ReplyDeleteGreat to see you and Donna out with Dennis and Donna and having a good time. Sam, just be careful and do not step on Donna's foot - that would be the end of you, I think!

ReplyDeleteGood to see you out on the road. Enjoy
ReplyDeleteGlad to read your update.
ReplyDeleteMany years ago we bought one of those Cracker Barrel rockers. We found they are just fine for sitting in while waiting for your table to be ready.
But in actuality, they are really uncomfortable. We put ours out in our 3 season room where it got little use.
Hoping the weather remains fair and pleasant for the rest of your trip.
Great to see you on the road...Enjoy!!!! In the RV groups its Happy Hour,,,,not cocktail hour! LOL
ReplyDeleteBe safe out there my man!
