Tim, Tany, Jonathan, Dottee and Mollee left Anniston around 5 PM. Traffic was not bad. We picked up Allie and went to the RV lot. We began the set up process. Nicolette and Ivan met us there. We leveled the RV, began taking stuff out of the RV and unloading the car. We started the generator and it stopped. We started the generator and it stopped. We started the generator and it stopped. Uh O! Tim investigated and it seemed to be leaking oil. Uh O! Tim and Jay kept working with it. They added oil. It finally started. YEA! Then it was off for our first trip of the year to Mugshots. Jeff Hogg met us there. We saw Breeze Wilson and family. Mugshots was great. Then to Publix's for our weekly trip. I'm still disappointed that we have not been named Publix's tailgater of the week. Back to the RV to complete the unpacking and set up. Ivan took his car to Mary Catherines for the evening since his parking lot doesn't open until 7 AM on Saturday. 
Saturday morning we slept to 8 AM. Yea! Only 12 hrs until kickoff. Ivan and Tim went to pick up Ivan's truck, to get breakfast, medicine for Tim and coffee for tonight. Tanya took the girls for a long walk to the Quad. Nephie pick up Nicolette. She is leaving her car at Catherine and Alex's apartment. Janis and Randy dropped on their stuff and went walking with Brianna and Hunter. James and Leah were able to drive in the lot and drop of their stuff. Tanya took a bike ride to Rite Aid for some Advil and Propane. It's a long time to kick off. Mollee it bored!
Nan and Ellen arrived. Anne Peavey's mother, dad, sister and Taylor arrived. Anne dropped them and the stuff off and then went to park. Amy Steve, Isabele and friends are parking at the mall and will need to be picked up. Unc is in charge. It is hot dog making time. Tanya was in charge of hot dogz since Unc has to leave to go get the Duncans.
Mary Catherine and Clay arrived. Catherine arrived. We watched ball games all day while we were waiting for the 8:15 kickoff. 
Everyone took a turn on the grill because hamburgers were the dinner menu. Anne Peavey's dad made Belgium Waffles. The Waffles were a HIT! 27 people at the tailgate!
The weather was beautiful. It was a terrific day. It was a terrific day. Finally it was game time. Randy stayed at the RV and watched the game. Janis, Brianna and Hunter had tickets. Bama won 23- 10. It was UGLY by but a win is a win. Allis is 46-8. The game was over at midnight. Everyone returned to the RV to collect all their stuff and to help clean up. We collapsed into bed at 2 am and Ivan had to leave at 5 AM in order to get back to church in Cedartown.
We slept until 10 AM on Sunday morning. The pack up and clean up went well. We only used 1/8 tank of gas so we only had to dump and fill with water. The only hiccup was that that the bike cover almost flew off the bikes (the bike rack is on the rv). The cover flew all the way from the RV lot to the RV storage lot. It was almost a disaster.
This is actually the first week we had ice left on Sunday morning. We actually poured ice out. YEA! Fall is here. The trip home required at stop at Golden Rule in Pell City since we skipped, aka, slept through, breakfast.
It was a GREAT weekend. We will return to T-Town for the Mississippi State game.
Thank you Auntie and Unc for bringing new friends together every game!!
