ANNO III: THE ADVENTURE CONTINUES

 





Happy New Year! Well, here we are embarking on our third year of livin' Our Last Quarter in the BoomerBus. Thanks to all y'all who followed us and follow us now on this third chapter. I truly enjoy writing about our adventures and it is a great reward to know y'all find this blog amusing, informative and humorous. Please keep the comments coming. Thanks again.

So, we're still in RI with our daughter Gaiya, her husband Kevin and our grandkids Lola and Luca. We arrived here -sans BoomerBus- on 22 December and we'll pick it up on 13 February 2026 from NIRVC Nashville where it is currently stored and undergoing maintenance. We'll be heading to Florida. Specifically:

Feb 14 - Mar 7: Laguna Caribe RV Resort, Fort Myers

Mar 15 - Mar 20: Champions Run RV Resort, Ocala

Mar 21 - Apr 5: Sugarloaf Key KOA, Key West

Apr 7 - May 1: Margaritaville, Auburndale

Oct 1 - Oct 31: Splash RV Resort, Milton

In between our Florida sojourn we'll also attend the New Cornerstone Line Pre-Launch Rally at The Ridge RV resort in Sevierville, TN from 10 - 13 March. We've never really spent time in Florida. We've flown in and out during our professional years, attended a wedding in Orlando, visited Ybor City while in Tampa for business but never really had the chance to visit and explore the state. So, this year our goal is to spend some time in the snowbird state.

Over the holidays I had time to read blogs, magazine articles, internet posts and other RV lifestyle-related musings. I discovered most of these posts contain tons of very useful information. However, most of these postings target an audience which is not fully retired, Medicare & Social Security eligible and full time RVing. We're not RVing: we live full time in our MotorHome except when it is being maintained, repaired or improved.

Work? Again, while the information is useful to many if not most RVrs, it does not apply to us. Reasons for us to live full time in our MotorHome are to explore places we've never been to, visit old friends, make new experiences, meet new people. We approach every day with the anticipation for what it will bring. Work is not one of them. 

Our long range plans for the rest of 2026 are:

Memorial Day Week in Lake George RV Park, NY to attend our grandson's annual baseball tournament.

Attend the NIRVC Music City Expo in Nashville, TN in early June.

Visit friends in Wilmington, NC for a week after the Music City Expo.

Normandy Farms Campground, Foxboro, MA from 6/15 - 7/14

Visit family & friends at the Washington DC/Capitol KOA, 7/15 - 7/25

Relax at the Swan Bay RV Resort, Alexandria, NY, 7/28 - 8/27

That's all for now folks!

Oooops...forgot to mention we'll certainly make the de rigueur pilgrimage to Red Bay at some time during 2026.

January 30, 2026: Plans Change

Howdy y'all! So, plans change: we won't be heading to the snowbird state as planned. Instead we'll be parked in the Jellystone Watts Bar RV Resort in Loudon, TN from 12 February to 19 March. However, we'll be in Sugarloaf Key KOA, FL on 21 March. See y'all then!

PS: found this in a Dove chocolate. Seems appropriate.


February 14, 2026: Jellystone Watts Bar CG, Loudon, TN:
We are parked here in Jellystone in site 177 until 19 March. Unfortunately I have medical 'issue' which requires treatment for the next month. Fortunately, we found it early and we are near some of the best medical centers in the country. We plan to depart here the 19th of March and head down to Sugarloaf Key KOA in Key West, FL.
During the three months the BoomerBus was stored at NIRVC Nashville, we had several maintenance items addressed and a few repair items. However, as usual, there were some SNAFUs along the way.
Lessons learned:
1. Ensure you prioritize the list of maintenance and repair items and ensure the customer service rep understands what's most important to you. The temptation is to pick low hanging fruit first and leave the hard-to-do later and run out of time because the parts haven't arrived.

2. Insist on constant communication. At least weekly phone calls, text or email.

3. Ensure you understand what has been completed, what has not and why and where needed parts are in the supply chain. While it's great to have access to the Repair Order online, assuming it is clear what the status of your bus is can be a mistake and lead to an unpleasant surprise.

4. Ensure everyone involved in taking care of the BoomerBus knows ALL the information wrt the BoomerBus departure date and time.

