Just want to thank all of you for attending our rally. We had a great time. So many helping hands!!! All positive attitudes in spite of the weather (did it rain?) made for an enjoyable time for all. No complaining and whining, just a fun "rocking" group of Airstreamers doing what we do best....Does life get any better than this?

Thank You!!!
We had the most amazing great time!!
Thank you to all the wonderful members of the New England Unit.
You welcomed us warmly and made us feel right at home. The memories of this weekend will make winterizing less bitter.
Both host couples did an extraordinary job in organizing and carrying out this fun rally.We can't wait for the next one.
We'd like to especially thank Chef Doug & his assistants for waking up at dawn every day and despite the pounding rain that never stopped, they all worked hard at the stoves and prepared many wonderful meals for all of us. We are very grateful. (spotless and constant wiping of tables was also provided as well as a continuous personal supply of extra paper towels...thank you)
Also, thank you D's for the private wine tasting, it was one of the many highlights of the weekend. It took all the chill out
Rain = mud but that did not stop several willing participants who organized an informal 'vintage tour' by inviting a few of us into their AS despite our muddy boots What a great experience.
Finally, last but not least thanks to the Mr.Messy family for their kind friendship and help in making sure we always knew what was going on so we didn't miss out on anything.
Hope to see everyone again soon!!

Looks like fun and wine was had by all. I don't really understand the thing with the gloves. Is this some sort of initiation ritual that we should know about? eeeek!

Another great outting!
We had sooooooo much fun this weekend, we didn't want to leave. We have never been around so many nice people in one place. You guys are all great! We look forward to many more years attending rallies with our AS FAMILY!
Thanks to KIMILI & her hubbie for jumping right in as old time NE members. Your assistance with food preparation and guitar entertainment was really appreciated by all. We would love to have you & Michael join our group.
Also....our newest members Clark & Michelle.......what a touching story how you acquired your vintage AS. The story begins like this. Two years ago when they got married, for their wedding gift they asked everyone to give to their "AS dream". They purchased a Vintage AS, started some restoration and just joined our NEU. WOW! We are the lucky group for acquiring such wonderful folks!
Wine tasting went over very well! We had such a good experience we came home with 7 new bottles to enjoy.

Great! We really hope to see you folks this summa! (New England for Summer).
Oh! What do I see in the latest Yankee Quipper but your names as new members. Welcome! I believe you will enjoy the WBCCI New England Unit. There is a planned Scusset Beach Rendezvous for 2006. If you have your trailer with you be sure to ask to be parked in the "generator" section. That way you can power your tacky lighted pink flamingo(s) and palm tree. That's what we all do!

M&M -- Thanks for sharing the pics! Looks like we missed another great rally. We spent the weekend at home nursing two little girls with colds -- didn't think you all would appreciate us sharing the sniffles. Now that I see your germ-free environment, I'm pretty sure it was the right decision.
Chuck -- some excitement! That'll teach you to forsake a N.E. rally for an SOB event.
We're sorry too that we missed meeting the new folks. Hope we'll get a chance to meet you at a future N.E. rally. - D&J

Hey Over59 How was lunch at Coral? Earl and I saw your AS and didn't find you in the Vin Bin. After driving by we saw you guys enjoying your lunch in your window seat!! You looked to cozy to interrupt.....not to mention we had that drowned rat look. Thanks for the nice comment.
