The vans seem to be able to squeeze in pretty easily with the Expedite Group. GottaGo's truck is easily the most identifiable or Susie's truck with her flags. If you come in from in from I-65 and take exit 132 Crittenden Dr. and take a right on Central Ave then get in left lane to take a...

This year though I believe the Expediters are going to have to park a little tighter together and use that walkway for the BBQ and gatherings. It will all work out well I believe! Hopefully GottaGo will get there early and get that spot reserved.

Carol do you use the laundry detergent? How are you cleaning your cloths? The dust mitts work great on our wood floor and the dash of the truck. I bought the dish detergent as a spot spray for our clothes as I can not handle the idea of no suds when doing dishes.. Nicki told me about the...
