Great long weekend


Hi all
It was wonderful to get together with friends from the past.
Ralph and Michel used to live in Moorhead when we became friends.
Kids about the same ages and other similar interests.
They moved to Wisconsin many years ago and we have just barely kept in touch.
You know how it is...... kids, family, life in general and miles apart.
They retired and went full time in their RV last October
and we have been looking forward to getting together.
Believe it or not we managed a long weekend as they are headed east and we are going west.
We met in the middle near Hattiesburg, MS
They are traveling with Michel's sister Terri and her husband George.
We met them for the first time and they sure added to the enjoyment and laughs
throughout the time we all spent together.
The six of us did almost everything together and I hope they all had as much fun as Millie and I.
Good food, good friends, and meeting new people, makes this RV life so enjoyable.

Went out for St Paddy's day to the Keg and Barrel for Guinness Stew, Corned Beef and Cabbage.
There were even a couple of green beers consumed.


Was a great day, the rest of the weekend was on and off rain until Monday when it cleared up.
We still had fun going to the Museum at Camp Shelby and
Staying in on Sunday.
Needed the time to catch up and get to know George and Terri.
The "guys" went out and picked up BBQ at a local spot and brought home.............
a couple of smoked chickens, potato salad and some of the best Brisket I've ever had.
Millie made a salad so we could get our "Rabbit food" and we all stuffed ourselves.
Michel painted us a keepsake rock to remember our time together.
Thanks Michel, it will travel with us where ever the RV goes.

Monday we packed up and went our separate ways, with plans to cross paths next year.

Today we are at Natchez Trace State Park near Natchez, MS.
Pulled in about sunset after wandering around the back roads of Mississippi.
Beautiful country and really small paved roads.

Gonna do stuff today and will let you know who, what, when and where tomorrow.
Make your day great
Tom and Millie
