Thank you Dean and Joanie, This was our first IRG and it was fabulous. Cant wait till 5.0 :)

I want to thank George Boyd for giving a Wheel Bearing demo to a few of the ladies. It was good to finally have a hands on example how to properly pack our wheel bearings. :worship:

Thank you to all of the wonderful folks that made our maiden trip in the "Bean" successful and fun. This is the best bunch of folks. ;)

Tyler sends his best too! :thumbsup:

Back on the grid after a two week hiatus at the homestead catching up on watering! Here for a dose of fog before I head back to the hills. Still unpacking and doing laundry from what was leftover from the IRG quick put away (due to helping deliver a baby right after we got back).

So, I see many of you thanked those individuals who made the event more special than ever. Besides the many people I thanked in the reg. packet letter, you can see that many folks found others who were helpful, kind, willing to share, feed you, etc. THANKS to ALL of you who paid it forward. This was one of the best IRG event yet, and so many of you made it happen.

Dean and I will have lots of share as we compare notes over the next few months of who we visited, caught up with, and sure appreciate the pictures that you share. Don''t forget to put some pics on the Pamplin Grove website as we have folks who visit there who are not tnttt or TJ members........yet!

Thank yous continue to go out to......

*George B. for his help with the Wheel demo on trailer......Nancy said I need to remember to give you tickets for that next time.

* Katie S. for her enthusiasm in meeting and greeting other campers. I nominate her to be official IRG Greeter next time.

*Donna M. for her diligence in keeping the vault toilets updated daily, and refilling/stocking the bathrooms regularly.

*Wes M. who brought his dutch oven up in the morning to the Coffee Klatch, filled with sticky goodness.

*Jim McM. who shared his yummy recipe with Betty M.

*Camp Host Don who pumped water not once, but twice daily for us

*To those of you who dropped off items to eat and gave us left-overs on your last day, thanks, WHERE DID ALL THIS FOOD COME FROM!? I was only gone for half an hour from the kitchen???!!!!

More to add later.......so many thank yous to give, but because so many of you PIF, I do not always know who to thank personally.

Just wanted to say thanks to you and Dean, I had a great time again. Sure wish I could spend a couple more days up in the area next time. FYI I just received a letter from Humboldt County that they approved my claim for the window in my Honda the Highway crew broke. :)
