Visitors From Afar

After we finished the kitchen training, Patty and I returned the short distance to the AgriRama so that we could meetup with Aunt Jean, Julianna, Steve and Carla who were on their way to Florida for Spring break. They go somewhere every year and this year it was Disney World and Daytona Beach. Steve is Patty's cousin and all around good guy. Carla is his wife and Julianna is their granddaughter. When they got to Tifton we all went out to eat at Sonny's Bar B Q where Patty and I were becoming regular customers since we had eaten there with Terry and Dale. After eating, the Indiana bunch went to check in at the motel and Ward went to take a short three hour nap, so we didn't meet up again until the next day.
Thursday morning Carla, Steve, Aunt Jean and Juliana came back to AgriRama and we all went on a history tour. Tony (Carla's sister and all around great gal), Scott (Tony's husband and good guy), Cody (Tony and Scott's son) and Wanda (Tony's super mom) had arrived that morning and had taken over the motel rooms for awhile. Around noon Scott called and said he was near our motorhome and wanted me to come out and meet him. Scott is a Fleetwood tech and I had called him and asked if he would stop by on their way to Florida to help me with a slide problem. Scott being the kind of guy that he is agreed to stop and here he was. It was a bonus to see Tony, Wanda and one of my all time favorite kids, Cody.
We talked about places to eat and they wanted Sonny's so away we went and once again I had the "all you can eat ribs." After eating, we were sad to see family and friends go down the road and leave us behind. We really do love that bunch of fun loving folks and missed seeing Cheryl, Theresa, John and Michael the rest of the "Chatt" family since they didn't make the trip this year. I know we all missed the smiling patriarch and Wanda's husband, Doyle, who passed away last year. Abetter group of folks you'll never meet.
