I thought I'd start a thread here so some of the updates don't lost in all those threads and PMs here. smile

As John mentioned, Tim is here. Lots of fun stories. He and John are already working on the list.

Tim brought some cool material to read about Australia.

Patchy drizzle before 11am, then a chance of showers after 2pm. Cloudy, with a high near 58. North wind around 10 mph. Chance of precipitation is 30%.

And the goslings have arrived! The ma and pa are marching them back and forth on the pond bridge.

Happy day!

Okay, they've been in here several times and wanted to be sure that I let everyone know that those coming the farther got here the firsest.

So, Tim is here from Australia. Followed by Leo. He was up the road so John and Tim went up in Charlie to great him and escort him property to Homecoming. (I know they have pictures of all this ... of course, which is great.)

While we were chowing down on bologna sammiches, Don King arrived from Missouri - good and stinky! grin Cheerful and happy, too.

Billy Marlow is here now, too. They are suppose to be doing some set up but I can hear motors running and I've heard the fire truck siren several times. I know they made a trash run. Check one thing off the list!

Already a good time. No rain. Cool and overcast but no rain.

Peg

Yes, everyone just finished super and now they are going for some adult refreshments. Leo and Don have gone to the motel to sleep. Mario and his family came in with loads of food.

We are a go!

About that Steve. Just run your daily driver down. Frank will already be there. Because of impending weather, Dempsey and the lifeboat are already at Homecoming.

Is your LDT motor running from last year yet? If not, get to work, I'll be there in a few.

Nine trucks heading out for a cruise before dinner. Three trucks left behind. Looks great from the house window! I think someone is getting some photos at the top of the road.

Some big doings here today but they'll have to give details. The rain kept pretty steady until about 4. We actually had some sunshine for a while. But me thinks rain is coming back in. Definitely cool temps.

Getting the cruise in before any rain does start up again.

Did someone get pictures or video of that fantastic 52 COE driving around the property after awakening from a long sleep? That truck and the activity to bring it to life were a highlight.

Found out I have two fundraisers to attend for local charities, so I won't be able to make the event. Have a great time brothers.

Gosh since the rain stopped, everyone went out to the garage and wrench more. I'm not sure about the whole gang, but John didn't get to bed until 2 or 2:30. Then he had to get up to put on John's beans.

Sunshine today!!! Hurray. Already a flurry of activity. We thought we'd get some pictures loaded ... but, you know how it goes. It's raining, you have plenty of time but nothing much to take pictures of. It stops raining, and everyone grabs a wrench - and camera - but no time to upload the pictures afterwards since they are all pooped out!

Sorry you'll miss it George. In our prep for Homecoming we found your notes on Flappy Fenders so I think we got Hambone in a corner now to do his Gallery story! grin

Me and Roache were following that COE in the Gator when Sweet decided to lock 'em up, see how well the brakes worked. There's 4 nice black strips of rubber on the road, brakes work!
