This morning is kind of stormy weather wise. We are all going on a cruise on the Branson Belle for lunch so we will be leaving in just a little while. Old Fella continues to do well and enjoy the attention he is getting. I talked with Springwood Kennel and was told Suzie is doing well. She now has everyone at the kennel exactly where she wants them.
ABC Campground had a rally going on with bikers. It has been noisy and there was a problem with traffic with the bikers running around the campground with their loud machines. When we come back we will make sure they are not here. There was a problem this morning involving Sue Petty and one of the bikers, but we won't discuss that here at this time.
Okay, it's time to go, see you later.

There were 13 of us that went on the Branson Belle. What a meal. Choice of steak, shark, mahi-mahi, and a couple of other entrees. That was after the salad and prior to the excellent dessert that they furnished. We ate in the private dining room and then had excellent seats for the show. You couldn't even feel when we left the dock or returned. What a smoothe ride. Well, that's all for now. Toodles.

This morning promises to be nice weather and we will be out and about very soon. Everyone is having a great time encluding Old Fella. Yesterday at the agility dog show he got excited and made his rounds checking everything out. He isn't letting his pain slow him down much, he has a great heart and attitude about things. Maybe I could take a few lesson from him.
It's early Sunday morning, the end of our rally and goodbyes/fair wells until next year. It doesn't seem like it's been a year since our last 2007 Rally in Colorado. Time has gone swiftly and next years 2009 Old Fella's Rally will come around just as quick.
Ted and I just want to say thank you for your help and support you gave us. We've enjoyed being your wagon master. The rally was fun and successful.
Looking forward to seeing you all next year. Drive home safe and God be with you all.
Special thanks to Don and Dusty for all your help and assistance.

It sure seemed that the days went by so fast. We are not leaving til tomorrow and are going to take our time going home. Other than a little hot the weather has been fabulous. The folks that we have met at this rally are new friends that I hope we will be able to see in the future. Thanks to Ted and Sue and Don and Dusty for making all the arrangementsso this Rally would be successful. As always, Mary was her loving self. Today she gave theh furkids new bandanas. We hope all have a very safe trip to your respective homes and have a great rest of the year until we meet again.
As always it was a great pleasure to get to see Richard and Sue again. If not for them (and of course Old Fella) this whole thing would never have been reality. God Bless all and have happy camping.
Thanks to Sue and Ted and everyone that helped in this rally. We enjoyed this rally very much! Nice meeting new people and seeing old friends.
Don't know if we will make Ohio next year. That is a year away. We have another rally around the last of June, and we will not do hot humid weather again for awhile. Don got sick from the heat and humidity. He is OK now and I am not letting him outside for long periods of time in this climate.
Our dogs don't do well around children either so we will probably pass on Ohio.

Masters and we all had a great time, and am already planning on next year in Ohio. I will be calling in my reservations tomorrow and am looking forward to next year.
Well the Rally is over and we will be leaving in the morning. Everything was excellent. Our last meal with the Daniels and Jim Mable and Karen consisted of Buffalo Steak, Ribs, shrimp cocktail, grilled shrimp, salad, pie, fresh fruit, and a numerous other things.
The time sure went fast. Thanks again to those who worked to make this Rally possible. I do hope that you all will consider coming to Ohio for the 2009 Rally June 10 thru 14.
Here are some pictures that we took at the Branson Old Fella and also of the group going to the Branson Belle for lunch and a show cruise. Sorry some of the shots are a little dark but I took them inside without a flash..........Old Fella Rally 2008
