Yeah we preached the Airsteam gospel last year on Friday night. Slalom pulls of Airstreams and an SOB amongst other Airstream videos. Pretty interesting seeing that SOB up on two wheels as that Porche pulled it through the pylons. When those SOB folks went back to their site after watching our Airstream flicks, they were talking in Airstream tongue! Amen brother!

Yep we sent our two guard dogs over to make sure he stayed inside. We kept him under house arrest that weekend. Didn't take much though, in selecting which dogs to send over I sent the arthritic one along with his blind and deaf pal.

Arthritis is lots worse then being deaf..
our deaf one would just as soon kill as look.

Let's put HER on guard duty and we can bury the pieces..

Rally-goers note:There's frequently a ranger too willing to enforce the Illinois state park no alcohol rule. Georgia captured our "no visible alcohol" interpretation -- "Merlot? Shh-h-h . . ." Come on, I'm in the know! I sip my Merlot during Moraine View from our local Central Dairy Chocolate Milk carton Wink, wink. ~G

Georgia, I'm sure we'd let you camp next to Jack if you'd make the drive up to Moraine View!

Yep I got the warning from the campground host last year about a wine event going on at a particular site. While he didn't do anything about it he did warn that the ranger lady wouldn't be as likely to look away. So while it's all in fun, be aware that I'd hate to see anyone end up with a summons from the ranger on duty.

A summons would be KIND. That must be a Missouri kinda thing??

it's more like a VERY large ticket/fine.

You're right,,, I DID forget the plain wrapper.. and I also did not post about female smokies.. too rude.

Illinois is white wrapper.. I listen to the CB all the time driving back and forth to Chicago. TOO BAD Eric got tangled up in it and pulled the antenna wires to pieces.. I need to get that fixed.

I LOVE the thing.

Rachelle! I hope you haven't inadvertently picked this years Rally theme. CBs, "choco-milk" and bunch of guys in trailers evading the smokies might ruin our reputation as fine, up-standing citizens.
Besides, I'd have to break out the old side-bander, heater, K40 antenna and "bleed" all over ya, good buddy. Got enough to fix in the GT without trying to whip that old radio back in shape.

73s. 21W9716 on the side,

Tom.

Airstream theme? Or maybe we could teach the youngsters about the 'Summer of Love.' That would definitely phase out (predate) any rastaman vibrations. Irae!

Here in Southern Illinois, today, an appropriate theme might be "a mobile Noah's Ark". In the past 24-hours, we have had 14 (yes that's fourteen) inches of rain. (and it is still raining) We have flooding in every direction, and the levee along the Mississippi River near the school where I teach is threatening to breech. Just a few miles from where I live, a railroad bridge was undermined by the floodwaters causing a Union Pacific freight train (carrying coal to a local electric generating plant) to derail seriously injuring two crew members. I was supposed to take my new Beetle to St. Louis for its first regularly scheduled service today -- decided it wasn't worth risking travel with roads flooded in every direction. I really think that I would rather be in school -- this weather is not much fun for Spring Break!

Hoping for some warm, calm, spring weather!!

Kevin
