What a Wonderful day!!!!!!!! Everyone was on time and so excited to go!!!
We did have one snafu, Poor Zachy was suppose to go with us, but had a horrible night with a head cold, and woke with a low grade fever! We got about 2 hours sleep the poor guy! So I made the call to run him home before we left. But I promised to get him another weekend ( hehe I know like that is so unusual LOL)
So We where on the road by 8:10 first stop about 10 blocks from home to meet another member, then we headed down the free way about 30 minutes picked up 3 more members. So the 5 of us hit the free way for another hour. We met up with 3 more trucks. The 8 trucks with 20 people Saddled up and headed out. We Made it to our destination with only 2 wrong turns! Hey I told everyone we get lost at Least once every trip LOL but they still felt safe to let us lead LOL
We got to our Destination and set up for lunch. We BBQ'ed and talked our heads off! We at good food!
Then everyone headed down to the beach to play for a while. I hung back because I could already feel my face was burnt! OY I hate burning easily! So I hung out in the tree's fending off the Crows that where trying to invade our space LOL They were Ruthless I tell yeah! hehehehehe
We all left at different times but the last of us left the park around 8 pm. We got home way late LOL
Good Thing we left late too! Jesse's best friend found a wallet in the Bathroom! So the boys went down to the beach to try and find the owner but no luck! They came back and where looking through the wallet to try and find a phone number or something to call. About that time a man pulled in and RAN to the bath room and came right out! Dave yelled the name on th wallet and the man turned and came over!
In the wallet was $40 and some credit cards. The man was so excited to have his life back in his hands he opened the wallet and handed the boys $20 saying " here I will split it with you!" we all said no no you don't have to do that, and says oh hell here you each can have half!!!!!!!!!! So the boys got a $20 reward for being good Samaritans! Now I really appricitate the mans kindness 0f the reward! But I really wish the act of returning it to the man would have been the reward! Self worth is worth so much more then $20. I am very proud of the boys though, and I guess they earned their money running up and down the beach

6 of the 8 trucks ( 2 left before we thought to get the group photo)

The Men being the boys that they are, they had to put one tire each on the crub for the photo LOL

This was our Meal time visitor! he worked his way up off the beach to us. ( i'm guessing he smelled the food cooking LOL) he was very polite!
