Hello Overlanders!
I'm John, the latest boot! Glad to join up and look forward to Overland Bound meet-ups.
2) Midwest City, Oklahoma (suburb SE of Oklahoma City)
3) 2019 Tacoma TRD OR
Old Man Emu lift w/Dakar Leaf pack
A.R.E. DCU Wedge topper on back and wooden coffin rack, drawers and shelf.
(for once, being short paid off! I can lay flat in the 6' bed.)
4) Overlanding experience: USMC: Jeeps, HMMWVs, 5-tons, Gama-Goats, shelter halves/GP tents.
Used to go camping and fishing out of my S-10 and Suburban, but it's been a couple decades since
doing any overlanding or camping. Just getting back into it, but I feel like boot!

Welcome Dave & Michelle! I'm your neighbor (Whidbey Island)! I try to do a monthly meetup/campout every month, and I'm currently planning a campout for later this February just east of y'all! Keep an eye out on the Rally Point page and on the forums.
Here are a few tips to get you started:
-Check out the local region's forums for events and meetups in your area.
-Check out the Rally Point system and the Member Map for events and other people around you. Super helpful.
-Our region also has a FB page.
If you need anything, feel free to PM me or tag me in the forums at @Gabriel Bozeman.
Cheers!
