Atlanta

Yes, we made it back.  Down was fine.  Charlotte on Thursday night, (no earlcaine) and to Atlanta on Friday morning. 
Home....on Labor day Monday??   The best can be said, is we made it again.  It was totally due to my passenger side braking. 
butch, I'm seeing brake lights up there under that next bridge (1/2 mile away).  HON, they are stopped up there under that next bridge (1/4 mile away). 
BRAKE-BRAKE-BRAKE!!!!!!
(this is where the passenger side braking system works-feet braced up against the dashboard-one of these days, I'm going to end up busting the seat)
A 36' motor home does not stop on a dime.  Hell, it makes the white whale look like it does, and we all know that's a laugh.  There are now foot impressions on the front dashboard.  I finally went and took 1/2 a magic pill Kamie had given me, sat down at the table, ate a faceful of utz's and 1/2 a can of Pepsi, and after that, it wasn't quite so bad.  I think butch was MUCH happier after that too.
Doesn't it always seem like this...we went all the way to Atlanta, and in the coach next to us are 3 guys from Annapolis.  They were just too funny, and practically fed us the entire weekend.  wouldn't take no for an answer.  we brought most of what food we took back home with us.  so, many thanks to Henry, Mike, & Sam!
oh, yeah, there was a race there too!
we're off to Richmond tomorrow night and the Saturday night race there.  when we wake up on Sunday, we're heading to myrtle beach for a week.  i think we get home on like the 19th?  don't have a calender handy and I'm just too damn lazy right now to go look.
three nights is all we've had to unpack the motor home, re-organize everything, and re-pack it plus all the crap for the beach into the van. 
the end of august comes, and the next thing we know, it's October, cause September just blows away!
until we get back....
SEEYA

lol-just gotta love spellcheck-i just can't imagine why it dings on earlcaine and utz's!