5. Parts! Surprise, surprise! Long lead time. Prepare for it.

March 8, 2026: Still in Jellystone Watts Bar.
So, we've made confirmed reservations at Newport RV CG in the same site as last year, 401, from 8/27 - 9/03. We've reserved the Bellevue Grand Rail Dining Experience for 8/29. Wanted to do this last year but didn't do it in time. Got it this year. 

March 16, 2026: Still in Jellystone Watts Bar.
Yep, we're still here taking care of my medical issue but chomping at the bit to get on the road! We'll be leaving here on Thursday, 19 March in direction of Sugarloaf Key KOA Resort, FL. Crazy weather here today. Check these photos.

Yes, rain, sleet, snow & sunshine the same day.
March 22, Sugaloaf Key, Florida
Yes! We finally arrived here yesterday after three days of travel from Loudon, TN with stops in Tifton, GA and Fort Pierce, FL. We followed I-75S to the FL Turnpike in Wildwood, FL and finally on US1in Key Largo, known as the Overseas Highway, thru the Keys to Sugarloaf Key. Except for traffic near Atlanta and Orlando, the drive was without issues. Now we're ensconced in site 616 and about to start this part of our adventure. Livin' Our Last Quarter in The BoomerBus.
                                                         



March 24, Sugarloaf Key, Florida
We've been here a coupe of days and have begun to explore the surrounding area and venture outside the CG. These Key Deer are native to this area and are about the size of a fawn when fully grown.


We drove to Key West to the Naval Air Station Key West/Sigbee to pick up some essentials and just wander about before stopping for late lunch at Geiger RV and Marina Bar & Grill. Later we enjoyed Aperol Spritz at our campsite. 

Today we spent a couple of hours at the pool and were visited by 'Fred' the friendly iguana.



March 29, Sugarloaf Key, FL
We are still in Sugarloaf Key enjoying the laid back, relaxed and no plans lifestyle here. 

Went for bike ride along the old overseas highway which parallels the 'new' Route 1 Overseas Highway. Pic of our CG from the bridge.



Yep, here we are at the Bent Prop restaurant. Right on a canal. We watched folks come to eat by boat. I had the grilled octopus while Linda had Maryland Crab Soup....with cocktails of course. The next day we purchased stone crab claws and enjoyed them on the BoomerBus.



Went to the Broil restaurant yesterday, 31 March, with new friends Ron & Steph with Tony and Ellie. Broil is a restaurant on Cudjoe Key, just a couple of miles from our CG, well known in the Keys as the place to go for steak and seafood. Reputation deserved! I had a monster 14oz NY strip with diver scallops while Linda enjoyed a 6oz petite filet mignon. Both were superb. We washed everything down with a bottle of Lemberg's 2018 Spencer Pinotage from South Africa. The earthy and fruity aroma evoked memories of the bulldogs greeting us at the tasting room in Tulbagh, South Africa. Yes, we have leftovers which Linda will incorporate into a tasty meal at some point.
Our new friends are from MA. Listening to them chat was almost like another language with their thick New England accent. Tony races dragsters in the Bradenton, FL area and tows them in a 30' enclosed trailer with their super-C Renegade motorhome. Ron and Steph have been coming to Sugarloaf for the past five years and usually in the same site. They are parked across the road but in front of us. They gave us some valuable advice regarding routes we should follow when heading north. We exchanged contact info and hope to see each other on the road in the near future.

Tony, Steph, Ron, moi, Linda (partially obscured) and Ellie at Broil on Cudjoe Key.

We returned to Geiger's Bar & Grill for a late lunch yesterday. Here are some pics.







April 5, 2026, Sugarloaf Key, FL
We returned to Broil restaurant last night for our 'farewell' dinner. We just had a hankerin' for seafood and the menu listed a linguine seafood feast which we simply couldn't leave without tryin'. Lola, the bartender, prepared the Caesar salad as we watched. The Linguine Tuttomare had rock lobster -local to FL-, big, juicy and sweet scallops, shrimp and crab meat in a lobster caper sauce. We washed it down with a bottle of 2022 MAN Chardonnay from South Africa, of course!
Today, Easter Sunday, we'll prepare for departure tomorrow morning to Margaritaville Auburndale, FL where we'll be for approx three weeks.


Lola preparing the Caesar salads and us at the bar, as usual.

