[Rhodes22-list] The Great Road Trip

[Rik Sandberg]

Julie and Dan,

Hey, good for you!!! I hope your trip goes well and your boat is all you 
hope for. I don't doubt that it will be, as we have been very pleased with 
ours!!

I will look forward to hearing how the new secret weapon (sail) works. :-) 
Sounds like you guys have a busy summer ahead of you.....enjoy!!

Rik
