We had absolutely perfect weather all the way. 43 degrees when we left here and 45 when we returned...With lots of 75 and 80's during. Even had about 56 when going past your exit at about 1:30 this afternoon....... :woohoo:
You're right the Voyager took everything in stride while pulling the Aspen camper. Which by the way, did help in the wind today. :hmm:

Glad you folks made it home safely. Hope you'll had a great time. Was the literature we sent of any use to you or did you just wing it. By the way David and Lorraine send greetings and asked if you'll will be doing it again.

Yes Mike, the lit you sent was a big help. Was really looking forward to sharing a coffee and kicking tires with you, but time wise we couldn't take the trip that way. And yes, tell them we are planning a trip back to get in more of the festivities their way,,,,,maybe next year.

Neal I am glad you enjoyed the Mardi Gras in New Orleans. Maybe one day you can try to enjoy it in Lafayette. Gator Mike and I could get together with you and the Ms an treat you some Southwest Louisana Cajun food. I understand you couldn't make here. The weather was closing in and you were on a tight schedule. Glad you made it home Ok.

Yes, it was a fantastic ride. We do appreciate the way you and Mike helped us 'set-it-up'. :clap: And since you were able to partner with whoever was in charge of the weather,,That made it all even better. :woohoo: Maybe next time,,, after Susie's retirement,, we'll be able to add a couple of extra days,,,,then we'll have a chance to truly enjoy that offer. :Cball