April 10, 2026, Camp Margaritaville, Auburndale, FL

Hello y'all! We are in Camp Margaritaville, Auburndale, FL for the next three weeks. It's an awesome CG with 400 large sites, two pools, splash pad, tiki bars and that laid back, 5 o'clock somewhere feel you expect from a Jimmy Buffet inspired vacation destination. We are super excited to be here.

We departed Sugarloaf Key and followed US1, known as the Overseas Highway, and marveled at the turquoise blue waters on each side of the road. We'll be back next year in March and April and meet up with Ron and Steph. Reservations booked!
As we reached the outskirts of Miami we followed US27, also known as the "Backbone of Florida" as it connects Miami to Tallahassee. The road is also known as the notorious "Bloody 27". Roadside memorials to those souls who have lost their lives on "Bloody 27" dot the highway at regular intervals. After an overnight stop in Moore Haven KOA CG where we endured a hellacious thunder and lightning storm, we made our way to Auburndale.
Yesterday we celebrated my birthday and went to dinner at Aria Steakhouse in Winter Haven, FL. First, we enjoyed cocktails at the Vitrum Lounge where Cassy crafted an awesome Old Fashioned with smoked cinnamon. Thank you. Then we were escorted to the restaurant proper where Victor, our server, listened to our stories of adventures on the road. He then had the sommelier, Sal discuss a wine choice to pair with the steak. Turns out Sal, is Salvatore! Yes, another Italian but born in New Jersey and grew up in Italy. However, he speaks accent free Italian and English like me. His Italian is perfect with a Roman accent while he commented that mine had the northern twang of which I'm proud. He and Victor made my birthday celebration special. Thanks guys. There it is: SERENDIPITY.
The past couple of days have been rainy and windy whereas the forecast now calls for sunshine and calm conditions for the next two weeks. So, we'll set up our camp, take photos and update the blog.

The family pool and splash pad. I'll post pics of the adults only pool later.





Me & Salvatore at Aria Steakhouse in West Haven, FL.





Pics of the adults only pool from a camp site overlooking the pool, Chill Bar & lake in the background. These four sites are "premier" and pull in so that you overlook everything. These sites also include a "green egg" (although it's clearly red/orange in the pic), a refer and two hammocks in addition to the grill and bar. We might consider one of these next year. Haven't made up our minds yet.

April 22, 2026, Margaritaville, Auburndale, FL

We are still parked in Camp Margaritaville in Auburndale, FL and enjoying the lifestyle and soaking in the sunshine. Pretty much sunny & 80F during the day and 65-70F during the night. Somedays the wind picks up in the late morning and blows at about 15MPH. We visited Lakeland, just a few miles from here and found a couple of eating establishments which we'll try in the next week.






A park in downtown Lakeland, FL.

One of the most unique tax collection buildings we've ever seen. Lakeland, FL.


Gillian and Katerina, artists & muralists, painting a mural at the intersection of streets in downtown Lakeland, FL. Their artwork is scattered throughout Lakeland. Their mantra is "Creating Community Through Color". Beautiful art.





Yeah, it's five o'clock somewhere, Spanish moss & a Florida sunset.


Charm City Restaurant: "Authentic Maryland Cuisine"

Not so much! We went for a late lunch/early dinner to Charm City based on a recommendation. The menu advertised authentic Maryland crab cakes and other seafood delicacies. You order at the counter and the food is brought to your table. The owners, originally from Maryland, also owned a restaurant in Maryland. Well, we were both excited -actually drooling- to sink our teeth into "authentic Maryland cuisine". Yeah, not so much. The "authentic crab cakes" contained more filler than meat and were simply soaked in Old Bay seasoning and salt. Could not taste the little crab meat there was. The scallops and shrimp (I chose grilled), while cooked to perfect tenderness were also drowned in Old Bay seasoning and salt. Just inedible.

