Officially Underway

Thanks to Mike and Colleen for hosting a great 10th Anniversary Reunion. The weather was outstanding and seeing so many great folks was great fun. Depchief put us onto some great cheesesteaks and seafood and Don Morgan (the Mayor) hosted morning coffee breaks with those great cookies baked by Bev (the Mayor's Boss ).

We arrived home today after allowing the great folks at Freightliner in Gaffney to lighten our wallet providing some needed service on the rig. Our trip home was uneventful but we did see a sad reminder of the potential perils of motorhome ownership....a completely burned out Tiffin DP on the side of I-26 between Columbia and Spartanburg, SC. It was still smoldering when we went by. The folks at Freightliner in Gaffney told us it was one of their regular customers heading to a Saturday college football game when their coach lost power and burst into flames. The occupants escaped safely and the cause of the fire was not known at the time.

Thanks Mike and Colleen!! The rally was fantastic, all the planning you put into this really paid off.
We always enjoy catching up with old friends again and making new friends. Putting faces with screen names was an added plus.

Food, dinner at Ryan’s, show, and everything was great as well (diet starts immediately :-)…

We arrived home last night, Mother Nature greeted us with a “NorEaster” of her own, making for quite a travel day.

Hi everyone,

Many thanks to Mike and Colleen for all the hard work and planning for the Workhorse Rally and the iRV2 Rally. We had a great time at both. Good job, Mike and Colleen.

P.S. The 4 starfish traveled well back to Mississippi and are walking around in their new fish tank. They did not like the turbulance in their buckets as the RV rumbled down the road, and they spent most of the trip buried down in the sand. So everyone one, including us, was glad to get home after a long trip.
