All:

FYI - There was indeed a "boatload of snow here last night", however, the Newmar work force showed up for work as usual; the production line was full-steam-ahead, as if it was just another sunny day. Amazing, when you think many of the Newmar production line employees ride bicycles to work. You talk about an admirable dedication and work ethic.

Great pictures, Jigs! Thanks for posting. If there is any way you can do it, can you go back to the picture you posted of your group at the Athens Grill (you just know I was going to catch that one!) and tell us who is around the table? Putting the names with the faces is much appreciated.

You are all having a once in a lifetime experience -- and it is very apparent that you all understand that as you are there. It is an experience we will never, ever forget.

Fun to hear the story about staying in the coach with the single digit temps and all the snow. That was exactly and precisely our experience. We took delivery almost a year to the day and when we were there, there was only one other couple who were getting work finished on their 2012 Dutch Star. We had a ball with them taking about all of our adventures together in our coach and theirs and having plenty of wine, cheese and fun. We learned a lot from them and just had a great time. As was said, the hydronic heat kept us toasty the entire time and we could not have had more fun with our adventure.

Enjoy all the fun this year -- all of you.

Sorry about the confusion with the pictures aligning with the captions. Several attempts to combine them correctly on my iPad was apparently too complicated for a simple mind.

Anyway, The picture of the five of us at the Athens Grill is from left to right: Lloyd (BattChief), Donna, Me, Gail and Jeff (Jeffreys).

If I am unable to become more proficient posting pictures on my iPad while in Nappanee, I will post them from my desk top when I get home. I beg for your patience.

Fantastic Jigs! You must be so excited. If it were me I don't know if I would have the patience for the paint shop!
