Thanks everyone for making it a great weekend!

A big thanks to you for letting Rebekah come for a visit! I'm sorry it was so late when we came to get her! She sure did like spending time with her new friend Fionna!!

What a great weekend. As usual Rhonda and Dave did a heap of organizing and setting this whole shindig up. It was awesome and we all had a grand time. Not to mention wonderful food, some great "very happy" hours, and super folks who pitched in. Also, thanks to "Woody" and Mike for the firewood! I don't think there is a more casual, more fun rally than the M-D group. We look forward to the next one! Dave says the third week of August, 2011. It's on our calendar! Did someone say that Ralph was bringing corn and more recipe??????

Thank you Larry and Lou for all your breakfast help. I certainly would be lost without your help. You two are pancake pros!!!

We had a quick chat with the campground owner before we left and she said she is pretty sure that the 3rd weekend in August will be a race weekend next year. We will probably have to rethink that date if we want to go to Indian Creek next year or look into another campground.

I'm sorry it leaked on you Jess. We didn't have time to deal with all the issues!! Just think though, you were the first one to use it and probably the only one for quite awhile! Oh and I hope the bites go away quickly. Girl, next time use some DEET!!

I'd recommend this campground to anyone for a nice rally spot!

Great job Rhonda and Dave. Thanks for all you did to make it fun for the kids!

Thanks Steph. I am just so sorry that Sam's hat broke! I hope he has enough fun to overcome that disappointment.

Thanks Dave and Rhonda,I know its been said many times and Here it is again THANK YOU THANK YOU. What a great time we had,as usual.
Ralph,thanks fer the corn I did enjoy it,and by the way,whats receipe look like???. I think that's why I didn't make the campfire and didn't feel so well even Sunday morning at breakfast. For those who dont know, I dont drink,but I think I did,LOL.
Mike
You are very WELCOME. I know that item will be put to good use,instead of rattlin around in the rear compartment of our AS.
GOOD LORD WILLING,count us in for next yr. It was great to see old friends and make some new ones. Hope to see you all again at least one more time this yr.

Wow, happy birthday to Mom! I can only hope to make it to 98. I hope whatever was ailing you is better now. Take care and we will see you down the road.

Paco is back to Paul today.

Great job Dave and Rhonda!

You're welcome Sue. I just wish I had time to see your trailer. I heard such rave reviews about it! You will have to come next year so I can have a second chance to check it out!

The good news is there's only 363 days until the next Metro-Detroit rally!

Another awesome job Rhonda and Dave -- it was great, as always!

You aren't kidding when you say poof. A blink of the eyes and it was over. I try to sqeeze out every minute but it always seems too short!

And last but not least, Mike & I would like to thank everyone for their donations to the raffle... it helped get some of the stuff off our wedding registry on into the Argosy for next year! (Thanks as well to Shawn for not winning everything! It's totally an Argosy thing now!)

Looking forward to next year and having the Argosy with us!

Loren & Mike

Congratulations on your big wins! I also want to say congratulations on the upcoming nuptials! I am so excited for you!

I am not responsible" and now I dont think Larry is either!!

Cheers and Thanks again it was great...

Bill

Thank you Mike for bringing the most interesting firewood! I think some people took several pieces home with them.

One last shout out to Dan and Dawn for all their help with breakfast and to Jeffrey for bringing the eggs and letting me borrow your griddle. It was good to know we had some eggs that were safe from salmonella! Thanks to you all for bringing the great raffle prizes. Linda, I am definately going to steal your "crappy gift" idea!! Larry and Mike, thanks for feeding the fire! Please forgive my foggy brain if you helped and I forgot to mention you! I am just a little sleep deprived.

But most of all, I want to say thanks for the laughs and the memories. All the work and the planning really has nothing to do with it. It is such an awesome rally because you guys are so fantastic. Can't wait for next year!!

Rhonda and Dave, All Thanks to you two for all the work you put in to make this rally a success. It would not be the fun nor go so smoothly without your hard work. What you did for the kids was a great hit too.
