Time for our FMCA Rally to get underway. We are very lucky this year to be able to NOT have to caravan between our Monaco International Pre-rally and the FMCA Convention. To make it all that much sweeter, we have had full-hookups for the Monaco Rally and we get to sit in the same spot with full-hookups for the FMCA Convention. Maybe a once in a lifetime good thing!
After a few rain storms, this beautiful sunset is surely a promise of wonderful weather for the duration? Stay tuned....
The lot across the street from us is filling up! Also notice the storm clouds... Yes they never go away for long.
Oh oh - here comes the next storm. Notice the road in front of us is still just a road.
Our FMCA begins... When our club was started in 1963, this was likely the most popular motorcoach. This one is an early 1950's Flixable - the state of the art Motor Coach. It is likely the forerunner of all that we call "motorhomes" now days. It was very interesting to see how the first motorhomer's traveled.
Each morning we are welcomed to Coffee & Donuts. It is a way to get started and meet up with old friends and make some new ones. The Frustrated Maestro's provide music to get our day started. The last morning we had a pancake breakfast in place of the donuts - very nice!
This is our 50th Anniversary Celebration. Founded in 1963 with just a few motorhomes, this organization has grown to monumental size. I think I remember them saying there was close to 80,000 members now! We hope they keep going strong so we can continue to enjoy gatherings like this.
Our first nights entertainment is the Buckinghams! We are excited and the show did not disappoint. Brought back lots of memories for both of us - but mostly me.
This is what we look like on 6/20 at 6:15 pm. Just keep that in mind.
As you can see we are just a little ways back from the stage - but the sound was great and so the experience.
This was the best shot I could get. The guy on the right and the guy in the center are origional Buckingham's - that makes them old , like us!
