Smile Poppa Movin to Florida

Hey Poppa Dan,.

Red and I are glad we got the chance to spend this weekend with you on the Berkshire Run. It was a perfect send off for a fellow Fanatic. Your move wont be reflected as a loss. It will instead add comfort in knowing theres a real good friend to visit the next time we travel to Florida.

There will always be a spot for your WACOOL camper here in Mass.

Someday we'll bring the down and you can introduce us to all your new Fanatic friends. Seems like theres plenty of events down there!!!! Just as we are putting our Rs up for the winter, youll be exploring the sunny roads of Florida..

We will ALL miss you from the Northeast
Our Fellow Florida Fanatics will soon find out why.

Take Care
Wild Bill & Red

Great to hear from the Florida welcome committee !!

Unhappy Dan will be missed

We sure are going to miss him.
Whenever there is an SSR event up here you can always count on Dan being there.

Good luck my friend,

Charlie

See you at Maggie Valley.

Met a bunch at the last Maggie Valley.
Watched first hand as Gina bagged Dick Bellville trying to steal her pickup in front of the convention center.

Ruth and I only just met Dan during an EXCELLENT Berkshire run, and immediately bonded. What a superb human being! Take care of that leg Dan and we hope to see you at the Daytona Cruise.

So poppa, what part of Florida are you moving to? Wherever it is, Florida has just become an even nicer place to live!

hog2030 I see you're in Pittsfield, my mother's family all fled New York many years ago and moved to Sheffield, MA. I was only there once, but what a beautiful area!

Thanks for the kind words and warm welcome I can't wait to leave here as this morning it is 32 degrees! I will be moving to Deltona Florida. I'm leaving on September 28th I can hardly wait. The best part is I can drive my SSR all year round.

Poppa!!

We,in the northeast, will miss Poppa alot, He's a good friend and is always
willing to help anyone who needs him,no matter what the task!!
I've tryed to talk him out of going but he thinks just because there's no snow
and its warm,its going to be better,but nothing can beat New England.

I wish Dan the very best and hope things go well.......................Carl

Welcome to Florida! It's a great place to winter! We will be there on Nov 1. I am sure we will meet. We're going to the Turkey Run car show in Daytona on Thanksgiving weekend. If you have not been you might want to put it on your list of things to do! We have a spot reserved in the car coral because they won't let us in the regular show!
Have a safe trip and no speeding tickets!

Meeting poppa for lunch

I am going to meet Dan for lunch today around 11:30 AM at the usual "Meet & Great" location (Piccadilly Pub in Northboro).
This was a last minute thing because of the expected rain starting tomorrow through Sunday.
Dan will be heading South on Monday morning.
I hope he will be able to get gas on his trip to Florida.
It seems there is a gas shortage in the Southeast.

Charlie
