postheadericon Gay Jan-22-11

It was a very cool day with a lot of wind. So all our outside activities at the Alaskan Rally were cancelled and we had to be inside again today. 16 of us from our Alaskan tour got to gather and went to Parksdale’s Farms for their famous strawberry shortcake. We had a great time seeing all the folks from our tour, a lot of laughing and storytelling. When we got back to Lazy Days Charlie Wiley couldn’t find the keys to his car. They had ridden with us so we went through the van looking for them but no luck. Charlie checked with the office and no luck with someone turning them in. He also called the Parksdale’s Farms and no luck there either. So we got in the van and drove back to Parksdale’s Farms to look for ourselves, no luck. Charlie called AAA and had them come to unlock the car and a lock smith was taking the steering Colum apart to get to the lock when Charlie came out of the motor home with the keys. They had fallen out of his coat pocket down in the back of the chair. So everything turned out on a good note. Cheri took all of her quilts with us today to show them at the rally. As it was two of our group that got Cheri started making quilts while on our trip to Alaska. It has been a yearly thing showing each other their quilts and also hang them up at the rally so everyone can see them. Spike (the caravan owner) had a wonderful meal of barbeque chicken and ribs catered in for us. There were over 150 people at the rally. After supper there were a lot of storytelling and door prizes handed out. Finally it was time to say our goodbyes as some of our group weren’t going to be there tomorrow. It was a great day and evening with close friends from our Alaskan trip, they are like an extended family.
