Putting the pop-up and the chairs in the truck now. Looks like the weather forecast is good, but that can always change. Driving over to Benton on Wednesday afternoon to help Brien (Bluebolt) load up his trailer so we can get an early start on Thursday. Plan is to be there by noon. Now if I only had some money to spend :-)

Oh you just made my day with that different route! So sick of the I-45 way. Weather looking great for the entire weekend (ie. only Funnel Cakes, no Funnel Clouds!!)

]Connie noted my list and the "support items" being loaded in the truck and decided I couldn't overspend, since I have no room left for any large purchases! I didn't bother to explain that it's the little items that tend to drive up costs, or that there is definite advantages to having "friends with trucks".