It is not often we strike out with our food establishments. We've enjoyed lavish meals in fancy restaurants as well as simple food joints. Some meals are expensive and others are not but, most of the time, the food is excellent. So, after an $80 food bill and $20 tip, the $100 leaves us with a very SALTY after taste. 😑

24 April 2026, Carnaval do Brasil 

Just across our campsite we heard the infectious sounds and rhythms of Brazilian samba and karaoke voices singing with an enthusiasm which made it impossible not to move your body to the beat. The laughter and music just swept us up to the power of a Brazilian Carnival.  During the past week we met Jeronimo & Sinthia, Jaison & Bruna and Renato & Marianna and other friends who entered and exited the group at various times. Great people originally from Brazil.  While the affection for each other is clear, the love for each other is rooted in decades of friendship. Truly a Band of Brothers. They welcomed us into their circle without hesitation nor preconception. They shared their churrasco-style grilling featuring tender, flavorful cuts of beef seasoned with coarse salt and grilled mozzarella. They are the poster board of making every minute count. Grazie! πŸ’•





A Great Visit  

Kevin and Christine arrived this morning and it seemed like we were back in the late 90's when we first met. They now live in Dunedin, FL but we were neighbors in NoVA (northern Virginia) for almost a decade. A small, "Washington DC bedroom community" of approx 50 homes became our safe haven from the DC work-style and where Friday "porch beers" gave us the the chance to decompress and become normal again. When Kevin & Christine moved into the neighborhood they were the "young ones" but became an integral part of the Sandalwood Family from day one. Over the course of several hours we reminisced, caught up on news and just enjoyed talking with each other. Time flew. We'll meet up again dear friends.



30 April 2026

Well, our stay here at Camp Margaritaville Auburndale, FL is almost over. We will depart here on Saturday, 2 May and head toward Loudon, TN for Jellystone Watts Bar CG. We'll be there for a couple of weeks for our semi-annual medical tuneups. 

So, it's the season of the Florida Lovebug! Yesterday, a Tiffin Allegro Open Road motorhome pulled in next to our site. I simply HAD to get this photo and post it. The owners worked a couple of hours to clean it. 

May 5, 2026: Jellystone CG Watts Bar Lake, Loudon, TN

Howdy y'all! Yes, we're back in our old stompin' grounds of Loudon, TN for our semi-annual medical tuneups. Our first medical review was a successful one. No adjustments required. We'll be here for approx two weeks, departing on 16 May to Lake George, NY to watch our grandson play baseball in his annual tournament. We are scheduled to arrive in Lake George on 21 May.

Yesterday the campground was filled with shrieks of joy and laughter as Jellystone hosted an elementary school from the Loudon Public Schools system. Despite the weather hovering in the low 70sF, kids were splashing and soaking each other with the water guns as they enjoyed time away from the classroom and playing with friends. Our site offered prime viewing.


May 14, 2026: Jellystone CG Watts Bar Lake, Loudon, TN

Howdy everyone! Yes, we're still here taking care of our medical tuneups, seeing friends and spending time with family. In an earlier post I said one of the most frequent questions we get is "what do you miss" from the previous lifestyle. Well, again, we miss the people who enriched our lives not the 'stuff'. We can't even remember half the 'stuff' we owned in our previous lifestyle. However, we are living the best of both: full time RVing and spend time with friends and family during our semi-annual medical tuneups and Christmas holidays with our daughter's family in RI. Yes, we are fortunate.

Recently, our story was made public in an article written by Madison Hoff and published in Business Insider magazine. That story is legit. Madison worked with us over a period of a month to get her facts. However, several other articles, piggybacking on Madison's version, have been written and published online in Moneywise, AOL, MSN, etc. Those are NOT legit nor approved by us. We contacted the editor of Moneywise to address the misleading, inaccurate and false statements in the article by Amanda Smith. The editor apologized for Amanda's version and promptly edited her article, made the corrections and published a new version and an editor's note. Editorial integrity and ethical reporting are essential, especially in today's online world.

We will heading to Lake George, NY on Saturday and expect to arrive on 21 May to attend our grandson's Memorial Day baseball tournament. Afterwards we'll be heading back to Nashville for the third annual Music City Expo sponsored by NIRVC from 29 May to 4 June. For the rest of June, we'll be in Wilmington, NC visiting friends, Red Bay, AL for the required visit to Tiffin and finally in Normandy Farms, MA til 14 July. Yes, lots of travel but just more adventures for us.

These are my poker buddies. We've been meeting once a month for almost 20 years now to smoke cigars, drink booze, tell lies and play some poker. Yes, these are people I miss while Livin' Our Last Quarter in the BoomerBus. However, while rotating the location of each monthly game, they schedule at least one game to fit our schedule when we're in town.
Marty, Joe, Neil, Russell, Barry, me, Andy & Ron. Y'all enrich my life. Thank you & see y'all in November.

