Debbie & I had a great time. It was cool meeting many of you in person. I hope everyone made it home uneventfully.

Saturday after lunch, we wanted a "much shorter" ride than the full loop. Alvon led the way. Here's a guy who found Pocono Manor from California. SURELY we won't have any navigation problems, right? "Hey", Debbie says, "Didn't we pass that same propane depot hours ago?" I'm hearing "Gilligan's Island" theme music in the backround. About this time the fuel light illuminated, and the Ferrari behind us is weaving to keep his pickup submerged. I'm tellin' ya, its a wonner we didn't get etten by bars in them woods. I don't know if it was Denise or common sense that finally prevailed. We reversed course, but did see Ginger (that's you, Alvon) and Mary Ann later in the day, back at the ranch.

It wasn't me with common sense. I continued to follow Alvon back around the mountain and on that "hill" again. This time I took the 5 mph turn and 90 degree grade in first gear with my seatbelt tightened a bit more. I just knew the first time we took that climb I was going to fall out of the car and roll off the trunk lid into the path of Ron and his Harley. The only gas station we stopped at was closed or Bernie's fuel light would have been repaired. Wasn't it the perfect day for a drive? Absolutely beautiful!

No wonder I couldnt find you ,Bernie.You were off with that crew from ''Lost''! I ended up leading a group on the whole 80 mile trip.What a blast!!!We took the hill climb ,immediately turned around and did it again.To the lady in the orange Spider from Canada...girl you can drive.At one point she and I were 1/2 mile ahead of the rest of the group!

the best part, in my opinion is meeting you all. Bernie... a pleasure.
Denise, as always, much fun.
Craig...hmm, i wonder...naw! great to meet that face!!
and John. Thank YOU for joining my party. it would not have been near as nice had i not met you and your wife in person.

one of the greatest things i get to do at a FFO, is meet the faces behind the year long posts, new friends and old. That is what makes FFO fresh for me.

and, to my knowledge...Joe got home safe and sound. John, you certainly made it all the way. I fretted for no good reason, as i made it home safe and sound. Dave R...we fixed his cam cover bolt leak in Kane PA. Was there anyone else that is fixed now ? We didn't leave anyone behind, did we?
