Alf-- its not a structured rally, but if you leave on Saturday, you'll miss our fabulous potluck dinner. Who knows, there might even be possum casserole! We had Canadian campers at one of our first rallies-- they brought their Trillium for us all to see. They had been down to Florida and (IIRC) were stopping off on their way back.

Come on down! We'll look forward to meeting you.

The potluck is indeed fabulous.

Yeah, this looks very doable for me! If all goes well, I should be home, all recuperated from GEORGES SPRINGIN' THE BLUES[jax bch,fla], Hanna State Park campout, or better still, just meander up thru Georgia, stopping where ever, or where good sam advises me, and show off Rollin'Home for ya'll! Be advised, some are gonna be SHOCKED at my southern accent! By the way, does anyone know if a 20% discount is IN ADDITION to my new, as yet unused 10% sams club discount?

Hi: harryjhere... I would have never known you had a "Southern accent"? Does my being a northerer... show???
I now have the week off work so we can continue to plan "Our Escape Hatch" trip south!!!
Discounts aren't usually allowed to be piggybacked together. We're also Good Sam members.

Alf, you got us thinking we might alter our route and do the Kentucky Bourbon thing as well. Might stop in Cleveland too, for the R&R Hall of Fame.

The tour of the Maker's Mark distillery is well worth the detour. I would pass on the Jim Beam tour. You don't get to see as much of the operation as you do at Maker's.

If I can get my rig put back together enough by April I may just have to head South from Indy and join up with the group.

Hi: Spanke...Thanks for the tours insights. I just hope I'm not leading anyone astray by suggesting a visit to Bardstown...Nelson County Kentucky and area!!! I'm partial to Heaven Hill...the older the better. I wonder if they do tours???

We should have a large group this year. Just heard from 3 couples from Kansas that are coming. We may have to get a bigger gift for the longest distance traveled this year. We have been averaging between 25-30 campers but looks like we will top that this year and it's still a long way off.

This area is a great place to spend a weeks vacation. So much to do its hard to fit it in a couple days. Plus some of the friendliest people you ever you will ever meet. :-)

Hi: TomP... We are reserved in A loop...but not on the river so my wife says. Looking forward to meeting everyone and having a great time. I also managed an extension on my vacation week so we don't have to leave till Sun.am!!!
Still looking at a slight diversion into Bourbon history... but I will try to bring some Canadian bottles of beer for sampling also...