May 20, 2026: Matamoras, PA
Howdy y'all! We are parked in the Matamoras RV CG in Matamoras, PA. Yeah, this is a glorified gravel parking lot with some grassy areas within 150' of I-84. I mean I could throw a rock and hit a passing car. I posted a pic below. Great location for a stop while traveling to Lake George, NY. However, the traffic noise was incessant! It gets crossed off our list.



The BoomerBus & toad in site #46, Matamoras RV CG, Matamoras, PA.

Traveling on our roads and highways we've witnessed numerous examples of what we call "road insanity". A group of motorcyclists on their bullet bikes ignoring all rules of the road and weaving through traffic at hair curling speeds. Jacked-up pickup trucks with monster wheels spewing black diesel smoke as they straddle two travel lanes. A car weaving through traffic at speeds exceeding 100 MPH. Cars and trucks -even 18 wheelers!- tailgating so close you couldn't see where one vehicle ended and the other began. Insanity!

Yesterday, while traveling from Williamsport, MD to Matamoras, PA on our way to Lake George, NY we merged onto I-84, lanes going left, at the I-81 and I-84 split. Just as we merged onto the far right lane, an 18 wheeler decided to pass us on the shoulder! He barely made it -we thought- before the shoulder narrowed. We never felt his 'love tap' but the damage is quite visible in the pics below. I'm guessing his rear tire rubbed against the BoomerBus while another part of his rig twisted the Zephyr rock guard. I've since removed the rock guard and will try to repair it, as best possible, when we reach Lake George. In retrospect, his 'love tap' could have had disastrous results. We are fortunate.




So, during the third year of our adventure, I've replaced the motor which runs the BoomerBus steps, the black and grey water discharge valves and I serviced the Blue Ox tow bar system. FM! Well, YouTube is really helpful.


The motor for the BoomerBus steps. Yeah, apparently it is common to replace it every two years or so! Whaaaa??
The black and grey water discharge valves. A very small crack at one of the bolts resulted in a small, but stinky, leak.


The Blue Ox tow bar system. I had to disassemble it, replace washers and lock nuts and lube the tow bars & reassemble everything. YouTube: 30 mins; Me: 3 hours. 😑



Polka Palooza: Anda One, Anda Two...
Yesterday, 20 May, we participated in the Polka Palooza event hosted by the Riverview Inn on the grounds of the Matamoras RV CG. When we checked into the CG the owner invited us to the event and gave us two complimentary tickets. We had no clue but we accepted. The afternoon event included a meal, beverages including wine and beer and entertainment MC'd by JoJo. When we saw the sound setup we assumed this was a DJ who would play some polka music for the crowd which consisted mostly of members of social clubs from the surrounding area brought in by tour bus.

Well, JoJo turned out to be more than just a DJ. He is an entertainer who sang tunes, DJ'd a variety of music from Glen Miller to Kool & The Gang, led the crowd in sing alongs, got folks on the dance floor  and engaged the crowd in humorous question and answer segments. However, what made JoJo stand out was his outfit. A black suit with silver sequined trimmings, silver sequined cap and, the coup de grace...black quilted shoes. The Dude! 
The Riverview Inn hosts similar events from April through October, twice a month. If you stay in the CG, bring earplugs.




May 22, 2026: Lake George RV Park, NY


Here we are, for the third year in a row, ensconced in site #89 in Lake George RV Park, Lake George, NY. Here to watch our grandson, Luca, play in the annual Memorial Day baseball tournament. An uneventful drive from Matamoras, PA, we arrived here at 12:30PM on Thursday and, as we did in previous years, we went to the Log Jam restaurant in town for dinner. As usual, the bar was packed with regulars and the bartender never stops talking but has all orders under complete control. It was such a comforting feeling, as if we had been doing this for years. 


We both slept a deep sleep and woke up to chirping birds, woodpeckers pecking at trees, a light breeze which made the leaves on the trees sing and trees sway. Just two others trailers several hundred yards down the road. It's like being in the middle of the woods. So relaxing. 

