If the start of this rally is any indication of how things are going to go than we are in for one heck of crazy fun time! The HillBilly Dinner was absoutely hilarious and food was great to boot.

But the best part was the HillyBilly Waltz.

Some of the "hilbillies" look like they are having way toooooooo much fun. Wonder if they will come home?

Ken

Yeah, I recognized one face but it would be nice to put names with the rest, good blackmail material! Looks like a good time, we should be there Ken.

Yep Tom, I could have worn my Okie Tuxedo and put then all to shame....

The tribe of 6 MH's from MA. made it in Sunday afternoon had a delay of couple hours with a broken fan belt on GMC all are safe and going to shows tonight.

I gotta tell y'all that with only one of the venues remaining to do, the Branson Belle dinner cruise, this has been one of the best rallies that iRV2 has put on. The ABC campground and their friendly, helpful staff has been terrific and our wagonmaster, "Rebelsbeach" has organized and put on a great rally.

Starting with the Hillbilly show and winding up tonight with the Branson Belle, all the events in between have been top notch. Last night we were entertained by the Warnock family while we stuffed ourselves senseless on the potluck dinner. The drawings for the door prize, raffles, and 50/50 was truly an exciting event with a 10 tire pressure monitor system as the grand prize.

We're all looking forward to next years rally for another great time.

Just returned from the evenings campfire chat. What a great way to wrap up the week of seeing old friends and making new ones.

From our family, a heartfelt thanks to everyone who participated in putting together the event. Special thanks to Bob and the campground hosts who made this rally one of the best ever.

We'll look forward to seeing everyone at future events. Safe travels to all on your trips home.

I want to thank everyone that worked so hard to put this rally together. This is going to be the "memorable" one. The camaraderie, food and entertainment were the best I have experienced.

A big way up for Bob for doing such an excellent job in executing the game plan. This rally went off very well and it's only going to get better as we build on the successes year over year.

We depart our favorite Branson campground for points East however we will be bringing a bit of the Ozarks back the the Grand Strand with us as well as all the fond memories and friendships that have been renewed here at ABC.

We depart we hope at OH dark thirty in the am on MO Rt 65 South!

Safe home to everyone.

The Rally has been fantastic. Great planning, great rally and campground staff, great food, and comraderie. It's ending on a somewhat down note, as I got word that my mother was hospitalized around noon Saturday with an apparent stroke. This evening I understand she was sitting up and smiling, but only able to say a couple words before speech fell off into babble. She seems unable to comprehend what people are saying to her, but they think that may be at least partly that the hospital took out her hearing aids (and lost one). Her medical staff is so far encouraged by her condition. Two of my brothers are there and will keep me posted as we move eastward starting tomorrow (Saturday).

The Creekmores are heading south this morning as soon as we can get hitched up!

ABC Campground - Wagonmaster Bob and all the staff....and iRV2 friends

for a job well done! We ride the tailgate of all the expressed sentiments above and add our appreciation for a week of memories!

Branson is awesome with too many things to do in just one short week. The park staff is topnotch and certainly will be the place to come another time down the road.

I know me....I'll be crying all the way out of here..not because I'm leaving the Ozarks, but because I'm leaving my friends.

Via Con Dios Mi Amigos...until our next time together!
