Update
Sue from Drifters called - and
The word is this - they are trying to get us grouped together - but it will be impossible - the snowbirds are starting to arrive and they are running out of spaces - if you are on the fence - time to get off... lol...

All sites have picnic tables but they are heavy... they will work with us to put some thing together or we can gather at the largest site - whoever has that - and bring our chairs and side tables etc there. We will work it out. I am excited... !!

I know ... I am so sad! It had close to everything we wanted and looked pretty well-cared for. Would've replaced carpet and anything else that was worn.

Hopefully, there'll be another one somewhere soon.

Ok, I left that out. We've got traffic with lifetime updates, too. Another nice thing to have, for sure ... especially for DW, since she is a self-proclaimed "directionally challenged" person and HATES to drive in heavy, congested traffic.

Steve, does Annie drive Bonita very often? If so, how long did it take her to master it? Can she back it into any space? Kate can learn, I know. Might help her to know how many other DWs out there can handle a big DP!

First down load the logos from a few pages back or I can PM them to you. Then if you want it under your handle under the left side then go to "user CP" and scroll down to "Edit Avatar" then upload the one you want, think you have to click the box to reset avatar and the scroll down to the bottom and click save.

Annie has not yet - but she will this winter. Fear not - open eyes and look at truckers these days 1/2 are women if not more. Look at Lisa on Ice Road Truckers - and School and City Bus drivers. Driving these things is not a sexist activity believe me Annie is about a buck twenty and she will drive it.. it's just been a timing thing. Lol

Annie is smart - she know if she ever wants to leave me - running off in Bonita is the better bargain. The rear CRV seat folds down - but it's no Sleep Number bed...

The three deer are about 60 or so feet from my lawn chair. Tim the area is crawling with them. If you come this way maybe we can entice Les into providing Rattler for some true wild meat dining.
