    Here's the scoop...The only Rat in attendance who brought in a trailer and had an axctual campsite staked out was W5IT...Dan, when you were there Don had stepped out to get some breakfast with Brickman and his wife...You missed them by minutes and they knew you had been there by the description given of the smelly, noisy wildman at the front desk trying to find a "ratfest"...Alas, no one had your cell phone number and they couldn't call you back...

    The visit to Nogas went well...Marc is looking well but was only able to sit up in a wheelchair...I could see he was really moved by how many showed up to see him...He has hair and his beard again and is very alert but can't form sentences...We left before we tuckered him out completely...

    Back at the campground, besides Brickman, Jen, Don and myself, other rats trickled in...Ricky, Mastertech and family, BODH and 44Mags, Cap'n Mike and Debbie and several others from some of the RV forums dropped in...I'm sure there are others I missed but I'll find them as I process the pics and post them...W5IT volunteered to cook and turned out some really great hamburgers along with several side dishes...Needless to say, nobody went away hungry...

    I had to be first to leave to give my puppydogs some yard time at the house (and also so everyone else would have somebody to talk about)...Dan, everyone asked about you and apparently nobody claimed the homeless, heartbroken goat that showed up looking for her boyfriend either......Ben

    I brought the goat home Ben and have got her penned up in the backyard in case you find her owner. I kinda hope you don't.

    Glad you guys saw NoGas . What he has been through is almost unimaginable. I'll never forget how he called me up after Hurricane Ike last year and asked if I was OK and needed any help. The man is a living Saint on earth.
