I too had the pleasure of meeting Ray and Marcia. They are some of the finest folks you'll ever meet. Hard to believe he's leaving that piece of heaven where has was in TN.

Ray is what I consider to be typical of the FTE gang. He goes out of his way to be helpful and shares his experience freely.

Yes, he's one of the good guys, and I wish he was going to Truckstock so I we could meet him and Marcia.

I did enjoy meeting you, Bob. Yep, we'll do it again when things settle down on my end. I am planning on being at TS 15 one way or another, from one direction or the other. I am safely back in TN for a while.
Thanks for the nice comments, guys.
