Awake 6:21 am Temp outside=52 Heavy rain during the night
Overnight Tucson, AZ
@ 8:00am we join the group @ the farewell coffee & donuts site but do not
partake in eating donuts. The more Newell rallies we attend, the more we
continue to enjoy couples we've met during past rallys & enjoy meeting new
couples. This was another good group & another good rally.
By 9:45am, only 5 of our Newell coaches remain in the campground. Kathy &
I eat breakfast @ the campground restaurant called: "Beer Bottoms Bistro."
A good breakfast for a fair price.
A few hrs later, we walk the campground & their 347 full hookup sites.
This takes 45 min. Starting today, Beaudry RV is having a 4 day Western
style BBQ with live entertainment & a bid & buy RV sale. The campground
sites are completely sold out. We were lucky we had planned ahead for a
few more days stay. After our walk, we tour the vendors tent looking at
their products & buying opportunities like a membership in Thousand
Trails, etc. From there, we visit Camping World & browse around there for
awhile. Back to our coach @ 1:30pm.
Call Gary @ the Newell factory parts desk. One of my matched pair belts
for the air conditioner compressor has started to show some cracks so I
ask Gary to FedEx a set to our Sun City hangout.
Mid afternoon, JD & his wife, Kelly, stop in for a visit. They are full
timers (5 yrs now) & love it. We have a lot to talk about & they are full
of tips for full timers.
Before dinner, we call my Sister Corinne @ the Lilly Pad in PA. Her
roommate Rosella gives us the phone # for Saint Catherine's in Pittsburgh
where she is spending the weekend. Corinne is enjoying her visit.
7:15 Dinner: Grilled pork chops with broccoli, fresh spinach salad & toast.
Mid evening: Kathy calls her ole friend Nanci, who moved to Tucson from
Anchorage 4.5 yrs ago. We are planning on seeing them tomorrow.
Late evening: Kathy watches TV in the bedroom while I input these humble
words to the on-line journal in the living room.
Today's high=77 Lights out: 12:15 am
