Nice job, Mike & Brenda.

So, where is the destination for that maiden voyage? And your target date for the first camping trip?

Mike and I appreciate your kind words about the CASHCOW===yep that's her name.... might even get a license plate that says that.......... :D

Mike has worked so hard on her since August. It has been exciting to watch it all come together.

For those of you who have ask-- our maiden voyage is coming up December 22. We will leave on Saturday and head to Padre Island. (Just hope we leave the snow up here in Amarillo.) We plan on checking out some campgrounds between here and there on our way down and on our way home. Hopefully we will be drinking margarita's in Fredricksburg on Saturday night while eating some of their famous sausages. It will be fun.

Again, your support, ideas, comments and technical advice sure has come in handy.

Mike and Brenda
