Hello everybody,

My wife and I would like to thank everyone for being so nice and making us feel welcome at the Pisgah meet today. The food,company and music was great, thanks for sharing it with us. We wish we would have been able to stay longer to get to know everybody better and to study the very beautiful teardrops that were there more.

We look forward to meeting everybody again at future get togethers.

Best wishes

Jake and I arrived home safe. We had a wonderful weekend and really enjoyed meeting everyone. Of course we can't wait until the next get-together when we have our own Teardrop and can consider ourselves official Teardroppers. Dani and Jake

We tried calling Frank and Linda's cell phones last night while you guys were all at the campground... but alas, no answer.

Hope you guys all had a great time. I am looking forward to seeing your photos. I know Linda has a great digital camera. I hope she remembered to bring it!!! :wink:

Mike...
The quality is remembered long after the price is forgotten, so build your teardrop with the best materials...

A great time was had by all. Great food, great people and great music........what else could you ask for. Again, thanks goes out to Clancy for hosting this event.

The plans are already in motion for next years Annual Pisgha Fall Gathering in October 2005, as well as, the Southern Appalachian TearJerkers' Spring Gathering in May 2005. So be looking for the announcments shortly.

It was also wonderful meeting all of the future teardroppers that dropped by.

:D It is Monday evening and we just got home and unloaded. Haven't had so much fun in a long time. Never before have we met so many people at one time that we would like to call friends. This gathering was the beginning of something great for all of us. A few are planning a little something at the beach the first week of Dec. If interested speak up. On behalf of myself my wife and her sister a big Thumbs Up and Thank You. And I only got one little bowl of my own darn chili. Alan, Wanda and sister Bonnie
