I`m still looking for a yellow 2CV. The closest I can find is the kiddie trailer in pic 84 which IS a bit 2CVish, but I don`t think it`s near B.A.

good excuse for me.

(in some of your collection shots, you bump up the sat quite a bit. Good camera work, but be careful of being too heavy handed with the sats)

you've been around quite a bit, Im envious.

Buenos Aires, we are just being lazy. Click on the fellows photo and it takes you to his flicker stream or whatever, all his photos. I had fun going through them and was commenting on a photo taken in BA.

What kind of stove is it?
Are mosquitos a problem with those open tent designs?

depends on where you are camping
depends on if you are burning the stove.

the tipi has mosquito netting for the doors.

the stove typically acts like a mosquito zapper.

neat videos to see it all in action. Certainly a great setup for all kinds of inclement weather and a great living space. Not for everyone, but neat to see how it works and functions.
