We arrived at the Rally yesterday, Saturday, 1 day before the Rally officially began. Up until 3 days ago, Howard and Linda (the coordinators) were not sure the rally would be possible because of all the rain and flooding in the area. The CG did not have electric, water or sewer for 2 days, but all was up and running by Friday night. So, Ken and I decided to head to the Rally early to see if we could be of assistance and let's be honest, to get a good camping site. We had to come by way of the turnpike, since Route 322 was closed at Pumping Station Road. We arrived around 12:30 and met Howard and Linda as soon as we got here. What a great couple. She is such a bubbly person with a contagious smile. Howard is abit more reserved, but the perfect compliment to Linda. Ken has been following their blog, http://www.rv-dreams.com/ for the last 6 years ever since they started full-timing. They have an extremely friendly blog where you can follow their adventures and then go into their forum and ask questions. Their followers are happy to reply and help you with any concerns you may have. So, we were so excited to actually meet them, since we felt like we already knew them.
After we ate our dinner outside of Willie, the folks that had already arrived for the Rally met at Howard and Linda's site around a campfire to introduce ourselves, chat, ask questions, and then volunteer to help with tomorrow's registration. We met many great people and had a fun evening with like minded folks.
This Rally is geared for folks who do alot of traveling and are considering going full-time. There are about 6 couples here that are already full-timing, as their RV serves as their home. They have all sold or are renting out their stick and brick homes. Interesting!!!!!!
Tomorrow, Sunday, begins the actual Rally. We can hardly wait.
