Back from Falluminum safe and sound. Ronnie and I had a great time and look forward to seeing everyone at Springstream if possible.

We just got home safe and sound to Nashville (although the Espresso Wagon is safe in Sautee) We will post some of our pics and some taken by an aspiring photographer. What a great time!!!

We made it home safe - in fact made it home in time to see Tina Turner in concert at Philips Arena with Karen and the kids. No Ike T there either!!!

Thanks all for just a fabulous time, food, friends. We had a blast! Now usually I take 500 pictures, but for some reason my camera this trip was barely turned on. Hopefully others have more pictures than I do!

Thanks for the pictures!

Sugarfoot, Thank you so much for all the pictures! Burt and I had to cancel plans to attend, so your pictures helped keep us posted. It looks like the number attending is really growing. It looks like a perfect week-end.

Thanks again,
Pat

Smile Hearfelt thanks!

Heartfelt thanks from us for making us feel so welcome!
When things settle down a bit I will post pictures.

I do have a 1-minute video (very poor quality, but video/audio nonetheless) of our entertainers doing the "Georgia sattelite thang." If I have your permission (from our musicians). I will post it to you tube and provide you a link (and put it on my blog). Who knows, maybe ya'll will be discovered!

For those of you lurking or reading and have never been to an Air Forums rally, GO! They are tons of fun... Like camping with family (the cool family members!) food, fun and fellowship... oh, and lots of cool trailers!

We missed Falluminum but it looks like you all had a great time. We wouldn't have expected anything less. Thanks to everyone posting pictures. I look forward to seeing the video on youtube.

Enjoyed another great rally, even if we didn't get very much sleep. Kids had a great time with their scooters and with "Big Jason" and no one got hurt!

It was wonderful to visit with old friends as well as make new one's! (Big thanks to Hank & Lois for the bag of treats...big, big hit on the ride home!)

That's a pretty scary thought! I seriously doubt the recording quality will in any way detract from the quality of the performance (or lack thereof). While I cannot speak for the other artists involved, I am not currently under any recording contracts and therefore cannot object to however you choose to dispose of your privately owned footage (recorded at a public venue).

Hope to be back up in the spring!

(Thanks Alan & all for organizing the event!)

We had a great time -- wonderful people and such a beautiful location! We really did enjoy ourselves and appreciate the fellowship and hospitality of such a gracious and friendly group of folks. Thanks again Alan for putting this all together.

Julie and I also had a great time in the cool GA mountains. We're very thankful of the work that went into organizing this event again. Thanks Alan!

I hope we'll get a chance to attend many more of these forum rallies in the future.

See you all down the road.

The remaining sites went quickly over the weekend, so if you want one you should get it soon. There were 35 Friday, by Sunday only a few in the pet section...where we needed to be.

By the way no thanks required for organizing these Rallys as they are such a fun
thing for all of us. Making a connection with the outdoors and all the freindly folk is worth whatever time it takes to put it together.

So who wound up with the "How to Back A Trailer" book? That's one I was really hoping to be there to win, darn-it.

My crew had a great time! The kids and dogs wore themselves out. Even Laura (my friend from Maryland) said she needs to come back next year. Melissa was so excited about winning the flamingo shower curtain and promptly hid it when we got back to our campsite. She has been looking for one for about a year now. She may even have it up by this afternoon!

Thanks to Hank and Lois for the use of a 30 amp cord. I was beginning to think that I had major electrical issues and that's not a good thing! That is first on my "new" list of things to buy.

It was great seeing everyone again. The fellowship and food go unsurpassed with this group. See you on the road!
