I'm Leaving home now. Long story.
There are no tee-shirts. Another long story.

I should be there in about 5 hours, but with the time change it will only feel like...5 hours.

See you when I see you. And not before.

So far, so good. Nobody has wifi here unless they're in the lodge. As time goes by, it develops even more of a feel of a family and friends reunion. Good food, laughs, and conversations. No problems today. No drama as usual. The biggest mechanical mystery of the trucks was a slow air leak with Eric's right rear tire. Other than that, the attendees helped me keep my family's three cheap Walmart bicycles on the road.


Will probably do some brief cruising tomorrow, visit the falls, and just hang out some more. I'm enjoying being around my old and new friends again. Plenty of shade trees and lawn chairs. Dave and Cindy have done an excellent job with hosting so far. Thanks so much. Cruisetopdown arrived late today. Expect the pictures to start flowing.

Just wanted to let everyone know that even if you're not able to make you're still park of the event. Yesterday while at work (ugh!), talking to my doofus boss I got a phone call. I glanced at the screen and it was Doc. I had to swipe it to ignor but as soon as I could I called him back. It was the whole TS 16 gang checking in with me to see how I was doing. I miss not being able to make it this year, next week is my oldest son's wedding and that's taking up up our time and $$ this year. Hope to see you all next time and have a great time!

I hope you all have a great time at truckstock 2016. Post a bunch of pics so we can all kick ourselves for not making it down there. Sharon and I really miss all you folks.

Now that's what I'm talk in' 'bout!

Although I found this a little unnerving:



Glad to see SpongeBob made an appearance



Looks like the typical TS good time Wish we were there.

Great pictures. A great looking bunch. Now can we get some captions? I wanted to go this year just so I could put faces with the names.

I plan on being at the next one.

A great big thank you to Dave and his better half (who we all know really deserves the credit). It was a great time and a lot of fun.
Just pulled in drive when right rear went down otherwise a none eventful trip home.

Just got home at 5:00 eastern (left about 10 eastern with a long sit down lunch in London). We drove through a 50 mile wall of rain and water around Cookeville. Gotta love that leaky cowl vent and a leaky spot in my new windshield. The vacuum wiper entered the hall of fame today. It worked wonderfully. It rained almost the entire drive home. My girls and I had an excellent time!! My truck ran flawlessly. Had plenty of power, and and it got us home safely. Now I must stand up and stretch and then take a nap. My left butt cheek will never be the same.
