Can we have a Nashville Rally ROLLCALL?

[Del600]

Jennifer, Lauren and I will be arriving Thursday.... we are still in the workforce as well.
Jennifer and I have been married for 12 years (yesterday), and camping in tents until last year when we sold off the boat and bought our Sundance.
We attended the Illinois Rally last year, and then volunteered to be the Iowa Representative and have been having fun setting up our first Iowa Rally for 2010.
Lauren, our 20 month old daughter, will be in attendance as well, so be prepared for a tornado in Tennessee!!!!

Aw, don't worry about that. At my last count there are going to be 5 Cyclones in town so one more "little" storm shouldn't be to much to handle!

Hi all,
This will be our first HOC International Rally. The wife and I will be bringing our son Jerron (16 by then) and daughter Kaci (11). Thankfully our son still loves to go with us camping, lol. We are really looking forward to this trip. We have been to a couple in-state rally, campouts so this will be great as well. We probably will be doing a mini convoy from Arkansas with 2-3 other rigs. Really looking forward to meeting everyone.

As with a number of you, we will be attending our first HOC International Rally in Nashville. Deb & I have been married 13 years, have 5 kids and 4 grandkids between us, and are really looking forward to this trip. I can not caravan in with Gus & company from VA as we will be out of town at a family function before heading west but we will arrive on Wed also. Look forward to meeting everyone and getting to know you.

Sue And I will be arriving on July 14 as part of the Virginia Chapter Convoy Gus referred to. We will celebrate our 27Th wedding anniversary on this trip as we will depart Nashville for Glacier, Yellowstone and the Canyon lands. We love camping and our Sundance suits us perfectly. We will have two 12 yr old grandsons , Austin and Brooks ,with us for the first month of our trip and will put them on a plane home from Yellowstone in mid August.

Berry and Janet will be looking forward to meeting you and again seeing some of our good friends. This is our 2nd annual rally. We've attended 5 regional rally's (annual Spring and annual Fall) for South Texas. We have so enjoyed being a part of the Heartland family.

Jim Beletti does a terrific job for all of us. Jay Coffman is our wagonmaster and is a great person to know and also a great leader.

Ann & I have been using a RV for about 6 years prior to that we camped for many years in a canvass tent as Civil War Reenactors, I did Cavalry, Miss Ann did a civilian impression.
We have been married 23 years as of 7/4/2010, have a little camping friend Lula and are now full timers for almost 2 years. This will be our 3rd Rally starting with the one in Branson, we have been hooked ever since. We almost didn't make it into the Rally this year when the registration opened I thought as in past years "I have plenty of time to register" WRONG! All of a sudden I find out that all 100 spots were taken, luck was with us though and we got in on the additional 25 sites that were added. For all of you who have never been to the Int'l Rally you will have a ball, to all of you who have been we look forward to seeing you again.

See Ya,

Ron

Judy andI have been camping for more than 20 years. We started with a Coleman pop-up when our son was small. We owned a Sunnybrook prior to purchasing our Sundance 2 years ago. This is our first Heartland Rally and we are looking forward to meeting all and making new friends. By rally time we will have been married 36 years. We are both still working. Judy has a party shop and is most known for being Lulu the Gorilla in the Pink Tutu who does singing telegrams. I am the Facility Enginner for the Birmingham-Jefferson Convention Complex in Birmingham, AL, the best job I have every had, following 29 years in the manufacturing world of enginnering and maintenance. We now travel alone since both of our kids have outgrown us, son is 26 and married and daughter is 19. I am an Auburn University graduate as is my son. See everyone in July!

Hey there fellow Rally Attendees! Nona & I will be pulling in on the 12th after a short visit with the "Out-laws" at DeSoto State Park (Fort Payne, AL). This will be our 2nd consecutive National Rally & 3rd Heartland Rally (Yea, PA Chapter!) We have two four-legged kidz but plan to leave them with family as they get a little "intense" at times. We ride Harleys and 4 wheelers thus the draw of the toy hauler.

The Cyclone is only our 2nd RV but we have spent extensive time "camping"; in shelter halfs and GP mediums but mainly in GP smalls. The closest I came to RVing was sleeping in and under a Commo rig! As you may have figured out, we are both former Active Army NCOs; now both retired yet still serving as DoD & DA civilians in our "after life".

Only 115 days! We can't wait to see all the smiling faces once again and to meet the new ones.

Be safe in your travels,

Dave

My bride and I will celebrate our 43rd anniversay a couple of week before the rally. Although from Oregon, we will be arriving with the Virginia contingent as we will join up with their convoy in Baileyton Tenn., on the 13th and getting to Nashville on the 14th. We have been camping all our lives, starting with our parents in tents, then tents when we got married, eventually graduated to pop ups, then pull behinds, now the 5'ver. This rally is just one stop on a tour around the US, with another of the highlights being a visit to Camp Lejune, in North Carolina, where I am meeting an old Marine buddy of mine. We will be attending another rally, with a different RV group, up in Pennsylvania in June.

Amy and I will be celebrating our first wedding anniversary on Wednesday, April 21st. Days after we married last year we attended our first chapter rally in southern California. It was our maiden voyage in our new Cyclone 4012 and it is our first RV ever. We had a blast and enjoyed meeting other Heartland owners. Last September we embarked on a yearlong cross-country RV trip and we are still married and like each other most of the time. We are enjoying our travels so much that we may do it full time. We are currently in Madison, GA.

We will first arrive in Nashville and stay at Nashville Country RV Park from July 11 to the 15th. Then we will jump over to the rally on the 15th. We are excited about our first international rally and looking forward to meeting you all.
