"2nd Annual MOC Tampa RV Show Gathering"

Just thought it needed a name so I'm calling it "The 2nd Annual MOC Tampa RV Show Gathering" and it is now history.

I am going to attempt a listing of those in attendance but I want to apologize now if I leave anyone out.

Glenn and Lorraine, aka Glenn& Lorraine
lightningjack11 aka Tom & Betty,
Les and Julie aka Les & Julie,
sph77 aka Steve & Ellie,
Ohiocamper aka Roger & Connie,
Joyce H aka Joyce & Tom,
tapemeasure aka Tom and Faye,
Jimnmick aka Jimmy & Mickey,
Mr Zip aka Marvin,
Rick and Mary aka Rick & Mary,

And to everybody's surprise

sreigle aka "The MOC Legend"
vickir aka the one Living with the "MOC Legend"

Now did I miss anybody??????

We also passed out the montanaowners.com web address to quite a few prospective members.

As soon as Steve and Vicki get back to GA we should be seeing some pics.

Good job Glen. I recorded as many names as I could and you got all of mine and then some.

I have some pix's but I haven't scaled them down yet so maybe in a few days.

I didn't try the group pix since I knew Vicki was the expert.

It was a great get together even though it rained most of the day. Thanks Glen and lorraine for putting it together.

SO AFTER TWO YEARS WE FINALLY MET THE LEGEND AND MRS LEGEND.

Looking forward to the photos!

Wow, I thought the weather would play havoc with the meeting. Here in Kissimmee it rained all day long. I-4 leaving Kissimmee to Tampa is bad enough with all the construction normally and today in parts of Orlando traffic was stopped dead on I-4 because of the weather and accidents.

I would have loved to meet some of you and picked your brains, but it just wasn't in the cards this time and I'm a bit bummed about it.

Glad to hear all had a good time.

Carol, well he's not called the LEGEND for nothing?

I sure wish we could have been there. Alas we are stuck here in Michigan until only the Lord knows when? I know I sure am getting a huge case of Cabin Fever and want to get in my Mobile Cabin and go...and go NOW!

Glenn, thank you for the update and Steve and Vicki can't wait to see the pictures.

So everyone were all the new Montana Models there? Have you seen all or any of the new color choices?

Here you go, folks. I have to apologize ... I don't remember all of the names of the people in the picture. Steve got fancy and created the second picture with all the individuals numbered. I would appreciate it if you would PM me with any names you can and eventually we'll put a caption under the picture. As soon as Steve gets the other pictures ready, he'll put them on our PictureTrail site and post the url.

Enjoy!

Great pictures Vicki.

Vicki,

Great picture. You all look like you were having a great time, and Coleman Davis, well he's just too cute!

Thank you for taking the time to post the pictures for us.

Looking forward to seeing you in the future. Maybe in May?

Take care,
Patty

Here's a link to the rest of Vicki's pictures. I started to annotate them all but just have too much to get done today so quit after a couple.

click on this link, http://www.picturetrail.com/sereigle then click on 2005 Tampa RV Show

No, the truck's not yet fixed. I take it in tomorrow to the Ford dealer. Walmart says if it's under $250 they'll reimburse me right at the store. Otherwise it goes to their insurance company. The service manager told me he told them he agrees it's their fault but they still want pictures so he took pictures today. It's pretty obvious. The trip to Tampa (350 miles one way) was not a real pleasant one. We vibrated and droned all the way there and back. We also learned US 301 from Jacksonville to Ocala is not exactly the scenery capital of the world but it got us there. We enjoyed ourselves even though it rained almost the entire time we were in "sunny" Florida. On the return trip we went east through Orlando to the Canaveral National Seashore (saw alligators in the wild!) and the Manatee Observation Deck in the Merritt Island Wildlife Refuge. Wanted to do the Kennedy Space Center but couldn't do more than a couple of hours there and we were not willing to spend $60 to see just a small part of it. Next time.

Great photos, Vicki & Steve! Thanks for getting them posted so quickly. Glad you had a safe and adventuresome trip back to Tybee Island. Thanks so much for driving down. It was a great surprise to see you again. Sorry we didn't get more time to visit, but am sure our roads will cross again in the near future.

ummm, Patty, Coleman told us one thing he does when perusing the forum is search on his name to see what's being said about him! He's probably kidding but you know he's going to see your comment! (I'm gonna tell Dick!)

Great pictures Steve. Mine didn't come out too good. I guess it's because it is an automatic camera.

I am really bummed that I didn't make it Friday. I live in Kissimmee but couldn't have gotten away until 2-2:30, the weather was horrible and my wife couldn't go.

Being a new member I would have loved to meet all of you and now regreat not heading that way even if I didn't make it on time.

Hey Steve next time it would have probably been better to go on down I-95 to I-4 and come in that way.

Also, what is so interesting about seening alligators? We see them all the time.





I guess you can tell by the last image that we are Florida Gators.

Bill and Jeanne ... seeing alligators is a very big deal when you've spent the last 28 years in Topeka, Kansas (and there aren't a lot of alligators in San Diego, where I'm from.)!!!

Glad you all liked the pictures ... everyone was getting a bit annoyed with me for snapping them when they "weren't ready." But that's what makes it fun!

And hey, guess what ... this is my 100th post! Yipppeee!
