Home Safe - Had a Wonderful Time!

Danielle and I arrived home safely today. We had a great time at the rally and certainly enjoyed meeting everyone. All the planning Amy & Steve did along with help from a number of others really made this a top-notch event.

Now it's back to work for a few days, catch up on laundry, and off to Ohio for The Wilds rally.

On the road to The Wilds

Stopping over at a KOA east of Indy, and the WiFi isn't great. Maybe there will be better access around Jackson Center. Good to hear folks have made it home safely. I'll get some photos out asap. I think most of mine were taken of the rear view mirror.

Glad to hear the Rally was a success. We made it back from my Family reunion in Kansas, had a flat tire in OKC (new tire $70). Darn thing was less than two years old. Want to hear the funny part we had tire monitors on them and it never told us the tire had went down. Somone flagged is and told us we had a flat. Hope to see most of you at the Branson, MO rally in three weeks.

It was great to meet you too, 76! Yes, we will rally again soon.

I just got home from my marathon Cape to Cairo to Jackson Center to the Wilds roadtrip. I just upload a bunch photos to TinLoaf's site at MobileMe Gallery. For some reason it loaded them in reverse chronological order. Duncan was my last photo (looking totally down in the mouth from being kicked out of his Airstream for PeeWee's interviews ). Oh well, now there are 354 total photos on the site for everyone. Thanks, Steve, for doing this for us.

TinLoaf or Steve, Your Picture Say it all.

You have the gift.
I will ask on Scott Caplen (Videographer) if he has had a chance to work on the video.
Thanks so much for all the great pictures.
Wow Steve, your pictures capture the real story.

Time to learn how to use this new camera and Macbook.
Mike

Don't give me all the credit. Only a small portion of those photos are mine. Just about everyone with a camera has contributed to the gallery and we're looking forward to Pee Wee getting home and uploading some of his.

I wish we had gotten pics of Lucius and Bob wearing those shirts, but I think the blog is a great read.

Cape to Cairo Celebrated on You Tube

African Caravan 1959 - 2009 You Tube Interviews and Caravan Cape to Cairo Film

I am sharing these You Tube films for you viewing.

========================================

A local group filmed 17 Airstreams on convoy from Cape Girardeau, MO to Cairo, IL “Cape to Cairo” took this first video.

From Kansas City, MO came a gentleman who owned an Airstream. He and a professional camera man left Kansas City at 3:30 A.M. to take part in the Cape to Cairo Rally, sponsored by Steve Burrows. One of the camera shoots was an informal Q&A with me. The first time I viewed these cuts were on U-Tube today.


Part 1
Part 5 are my comments when asked the following question.


“What advice will you give to a 22 year old, that has a tow vehicle and an Airstream?”

Part 5

The caravan video was originally posted on Sept 13 on post 500, but these new videos are something special. I did see that they listed Pee Wee's age on the caravan as 23, but that's not too bad for the limited time they had working with us.

Great stuff.

Steve
