Thanks for keeping up with your trip report Chet. I recall last year was a difficult one medically, and am glad you are both doing much better now.

Keep up the good work,

Steve.

Steve,

Thanks for your support.... you and sallu are roll models.

Here is a treat for you.... at Steamboat Bills, our favorite Creole Resturant in the Bayou Country.

There is a lesson in life.... and it may surprise you that I have shared some of our personal information... me too. But, most of us share info with our friends... and most of the people that will ever read this we consider friends... cyber though they may be.

The leason that I hope to impart.... Use your time wisely, use your toys, avoid angry people when you can, forgive them and move on.

I have learned from others.... nothing we do is original.

At the end of 2014 the financaly officer at the credit union tried hard to interest us in a 7 year investment... and I bought the sales pitch... (Anuity but he carefully never used that word)... he said "can't lose", no promise of gain, and in the fine print that I'd forfit 10% if I removed the money early.... I had 30 days to decide after application and acceptance.

It took me a three weeks to realize that in 7 years I'll be 81... "81" loudly rang in my brain... even I can understand that is old....

That horrible mistake told me... sometimes you really have to live in the "now"...

I want to see all of my TC and RV friends out using our toys... there is nothing more important than the rejuvination we get from getting away from the source of problems.... and we all know extended time in our homes on wheels can certainly free the mind, help the soul, make life peaceful and comfortable.

We've learned from all of you... thank you.

Please hit the road.... soon... don't waste your available time...

Sleepy

Anticipation .... Steamboat Bill's, the food is truly fantastic here... It faces I-10 on a frontage road east of the big bridge in Lake Charles.

... the root beer is too sweet for my tastes but I gave it a try. I'm more into a cold diet coke!
