Thursday, September 28th - to the Rally!

This morning MA cooked Belgian Waffles for Sylvia and Terry Hix and I cooked bacon. I did my bacon cooking outside using a griddle and the outside electrical hook-up. Bacon is such a strong smell that the coach would smell like bacon for days if we cooked it inside.

I conducted a "drivers' meeting" last evening and gave everybody directions and departure sequence to every coach. This morning I started off at 11:45 and ten coaches followed in behind. We had to arrive in a prescribed sequence, according to Newmar guidelines. It was a little like herding cats but we traveled the 12 miles and kept our sequence and arrived as directed.

We got set-up and are here for the next nine days. We are parked on grass and have 30-amp electrical hook-up and some water available. We have no sewer hook-up so the "honey wagon" will be here Sunday to dump our tanks.

There are approximately 900 RV's here, mostly motorhomes. There are crafts and instructional seminars, a golf tournament, dinner cruises on Lake Champlain and many other interesting events.
