Hi Everyone!!! Just got in last night from "Tom and Cathy's Epic Road Trip!!!" We had a wonderful time meeting all of you out there and are still in awe of all that we saw while doing this. Of the 1522 photos we took along the way, I was able to filter out 77 People pictures and get them to upload to PB. Here is the link to the album. I'm going to be adding more as I am able to sort through, but this is a good start... Thank all of you so much for the wonderful time we had there but especially GR and Sandie, Ed...mostly, Tony and Diane!!! It really was incredible!!!!!! Ok.. so the link!!! (I hope this works!) s870.photobucket.com/user/cath123us/slideshow/Quartzsite%20Trip%202014?sort=3Much love to all of you from back in the Catskill mountains of NY!!! Cathy

I have never made it to Quartzite but If I don't do it within the next few years I'll most likely won't get another chance.
I know a lot of the crowd at the BBQ it would be awesome to meet them in person.
Those first few photo's of the big white dog, the Great Pyrenees, remind me of my daughters and the grandkids GP named Fred. He's the most loving gentle giant around but real aggressive when the need arises.
Thanks for sharing.............

Awesome slideshow!! Anyone know what was in Jay Leno's @shotgunner 's hand?? Looks more like a demand than showing something off...... It looks to me like "I endured that danged soda,.... So where is my beer? " Thanks for the show Cathy, you and a few others brought us much closer to the fun you guys had. All those pictures and running cometary over the past few weeks, will ensue that more people make the extra effort to attend in the coming years. Its a long way, but I will be there one day too! (gotta get started on daily affirmations )

Anyone know what was in Jay Leno's @shotgunner 's hand?? Brian, if I recall, he was showing around a cab that looks like a lizard or snake head. It was one that Tommy did, and then Scott named the snake/lizard. There's a thread on here somewhere. That's the only thing I remember him holding in his hand, other than beer, lol!
Cathy, what a batch of nice pics, thanks for sharing. It was great to meet both you and your husband, so glad you were able to make it!

Yeah, Tommy, that's the one - " A lizard. A legless lizard indeed. The Sheltopusik (Ophisaurus apodus)."
Great minds, do indeed, think alike!
