I got back home a couple of hours ago from spending the day down there today.  Great, great people and some super food...more than will be eaten in a couple of days. (That seems to be a common trait at these  get togethers)  There was some of the best sausage, smoked cheese, and homemade pastrami that you have ever eaten.  Rick did most of the cooking on his Old Smoky.  Everyone was on their best behavior...which I attribute the super ladies present and their somewhat successful attempts at civilizing the males of the species.  The weather was perfect.  Hats off to all the work that was put into the preparation of  the event.  I'm sure there will be pictures posted...one I know which will be incriminating and deserves honorable mentioning in the post office.  I won't say of whom it was, but his initials are nepas.  Dee

It was flammable and there is some indications that the occupant of the wheel barrow may have been lit too.. Dee

My Pictures From The KOA Weekend

My wife, Maureen, and Tim’s wife, Kaye, at the Crab Shack.



And here is “King Crabby”!!



Tim (the Aggie) is “welcomed to the SEC” by my wife, a UT Vol!



Tim is unloading the wheelbarrow that Dee brought for Rick to ride in.



Chrystal, Rick and Chris getting Rick comfortable in his “ride”.



Art and Tim having some fun in Savannah at a hat store.



Cap’n Tim—ARRRGH!!



We had a wonderful time in Savannah and at Rick’s.  It is always great to finally get to put names and faces together after corresponding on various forums.

I think we should call it the "RRR".... ( Rick's Remote controlled Recliner")....he just tells Chris where to go and there he is!
