Ok , Bri, you asked for it!!
When I came down to Alabama as a volunteer after the tornados, I went to visit David on a rain day. He was very warm and welcoming, and invited my stepson and I to stay for Dinner. It was there that I met both Cuzzin Dick, and Charlene "Swankie wheels". We stayed the night in his back yard in the bus, and left again in the morning. Since then, I have become a GSR, and our district meets in the same small city that he lives in, so I make it a point to stop bye when I'm in town. His son, David jr. is a jack of all trades who is about my age, and gave me a hand changing the oil pan on the bus which had leaked since I had bought it a year and a half ago. I know for a fact that David has helped build vans for Brenda, Cuzzin Dick, Katie TK , and countless others, and is the owner of the vandwellers construction site on yahoo.

Hey Bri, if stoop bye here, you can tic off 3 states at once. I'm in Alabama, 4 miles from the Ga line, and I can be in Tn in 20 min. Might put you up in the Shasta guest house, and H2O and 110 are included!<img src="/images/boards/smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0" align="absmiddle">
