Hello All,
Welcome to the second
edition of RoverPhiles, the sort of regular news letter for
Incurable Rover
Nuts like me. This issue we have some interesting short stories
for you to enjoy as well as a wonderful article from James Taylor’
Rover Enthusiast magazine.
Well we are just a few
weeks away from the RoveAmerica 09 gathering. I hope you are as excited as I am
but not as tired! I have been working hard to get ready for everyone
and using the event to set a deadline for myself to have my P3
ready. It’s going to be tight but I am going to do my best. BUT I
don’t want you to set an artificial deadline for yourself and not
make it to the event. If you love Rovers then we want you here with
or without a car. The event is really about a shared passion and a
way for us to feel OK about how we spend our spare time. So it is
you we want not necessarily your car.
Well good reading and
I hope to see you next month June 12th -14th
at RoveAmerica
09! Click here to
get all the details on this event.

This is the time of
year that I try to make a few upgrades to the RA site and Doreen has
outdone herself and created a nice slide show of some of the Rovers
I am in caretaker ship of. Make sure you have your speakers on.

write up.Click here to send in your

Rovering,
