10% Discount...

When I was off doing laundry last night Greg had quite the encounter...The kids were finally asleep and he was reading in bed when he felt the entire truck shaking and shouts of, "Kevin, Kevin, are you in there?". Soon there was banging on the door and someone coming on into the camper... Well Greg flew out of the loft (probably bumping his head on the way down) and confronted the VERY drunk guy with, "HEY!! GET OUT OF HERE!! THERE IS NO KEVIN HERE!!!" But, the friend of Kevin was relentless and quite insistant says Greg. "He almost had Pampered Chef branded to the side of his head!" Of course Greg has had to relay this story to anyone who would lend him an ear ( I wish he would just write the blog...he is hysterical...David does the impression well too!) ANyway, the office gal took pity and gave him a discount for the trouble. I miss all the fun!! The whole event was over in the 1/2 hour I was folding. So, now you are "up 2 the minute".

Wow, such excitement, I will remember to always knock before entering your home! Oh, I will also use the right name, that might help. Did it wake the kids or did they sleep through all the excitement?
All that for what $2.00? Too funny, hope the guy found the right camper.

Drunks are so much fun - NOT! Too bad you missed all the drama, Tam. But I'm sure it mad the retelling more fun for Greg. Ha! Glad you are still doing great on the road. And glad I get to read about it. Love U all bunches, Jax

Hi Tammy, Greg, David and Kymi,
I hope you got to go to the Water Park and had lots of fun. Sounds like an exciting evening Greg. You didn't tell me about that episode. Ironic, that he was looking for someone named Kevin!
How's Lexi doing with all this traveling? Does she stay in the camper when you go on your excursions? She certainly is a good dog. There would be no way that I could travel with the wolves,Chloe and Riley. Jimmy says "Hi." Are you getting excited about Colorado? I know it must be bitter sweet leaving your great friends and life in Alaska and looking forward to your new home in Colorado.
Lots of love,
Snowwhite

Hey Greg:

I checked with Snowwhite and we have all our forrest friends on the lookout for 'drunks' around your truck; we're going to have the whole extended Sasquatch family available for clearing a quiet zone for you and you're family.

Sarah Palin approves of this message.

So, which pan was it? Of course, if they are the aluminum based, it would have left his head branded on the pan. Now if it had been the titanium ones. OUCH!! I could see Greg flying. He's got more energy than a jack rabbit. Sorry you missed the drama, Tam. I could give you some Palin drama going on here in Wasilla if you want it. Can I just say I AM SICK OF THE MEDIA SNOOPING AROUND HERE!! There are tourists buses, not just cars, buses!! stopping at the Mocha Moose just so they can buy coffee where she buys it. NUTS! Anyway, if you want me to send you a McCain/Palin hoodie, let me know. Silvertip in Palmer has them for $26 bucks. Anybody in Anchorage want one? I can send it in with Rick. Are you ever going to tell me who Snow White and Sasquatch are? The curiosity is killing me........

Hey Sasquatch,
Thanks for your help with the quiet zone! You and Snowwhite definatety have your connections as we have slept peacefully for days. By the way, as we were driving trough the Yukon we spotted your "larger than life" wanted poster...will send photo asap. News report just in from Alaska... "Our Mama's gonna beat YObama!"

Hey Tammyz:

Sasquatch folks were happy to help as we don't have much to do except avoid the paparazzi; but we are vegetarians and so there are the gardening chores...and we 'homeschool'.

You'll soon be out of the range of our general forrest control, so Snow White will have to pass the baton off to the forrest friends in the south who like the warmer weather but don't mind the toxic civilizational affects of the lower 48.

It was a pleasure to have been of service.

Y'all come back.

Sasquatch.

Trudy,
You're crackin' me up. I agree with the "sick of the media" comment. Russ was telling me someone was at his work looking for dirt. Just leave the woman alone, she's not running for Pres!!
Tammy, yes, tell us who the unknown bloggers are, I know neither one is G&M like Trudy thought.
Are you gonna get a sweatshirt Tam, I just emailed Russ to see if he would get me one. I'd like a few campaign signs also. Russ has a McCain sign in our front window, and yes, people comment on it.
XOXOXO
Barb
