PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

We are so very sad to have to say Good-bye to our Dear Connie Butaud. I feel so fortunate to have know her....

I remember the fun times in Pagosa, Rayne, and at so many other rallies where Connie was always the life of the party. Such a delightful lady, she was. Girl, we will all miss you......

Lou, please accept our deepest sympathy for your loss. We pray for strength for you and your family. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

God Bless
Ida Cook, President

Linda & I really enjoyed the rally at Rayne. We are so pleased that the Gauthiers have decided to sponsor our club and we hope their partnership with us will continue.

I am pleased to serve as 2nd VP of the club. We are looking forward to a great year with big expectations of travel and friendship. Our club is on a new path and we expect to continue with old friends and and make many new ones.

Travel safely and supremely, Jack

Hi everyone! It only took us 12 hours to get home from the New Years rally. We stopped about 50 miles from the house to let the dogs have a potty break and our truck died and wouldn't start again. We had to call a wrecker to tow us in to Corsicana to the Ford place. Our RV had to be towed too. It turned out to be a bigger deal than the driver thought and he had to call another unit out. About 6 hours after all this started we got home. Boy, are we tired. Standing around is hard work!!

We all had a good time at the New Years rally. We all ate too much as usual but the food was so good that we couldn't help ourselves. I've always said that our club should write a cook book.

The sad part of the week was hearing of Connie's passing. We will all miss her. She was always smiling and never, never met a stranger. She loved her family with all her heart. She loved Jesus with all her heart, too and I know that I will see her in heaven when I get there. We will keep her family and Lou in our prayers.

It's good to be home but we are looking forward to seeing you next month at "It's all about the beads".

Travel safely,

Nancy Skinner

Wagonmaster News

Our New Year's Rally was again a great success, THANKS TO ALL OUR MEMBERS & GUESTS who were able to be present. We had some good laughs and traded gifts over and over. Even if gifts are not opened certain packages seem to grab everyone's eye.

We offered prayers and special memorable moments of Connie Butaud upon learning of her passing away on Dec 30, 2008. She will live on in our hearts. We also lift our prayers to Heaven for Lou and Family, may they find strength and courage to go on as we offer our condolences.

Please be thinking about future rallies and where you would like to host one. It would be good to have more on our calendar for 2009 and also to start booking for 2010. When checking the website and find that the deadline date has passed for a certain rally and you find that you would be able to make this rally, please contact me and I will be able to let you know if we can take on another unit. Again Happy Trails to everyone in 2009!

Buddy and I spent the summer at the West Des Moines KOA. It’s 25 miles west of Des Moines,Iowa. We arrived shortly before the flooding in Iowa. Thank God we were on high ground and very safe. The only thing we didn't like were the tornados, heavy rains and very strong winds. We really enjoyed the people here and the area has a lot to do and see. We visited John Wayne's birthplace, the Madison County Covered Bridges, and went to the Iowa State Fair.

We are leaving on September 14th and headed for Deadwood, S.D. to meet Michele, Buddy's daughter, to spend a few days visiting and sightseeing. After that we will gradually work our way down South.

Looking forward to seeing everyone at the Sponsor's Rally.

TRAVEL SAFELY,
Buddy and Maria
