Thats the great thing about the poker runs and networking. You tend to meet people with common interests and make connections that allow you to live the lifestyle. I'm looking forward to checking out your cat.

After talking with several folks at the run and a couple pro haulers I decided to take a chance and pull her home on Sunday. Never a second glance... I also know another couple did the same and nobody got hassled at all. I even got home about 9:30. I was told by almost every person as long as the truck, trailer, and boat were all in my name and not in a company then in their experience I would be just fine... Maybe I was lucky?!

We really enjoyed meeting you guys at the fun run Friday and I am glad you got home ok after your "power nap". Good luck with your water pump repair and we will see you at the next FPC run.
