We "plan" to be there with our rookie Foretravel friends Jim & Allison Churchill. Looking forward to seeing everyone again.

Should be in the same spot unless someone else gets there first. It's first come first serve.

Peggy Trip and I plan to be there this year. We really missed being with you all last year. We will probably arrive a little early. Its much quieter and a good chance to develop more intimate relationships.

Bill you gotta be there. As they said " its not the same without you".

I'm headed to Mazatlan. Depending on the price of cold margaritas and hot senoritas, I may or may not make it. Looks like your drone will be the entertainment, Roland.

Been trying to get there since I acquired the '69 Dodge 270,(20 + years ago) and then the '78 Travco 320. The kids have them now and I have the '92 Grand Villa. My Nephew has been staying in it for a while but he now has his own pull behind. When he moves out in a week or so, I will start running the new one local. If it holds up, I am goin' to th' Q this year!!
