So yesterday we arrived at our campground after getting our coach (borrowing Terry's word here) out of the body shop and a certain someone dropped a set keys down our Techma toilet.

Trace had a good idea a couple of weeks ago. She requested a thread so we could keep up with the class of 2014. This can help us keep up and support each other in our new adventures.

So today at lunch break at the Rally we came back to our rig and our sweet neighbors said,"Please we're not being nosy but was that black there on the front of the rig?" Um, noooo.
