Got up early again this morning. I gave Bob his father's day card. He was surprised and pleased. Made me feel good. We found a good laundry in town and did our two loads of laundry. We didn't need it so much now, but I know that we will be busy later this week, so today was a good day to get it done. This was the cleanest laundry I had ever been to. There was an attendant who showed us which machines to use and helped in every way that she could. It took less than an hour to get two loads washed and dried. Then off to Walgreen's to get a refill on prescriptions. Again, I don't really need the refill now, but I don't know when we will be near a Walgreen's again soon. So this seemed like a good idea.
Then back to the rally site. We did a nice Skype with daughter. Grandson was bored once we stopped talking about him. Skype is a wonderful thing to help keep us in touch.
I took a long walk around so that I know where we have to be at 7 am tomorrow morning for security. Easy walk from here. And because we are doing it morning and evening, not in the heat of the day, it won't be too bad.
Then Bob and I put up our chairs next to Betsy and sat and watched the rvs come in. We probably saw 300 come in. It may have been more. (There will be thousands by the time the rally starts.) About 95% of them were the huge ones that were 40 or 45 feel long and must cost several hundreds of thousand of dollars. Bob thinks that there will be half a billion dollars worth of rvs here by the time that the rally starts. Betsy is so small compared to most of them. But I don't want anything bigger. It was great watching them come in and commenting on them. We felt like we had a ring side seat.
We went out to dinner at a BEEF place. This was a place that I found when we were parked at the Wal-Mart the other night. The owner had been so friendly to me when I peered in the windows that we decided to try it. The Bob had prime rib and I had lamb chops. It was expensive, but very very nice. We drove around town before we came back to the rv. There is not much to the town. One thing Bob noticed was the amount of places that have their own generators. The power must go out here a lot.
Now we are back in the rv, reading and resting and getting ready for a busy day tomorrow.
