We're parked, can't say camping here, at the Outdoor Resort on Table Rock lake in Arkansas. Of course, we were not around when the Boomers formed but I can just imagine it was much like this.

If you have a Country Coach, Prevost, Newell or one of the other top end coaches this is your place. We feel like the Clampit's in Beverly Hills.

You have to have a minimum 28ft Class A, no fifth wheels. Judy learned last night from one lady that people who travel in fifth wheels are strange. Dang, she thought some of our best friends travel in fifth wheels. Goodness forbid if you had tent trailer. Oh my.

We're suppose to be here till Thursday, not sure I can make it that long. Boondocking in a Wally World is more appealing.

Oh yes, they wouldn't let me put out my flamigos...no yard art allowed. I have them in the window...probably will ask us to leave before Thursday.

We miss our trailer trash friends..

Jim,

Look at some of your Texas Boomer friends - us, for example. Maybe the woman's on to something!!

Lordy! Lordy! Please don't let Roxie get near the de-cloaking switch. Heaven forbid that you come out of "stealth" mode and they find out what you are really like.

We miss you also!!! xx xx xxx

p.s., any "amber Boomer" sightings??

Jim, you better not tell them that you know people that travel in a silver twinkie.

You need to get a rocking chair and mount it on top of the rig and have Judy sit there and rock a bit. Of course she will need a bonnet.

I think I was almost in Arkansas today. It would have been better than here at Lake Tawakoni. I pulled in just before dark - after 7 hours of trying to get here. I unhooked my tow car while being attacked by millions of mosquitoes. I got parked and went to get my car only to find out that it wouldn't start. I just had to buy a new battery for the motorhome when I was coming home two weeks ago! Want to trade places?

Ok, Don......I resemble that remark!

I had something made for you at the rally. You just wait! It's nothing BIG but I think I will present it to you at the Christmas party.

Jim's to quiet! He must be having so much fun walking around with his nose up in the air.

I wonder if he circles them like Roxie?
