We expect it back in our hands tomorrow. We will probably stay a couple days for free at the Cummins place and leave out Sunday morning for Las Vegas.

So, one night in a hotel isn't too bad and getting the bus back in good shape is always a grand thing. Now, we wait to find out how much the ESW covers but as it stands, no poor house for us! LOL

Great news..

Sounds like profiling to me.

On a better note, we have landed in Fredericksburg. Resting up for the festivities to start. See y'all when you get here. Safe travels and many Ohmmms to those in need.

Guess who had moosebergers for dinner tonight? My first taste of moose -- I prefer it to venison. No gamey flavor at all and very lean.
