A busy day

Today was a busy day. I started out this morning at 8:00 and took pictures of the Chairman of this rally. I didn't get all of them so will try again tomorrow morning. Then I came back to the trailer and got Thelma and we ate breakfast at the Lions club food stand. It was good. They are having a lot of business. That is good as all profit goes to the things that they do. Then I got a shower and went and took pictures of some seminars and games Tonight we had some good entertainment. I didn't think it was as good as last night but that's just my opinion. Tomorrow morning we have our group pictures taken by a professional. Not sure what else is going on in the afternoon. We have a meal at 5:00 and the evening entertainment is a variety show by the members. Some are good and some ? That's about it for tonight The pictures of this probably won't be on till after the rally is over. I might download some here if the wifi is working. They will be on a different Picasa site as I started one to use just for FCRV. Later all Ron Thelma and Eli

Short one tonight.

This will be kinda short It is almost 11 and I just got the pictures loaded on the puter that I took tonight. I also did the comment on most of them. The pictures I am taking are for the international retiree rally not the Indiana one. That is Brown
county.No we did not get pulled out there. It was at Sadella Mo for the escapade that we went to. We had some good entertainment tonight. I need to get up early in the morning and go to a meeting and get pictures of all the chairman. That's about it tonight. We had a great day. Sunny a little windy but at least it was dry. Later Ron Thelma and Eli

Better Day

At least it didn't rain. It was cool and windy but at least we stayed dry. I think about all of the campers are in. We have about 253 rigs on the grounds. This is a fairground. I don't think it is set up the best for camping. They are supposed to have the campvention here in 2011. Not sure where they are going to put 400-500 units in here with electric. Maybe they will put up a lot of temporary hookups. We went into town tonight with a couple of friends and went to the slippery fingers. BBQ ribs, chicken, and pulled pork. This is what I ordered and brought home the chicken and pork. We have lunch for tomorrow. Thelma is already in bed and I am about ready also. After being out in the wind all day it really makes you sleepy. Tomorrow the rally starts officially. Now my job as photographer starts. I started with some today but now it is game on. Not much else new for now. So later all Ron Thelma and Eli

Wet and Rainy Ladson

We got here about 9:20 this morning. Got up at Six and on the road by 7. Stopped at Mickey D's for breakfast. We had a good trip Not much traffic. We got set up and then started helping with the parking. Then came the rain. I had on a rain coat but my pants got wet as did my shoes. Finally about 4:30 came in and changed into dry clothes. This evening the workers registered and we had a short church service. The chaplain is a retired Lutheran Minister. NotMS. He is really good. Tomorrow we start parking at 8:00. So have to get up early again. That is about it for tonight I want to take a shower and probably go to bed early. After being outside all afternoon I am tired. Later all Ron Thelma and Eli

Moving Tomorrow

In the morning we will be going to Ladson, SC for our retiree rally. We are helping with parking so will get an early start from here. Hopefully by 7:00. That should get us to Ladson around 9:30 or so. We will stop at a Mickey D's for breakfast. We checked the place today and there is a big parking lot next door that we can pull in and then get back on the road. Tonight we had our root beer floats and our meeting. We talked for a little while and then came back. We have pretty much every thing ready to go in the morning. I need to get the puter packed away after I get done here and then go to bed. Setting the alarm for 6. That is early for us.
We went to a
Texas roadhouse tonight for supper. It was really good. Good food and a good waiter who was originally from Mich. That's about it for tonight Later all Ron Thelma and Eli

Another day shot

Well another day has gone already. We only have one more full day here. We will do laundry in the morning. Then might go to the board meeting for FCRV. this morning Thelma and I went out for breakfast and then went to 2 flea markets. Didn't find one flea. I did buy a couple of mats one for in the camper and one outside the door that says welcome to our home away from home. They show a fifth wheel. One for seven or two for ten. So I got two. This evening we had a Lazania dinner. Everybody brought salads or desserts. Some of the people from the board meeting came and joined in. This was put on by the YARS group.
Then we had karaoke after that. It was pretty good.

We followed the house for about 20-30 min. It seemed like an hour. The Elvis was pretty good. He sounded a lot like Elvis. Tomorrow night we have our business meeting for Yars and then Sunday morning we go to Ladson for our Retiree rally. We will leave early as we need to get there to help with parking. That's about it for tonight Later all Ron Thelma and Eli

Here are two pictures. One is the house we were following on the way here. You can see how it took up both lanes. The other one is 3 dogs that were playing on the beach and water. Some lady that had two of the dogs threw a stick in the ocean and they went after it It was really cute to watch them Today was a bueatiful day. This evening we went with another couple to the Legends in Concert. They were impersonators. Elvis, Marylin Monroe, The Temptations George strait, and Rod Stewert. Didn't enjoy him that much as don't know his songs. They were all good. It lasted just a little over two hours. Got home about 10:30. Tomorrow I will try and put up the rest of the pictures I also did a small video of the ocean. Now I have them from Al, Fl and now SC Thats about it for tonight Later all Ron Thelma and Eli
