Rumba Rue Posted April 11, 2008 Posted April 11, 2008 I'm leaving early Sunday morning, April 13, and heading east, by car. We are going first to Tombstone, Arizona, then onto Carlsbad Caverns in New Mexico, see sights along the way through Texas and into Louisiana for the Con. Afterwards we're heading for Amarillo, Texas where Boat's son lives, then through New Mexico, Santa Fe, Taos, up into Colorado, over to 4 Points, down through Arizona again, then up to Las Vegas and the Luxor (they made us a deal on a spa suite we couldn't pass up), then home on May 3. We have reservations at a dozen or so state campgrounds along the way; we sleep in the van. Though a couple of places we are hotel/motel-ing it due to no campgrounds around. As some of you may have already noticed, I asked the Admins. to put Blackhearted Pearl on as my substitute while gone. I will not have access to a computer, so no checking in while on the road. Everybody be nice to Blackhearted Pearl, otherwise she may hang you up by your toes! Adios All! Rumba Rue Pyrate Con, here I come!
Ransom Posted April 11, 2008 Posted April 11, 2008 Enjoy your grand adventure, but come home to the Pub safe & sound! We'll miss you. ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold... You can do everything right, strictly according to procedure, on the ocean, and it'll still kill you.

Capt. Bo of the WTF co. Posted April 12, 2008 Posted April 12, 2008 Wave when you go through Arkansas! I hope you have better weather than has been going on! Be careful and come back safeley to us! Bo
Rumba Rue Posted April 12, 2008 Author Posted April 12, 2008 Uh, not going through Arkansas..... Black Syren, we did look on our map and trip route and truly considered it and though we will sort of be near Austin, we are not going that way and it will take us more time to travel to you and back to our route. Sorry, I do wish we could come and see you. But I'll give you a big toast at the con! Lots of hugs to you girlfriend!
