Saw a 26' GMC, painted beige/tan with brown stripe, towing a white Honda CRV, flying East on the Interstate at Vicksburg, MS. Time was 2:00 pm. I was going the other way.
Anyone we know?

Bill,
Welcome to the group/family/cult/asylum.
I am hoping you are safe and secure in Columbus, MS by now.
Many of us have had other RVs and coaches. I'm on my third.
You will soon find that the coach and the community it brings you into are unlike what you have known before.
Being a lifelong waterman, I liken it to the relation that we have with out vessels. More than just another thing you own, but a partner in your life adventures. For this reason, I like to welcome new owners with an altered version of how a new owner or vessel would be properly greeted;
May the Good Lord bless this coach and all those that set forth within her.
Welcome Bill and Company

Ok so that's Tom Phipps in Vicksburg MS, me in Jackson MS, and now Bill in
Columbus MS. Maybe when my back heals up from surgery we can do some "play
dates" as Tom's wife Marilyn calls them. :)

Back surgery is no fun, and no laughing matter. Keep well and I hope your new bride is taking good care of you.
I was thinking of the Barn Queen today while talking to a friend of mine. He was talking about an article he read long ago in Car and Driver in the good old days “...when what’s-his-name was running the place.” “David E. Davis?” I asked and he agreed that was the fellow who really knew how to run the magazine, etc. Well, I hope I have my names straight but I told him of your Barn Queen and how you bought it from him (or his estate). As I am not lacking for wind I continued to tell him of your wonderful videos and the important plot twist of a villain - hornets, wasps, or any nasty flying creature with daggers.
We both enjoyed a few fun moments talking about that wonderful find and how your Palm Beach is more of what I was looking for.
I hope your recovery is swift and successful.

So far ,there is a lot to learn. We just plan to bring it back up to operating condition and have a little lo-key fun traveling.
I appreciate everybodies help and I'm sure I'll need more sooner or later.
All our best,
Bilco
