when the kids need double A's for their walkmans and game boys, and you lock the garage door so they cant get to your stash!

That happened tonight.

Well I have a new experience.

You travel a few states away with friends (in my case montana) and you bring your pickup to get all the RC crap in the back.

You also have trouble getting the 4 toolboxes and supplies up to the 4th floor of all the hotels even though you have 1 rc.

Your suitcase has more RC mags than clothes, and when your friends and you stop to fish at a river you find it's a nice crawling area so you chuck the pole and grab your gear.

You toast a battery pack in the hotel.

And the first thing you do when you get to each hotel is look in the phonebook to find all the LHS.

In end on a 10 day trip 7 days were RC and the rest were actually doing something else outdoors...

There's a huge windsock on top of a major bridge locally. Every time I drive past it I think "Now wouldn't that be great down at the field". Mind you, we'd need to add another 20 plus feet of pole to mount that windsock. It appears to be approx 12ft diameter at the opening...

Whem you look in your house find 4 planes five boats and three trucks and a rolling toolbox with spare parts in your dining room and your hobby budget is more than your living budget,but its all good and so is the lingering smell of nitro.

When you call every local pizza joint asking how big their biggest pizza box is, so you can make a genuine Pizza Box Flyer, and plan on giving the pizza to your friends so you can get to work right away, but the largest one you found is 4" too short. [&o]

When you drive 200 miles with your Savage X4.1, two Pizza Box Flyers, and two large toolboxes (filled with various tools and enough spare parts to replace almost anything and jimmy-rig the things that can't be replaced) to a bashing spot you found, but you spend your time searching for other bashing spots around there and didn't drive the car or fly once...

...and you plan on going back with a soft tail bicycle equipped with a rear rack, front bag, and under-the-seat bag so you can go to those bashing spots too far to walk, but inacessable to vehicles...

...and you were considering to buy a used bike trailer made to carry kids, so you can modify it to carry more RC stuff on your excursions.
