Okay awesome, that might work great for us. Likely we'd only have a couple days, cuz Allen's work schedule, but I'll start talking to him about it today.

Jackie and I are trying to recall the name of the band at the Arkansas GC's.

Who will be the first to remember?

A big hullo wave to the local mutants! That's awesome. I'm always up for camping together. C'mon spring!

So do I need to learn the secret handshake or make introductions or pass off all my worldly goods and pledge total obedience? Or just jump into the deep end of the pool?

Di, got your message and thanks again. Looking forward to all the laughs.

See? I kept this short but don't get used to it.

All you need are rope lights, lots and lots of rope lights....

BAHAHA. We did buy a set! They are already in Clora Mae. And it was Allen's idea. He's a crotchety old man and would give the Grinch, Ebenezer Scrooge, and Mister Potter a run for their money. So for him to "conform" to any RV tradition at all is nothing short of miraculous. For him to spring for the idea all on his own, well that made me think the Pod People had replaced him in the night! 😅😅😅

Rope lights provide a lighted pathway back to your coach, unless someone moves them, then refer to memory

The only problem is, the unit is in.. the Pacific Northwest... in the dead of winter.

I think I'm going to hire a driver to bring it to me in Texas. We'll shake out in Waco, Dallas and maybe OK city to see some friends.

Planned retreat to Colorado mountains during the hot season here, if I can figure out what to do with my cats for a month..cause they ain't coming along for the ride, sorry kitties.

Little Stella is doing great, what a doll! This kid, oh my gosh. You all are going to LOVE this kid. Such a great personality.

Congrats! Outdoor RV makes a great RV. We live within a days drive from the factory and can attest to the lovely weather in the PNW. Our ice crystals falling from the sky turned into rain and made the foot of crystals turn to mush. Now the mush has turned to solid ice. But it sure is pretty looking at it from inside where the wood stove is keeping us warm.

It's a shame I can't adopt Paul and have them play wherever GCs are held.

Waving back, see? [emoji112]

Oh, yes: the secret handshake! It is the responsibility of the first mutants you meet in person to teach you this very complicated maneuver. *

A Curiosity (mini-c, midi-c, etc) can mean any meeting up of mutants, whether for camping, dinner, coffee, adult beverages, or sky diving even. Whatever ... bring it on!

*Someone may have to check the Ancient Scrolls on this.

Cheers!
