Howdy all. First, before the last two years I literally lived for the Carlisle trip. My goal, which was accomplished was to have a Speedster made for the annual 2,500 mile round trip to Carlisle from Hot Springs, AR. WE drove to Knoxville, met up with 4-6 Southern Caravan folks then up 81 to Carlisle with one group lunch on the way picking up an additional 4-6 cars there. The caravan from home to Carlisle was an event in itself. The last 2 1/2 years took us temporarily out of commission with the Covid hoax then Breast cancer for Alice and prostate cancer for me. I am happy to report that as of last December both Alice and I are cured completely and PET scans last December reveal zero cancer anywhere in either of our bodies. We daily praise God for His provision! We are both planning to attend Carlisle this spring in whatever way the event gets held. I have made life long friends from previous Carlyle events so stopping my attendance won't happen until me or my Speedster becomes unable. My Son, Russ and Grandson, Sean will join me there this year too so Carlile gives me one more opportunity to be with my son and grandson. Plus on the way home we go through Arlington VA to see my daughter and her family including two granddaughters. This is what makes this a 2,500 mile round trip.
My VS Speedster's Raby Type 4 takes care of the reliability part, 4 wheel disc brakes help with the safety part and the Espar heater warms us in the Smokies. This will be our 14th event and we can't wait. Hanging out on the showfield and the group dinners are highlights.
Plus we are planning to enjoy the Smokies event again this year. Hope to see new and old friends at Carlisle!
