<span class="ev_code_BLUE">THE UNFORGETTABLE TEXAS BOOMERS MEMORIAL DAY RALLY 2005 AT SERENDIPTITY RV PARK IN PALACIOS, TEXAS</span>
As always, when the Texas Boomers get together for a Rally, we never know what to expect! Despite heavy rains, muck and mud, we managed to have a WONDERFUL time!
The tornado that passed through the marina ripping 3 shrimp boats from their mooring and tearing the roof off a building in/near the RV park
was NOT on my planned schedule of activities! Thankfully no one was injured and thankfully none of our rigs were damaged!
<span class="ev_code_YELLOW">KUDOES BY THE KILOMETERS</span>
There are many people to thank for the success of a rally...I only co-ordinate the wonderful volunteers who come in and make everything go smoothly. I kindly appreciate your accalades, but I couldn't do it without the help of the Texas Boomers! Each one of us pitches in and does what needs to be done. All I say is ....GIT 'ER DONE and ya'll help carry the load!