Tuesday, 26 May, 2026: Pine Hill RV Park, Kutztown, PA

So, we attended Luca's baseball games on Saturday, 23 May. His team lost the first one but redeemed themselves by winning the second and capturing the Wild Card spot for the semi-finals. The weather was just barely tolerable for the first game but the second game, which began at 3PM, was played with a steady drizzle and 55F! As the Wild Card, they were schduled to play on Sunday afternoon. However, the weather was nasty but the forecasters called for a break in the winter-weather-like conditions so the organizers decided to play the elimination game. Luca's team played very well, determined to not just rollover to the #1 seeded team. They lost by one run in a time shortened game. They acquitted themselves very well and certainly deserved to be recognized as the second best team in the tournament. The #1 seed team had given up just 1 run in the previous games. They gave up 5 against Luca's team! His play improves every time we watch him. Here's a pic of us at the second game! 


😱😱😱😱

We later found comfort at The Olde Bryan Inn, est. 1773, in Saratoga Springs, where we enjoyed hot soup, alcoholic beverages and some hearty food!


Now we're in Kutztown, PA at the Pine Hill RV Park for an overnight  en route to the NIRVC EXPO in Nashville, TN. Two more overnights and we'll be there!

29 May 2026, NIRVC EXPO, Wilson County Fairgrounds, TN
Well, here we are again! After two overnights, an hellacious day-long thunderstorm which followed us along I-81S, a fuel stop where the BoomerBus gulped down 122 gals of diesel, we finally arrived today at the NIRVC EXPO. Our Open Roads fuel card saved us 55 cents/gal. We arrived on the "early arrival" day, quickly set up and took Izzy to the Vet. She's having an issue with blister-like stuff on her eyes. We'll see how the medication does for her. Anyhow, here are some pics of the fairgrounds as the RVs arrive and begin to set up. The EXPO starts tomorrow, May 30th.

**Official: The Music City Motorhome Expo - often referred to in the region- was held from May 30 through June 4 2026. Hosted by National Indoors RV Centers (NIRVC), this major VIP showcase took place at the Wilson County Fairgrounds in Lebanon, TN.**





Howdy y'all! So, here's a link to a YouTube video by RV Business Magazine which really shows what the 2026 Music City Motorhome Expo sponsored by NIRVC was all about. Hundreds of motorhomes to view and test drive, entertainment by Unfazed, The Band Perry and Chris Young, food & drinks and meeting old friends, making new ones and having a good time.
We came this close to trading our BoomerBus for a new 2027 Tiffin Zephyr. However, at 4AM emotions faded and our rational brains -what's left of them!- talked us out of the decision. Yeah, we're settled in the BoomerBus....and we LOVE IT! πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—

We departed the Wilson County Fairgrounds in Lebanon, TN on Wednesday, 3 June and traveled to the Atlanta South RV CG in McDonough, GA. Here's a couple of pics of us driving the BoomerBus & toad thru Atlanta.


NOTE: It's actually quicker and easier to drive straight through the heart of Atlanta provided you don't hit rush hour. We've now done it several times with the same result. 

6 June 2026: Atlanta South RV, McDonough, GA
We were here for three days to visit with Cathy, a dear friend and former colleague of Linda's when they worked in the Pentagon. They bear the invisible scars of that day, 9/11. They share the burden of the loss of friends and colleagues and comfort each other, knowing exactly what the other feels. While 9/11 affected everyone's life, those who were there relive that day in a way which cannot be explained. Thank you Cathy for being the rock Linda leans on every year on that day. Luv ya. πŸ’ž
We reminisced about the "old days", caught up on news of friends and exchanged stories of health challenges most folks our age -Boomers!- face.
Today, Saturday, we're on the move toward Wilmington, NC to visit another friend, Joanie. 

8 June 2026: Wilmington KOA, Wilmington, NC
So, we're parked at this KOA for a few days to visit another friend from the past: Joanie. Linda first met her after our return from Germany in 1989. They worked in the same office at Ft. Belvoir, VA. We've remained friends since. She and her spouse live in Leland, NC, not far from this campground.
Last night we celebrated our anniversary at Circa 1922, a former bank transformed into a restaurant in old town Wilmington which has received numerous culinary awards. Linda chose the pork cutlet Milanese style while I indulged in the scallops with caviar. We washed it all down with a bottle of Veuve Clicquot. Yum, yum, yum!






BTW: we are celebrating EVERY day of our anniversary month

    Just found the address of your blog and thought I would take a look at what you guys have been up to. Looks like after your delayed start, things are going very well and you are enjoying your continuing adventures. Michael mentioned you might have a stop in the Mid Atlantic this year. If that works out, let me know. Would love to come by and see you both. Safe travels!
