Big bummer.... Roger has to work tomorrow morning and cannot get out of it, so now we hope to be there by noon or one. There is even a possibility that he may have to go back home Sat night to work Sunday. Our friends are on their way now, so have have fun with Joan and Fred without us tonight. They are cool people so you guys will have fun.

Too bummed to find the sad face smiley thing.

Midwest Memorial Day gathering Rend Lake, IL

Murphy's Law has been busy -- I headed for Benton at a little after 2:00 p.m. Made from my house to Interstate 57 without incident so I thought all was well. In less than two miles on I-57, I had two disturbing incidents of sway -- not as bad as prior to the earier rally but enough to disuade me from continuing.

I am to the point where I have only one other modification that I can make to my setup, and if that doesn't work it will be switching to the Suburban. One thing is certain if I switch to the Suburban and don't have problems it is defiitely something with either the Cadillac or the hitch setup on the Cadillac.

In any event, I will be on the road tomorrow morning with hopes of arriving at the campground about 11:00 a.m.

Kevin

Tin Loaf you "ROCK"

I wanted to thank Tin Loaf for setting up another great album too share the pictures from the Memorial Day weekend 2009.

I wish we could have made it but since we couldn't the pictures are a treat.
WHO MADE THE AS CAKE? AWESOME JOB! Loved it!

I was glad Collin had lot of other kids to play with.
It looked like a Lab Fest for the dogs. Makes me miss our Labs (RIP)

Know one told me Jack Black was gonna be there! (In one picture I thought the guy looked like Jack Black)
Looked like everyone had a great time.....Thanks for sharing

I meant it as a complement...I think Jack Black is not only hillaiorus....He's very cute.....Now Joaquin Phoenix? That paints a completely different picture...
