Cock-a-doodle-doo!

Looks to be about 30 of us here as of last night. It is so great to see old friends and meet new ones.

We've got a Leisure Travel Free Flight Chevy and a Pleasure-Way Lexor RL-4 sitting up in the parking lot waiting for tomorrow's RV Show (can't wait to get inside). Finally got to see the inside of Ms"B"Haven's Forest River MB Cruiser, and was very impressed (that is one very nice Sprinter conversion).

Mo' coffee.

I agree with Lynne that the floor plan is very--very good. Bob

I'm curious to see what you guys think of the Leisure Travel Free-Flight. The 2 we've seen, that Van City have/had, were both very badly put together interior wise. Fit and finish. Seemed awful claustrophobic too after being in our Lexor.

Looks like a beautiful morning here, sun shining have a big breakfast to look forward to. We have met so many wonderful people, had just a fantastic time at the snatch bingo and auction last night. Boy I had some good prizes at snatch bingo, somehow I ended up with a mini potholder, at least it doesn't take up much room. Lots of great ideas here, everyone seems to like the swingaway diamond plate box I made for my sprinter. Barb Gizmo and I are having a great time I want to Thank the Sponsors and all those that put this together. Oh the parking lot has just about every class B made on display.

I bought a computer cable at Radio Shack and can now post photos again. I created a web gallery of B Van photos at...

http://gallery.mac.com/davydd#100080

I didn't title all of them. If you want, check the photos and let me know which van is yours and I will edit the titles. I think I got everyone. If I missed you it was because you ran off to Wal-Mart and I don't forgive people who shop at Wal-Mart being an ex-Target guy.

Here are pictures of Gary and Barb Obrokta's custom hitch box. Gary can explain in more detail. Several had asked and commented about it at the rally.

About that breaded pork tenderloin sandwich again. I sought out Bush's Restaurant in Logan, OH because I knew they had a breaded veal sandwich on the menu and a grilled pork tenderloin dinner entree as well. When we walked in Lee Howdyshell noticed our B Van and struck up a conversation. Lee is our caterer for the B5 Rally. I asked if he could marry the breaded sandwich on a bun with the pork tenderloin and he said he could. They use a broaster, a pressure fryer to make them.

Bush's Restaurant is your independent road food kind of place with breakfast, lunch and dinner with a wide variety of menu choices. If you get a chance before breaking camp and are looking for a restaurant meal, give this place a try. That's the least I can do after they went out of their way. Here is that sandwich. It is a double stack tenderloin by the way.
