This has been a great week visiting our friends and making new ones. Hope everyone can make Montgomery, Texas in the Spring. Teri and I are trying to make plans to winter in Az. We look forward to seeing our Quartzsite friends again.
Hope the Coos Bay rally is a good one. Wish we could make it but we can't. Looking forward to the pictures from there.
Life is good,

You are welcome Dennis. I thought sure you would be here. Will be several passing through Memphis tomorrow. I had lots of people ask me for directions down that way.
Just finished posting the last of my pictures.

We really hoped to be there -- unfortunately family issues prevented our trip.
Will be ready if folks need anything on there way through Menphis!
Off to see your latest photos.

I would like to add my thanks for a great bunch of photos. I really appreciate seeing all the nice coaches. I will have to work real hard this spring to make mine look half as good.

Good Lord Mark,
Don't let that stop you. Get to a rally. Dan's pictures are great and even though I was there, he has pictures of things I missed. But, he can't put up pictures of the off-hand discussions and seeing small changes that do make a rally so rewarding. Dan tries to get pictures of lots of those, but the poor guy is only human and has a limited amount of time to sort the arm-load of pictures to select those he posts.
If our coach is not the shabbiest one on the lot, it would be interesting to know who won that prize. Does it stop us - Never. I don't think I have been to a rally that some coach didn't come in on a hook, and more often than not, some crew volunteers to make a road trip to get someone the last hundred miles or so. Mind you, this is not a suggested mode of operation, but I got there and had to have JimK fly in a flexible brake line.
As I said, Get to a Rally. We got to our first rally, I knew just about nothing, I didn't even have the coach with me. I had only driven it the 23 miles home and owned it all of six days. If you can't make a GMCMI rally, get to any rally in striking distance.
This is one great family.

Mark,
Matt is correct, GO TO A RALLY! Nobody cares what your coach looks like and how it is finished! When we were remodeling our first coach we went to rallies with a card table and chairs and air mattress as we rebuilt the interior and things got finished it got better. The coach is just half of it, the people are the rest and the best part.
