Stu: More Escapade and a Dinner date

More Escapade and a Dinner date
Jul 2, 2008

Part of the Escapade is an area they call "the Row". It has some of the expected RV vendors as well as Escapees booths. Many of the Birds of a Feather (BOF) groups have a booth and inform folks of their activities, meetings, rallies etc. These are groups with like interests, hobbies or backgrounds. One that I was interested in was a group called the SOLOs. All RV'rs that travel alone. Either by choice or destiny.

In the booth that day was a lady everyone called "Froggy". Her real name is Donna. I filled out an application and left one of my cards. On the card was the URL for my travel journal. Later that night Donna read the entries about Lin and emailed me to express her shock over the last few months. Many emails back and forth ended with me asking Donna out to dinner. Our first official date.

We went to dinner at around 6 the next day and damn near closed the place. We had so much in common, Donna had lost her husband to cancer in 2004. She rides motorcycles and full-time RVs. Seemed like a good fit to me. We later spent most of the remaining Escapade together including the 4th of July and Motorcycle rides.
