^^^ I sure feel for you folks with knee and leg problems. Must be tough. 😐 You are an inspiration!
Aren't you the guy with the ultimate knee problem? So many of us have bum knees. Hmm, perhaps an RVM subgroup -- we could call ourselves the "wannabe butt kickers"

Steve and Annie -- your sleep number will change once start to cross over mountains. Higher altitudes cause the beds to feel rock hard, so you let some air out. Then as you descend they become mushy.

Storied past Air Force Vet (Combat Controller), got smart and decided I did not want to make a career of jumping outta airplanes and telling pilots where to drop their bombs so I got out, went to the University of Georgia (how BOUT them DAWGS!) Somehow or another wound up with a PhD in Psychology/Research/Applied Statistics Worked as director of research at the medical center of Central GA for 2 years then the Army recruited me for Human Factors research. Went to White Sands NM for 2 years then they selected me to go to Germany for 4 years, came back to White Sands, and be can doing research into missile launch systems. US Army Space and Missile Defense Command (SMDC) stole me from White Sands in 2004 and in 2008 US Africa Command (Based in Stuttgart Germany) "Borrowed" me from SMDC until 2012. Back at SMDC now designing satellite systems and other space junk <G> Or at least I will until the end of 2016 then it is retirement time!
There ya go! My life in under 200 words

Have read the manual on letting the air down at altitude. And we actually like the Sleep Number bed better than our bed at home. Ours is one of the top of the line models so that may make a difference - but so far never had a mush problem. At home we fight with pillows and toss and turn for neck and back - on the S N - we just make an occasional adjustment and it's all good. A much better nights sleep for us. Could also be the motorhome effect... lol... every thing is better in a motorhome 😎

I have every book the man ever wrote, even his Hoppalong Cassidy and scifi stuff. I have gone to places he described in dusters just to see how accurate his verbage was. So far I have to say he was damn accurate.

The consideration is the size of the mounds of bacon being mentioned.

Ummm, you didn't mention whether or not the colouring was correct??

Morning Steve. Morning Mary Ann!! I showed some old work friends the picture of Mary Ann and Annie with their fish the other night at dinner. I had not seen some of them in quite a while. They were amazed at the size of me and you Steve - and the fish too...
LoL... what a great time we had. And Ole John T Hall was a great guy and guide too! Would do that again in a heartbeat!!
Steve - - you're right. It was a great experience. Mary Ann is still getting mileage out of "the biggest fish" designation.
We are settlin' down a little bit for a while. Our adventures with the grandkids are done for now. It was sooooooooooo much fun to see their reactions to various gorgeous areas of this fine country of ours.
In late October we are going to finish off our bucket list of running the MH thru 49 of the 50 states. We'll check off Conn. (46), New Jersey (47), Maryland (48), and Deleware (49). Being just "part timers", we will have hit them ALL since September of 2010 while covering some 40,000 plus miles in the process. THAT IS WHAT WE BOUGHT THE MOTOR HOME FOR.
Stay safe, stay well, stay happy, and say "hi" to Annie (your better half).
Off to pick up a rental car. Bonita and the CR-V yet to be named go into the shop next week for hitches - brakes - bike rack - brackets - generator oil service - 45 point house and coach inspection - repeater for and 4 sensors for Toad TST. My wallet will be in intensive care following the extraction of its contents. But Bonita Bounder - Rainbow Rider is nearing launch time. Thank goodness we now have a rocket scientist among us to guide us!!
How about naming the toad Bonita's boyfriend....

Nola and I had Frickadellen with their famous green beans and I had mashed potatoes and she had spaetzle, Dave had the salmon, sauerkraut, and green beans and Bob had Bierox and green beans.
Can you see a theme here... their green beans are THE BEST!
