[RC] Thanks to the OD Crew - Jody Rogers-ButtramOne more thing, we never do say thank you enough to the poor ole pick crews. Well, we had the most hard working bunch of people helping us get thru this event. Tom Sites- Kept us going with Pizza, hamburgers, food prior to the ride, and met us at Edinburg with Gummy bears for Joni and a beer for Marie and Myself. Plus, endless stories, and valuable info. Dr. Tom- Who drove over 700 miles on a Harley to be the team vet. He was like a mule according to Laurie, and was a flurry of scrubbing at the VC on the horses legs to prevent scratches. Took pulses, listened to everything and kept a close eye on their well being. Laurie Underwood- Drove up 8 hours from Ga with her dad, busted her chops the whole time, crawled in/out and over the bed of that truck a million times. Plus, she kept me a bottle of "Alabama elytes" mixed the whole
ride. And never was anything but cheerful. Then, she called me on the way home, saying she wants to come back in Oct. to help again !!!!!!!!! Can't get enough punishment. Zoe- Marie's friend that had never been to an endurance ride, and worked like a well oiled machine. The woman was incredible. She did things before Marie could think of asking. Joel- Poor ole Pookie, the most overlooked crew daddy. As usual, was there to put up with me and Joni both bossing him around, and he didn't get crabby. There you have it, the dream team. __________________________________________________
