It was a great trip. I flew in to Indy and Billbob picked me up. We headed to Enid. Billbob drove 90% of the way too. He was full of energy. Usually he turns over the RV to me and naps! lol
Mitch's wife could not make it but she was there in spirit.
Camp Gewbers! lol Was great to see them. A couple of the best crappie.com members for sure. Crappie.com would not be the same without them. Heck,
