Representatives from all 50 states, all Canadian Provinces and Bermuda marched into the opening ceremonies carrying their state or provincial flags to kick off the 2014 Rally. It is an impressive way to start off the week.
Monday was reserved for golf and regional tours. We played golf and had a very fun time, met new people and John’s team tied for 5th place. Other people at the rally took buses to Pictured Rocks, Marquette and Iron Mountain. Some of the vendors were set up so we tried to get on their list to get work done or to visit with them about our concerns or to get the RV washed.
Tuesday (today) is the first full day of the Rally with all kinds of seminars and working on RVs. I walked for 30 minutes at 7:15 AM (that seems mighty early!) then we had a huge rally breakfast. We got some sensors replaced on our waste tanks, water tank and LP gas tank. John visited with people about our hitch, replacing floors, lights and shades while I shopped.
Some of the new 2015 Newmar Coaches were on display. I’m not sure that we could ever enjoy living in the luxuriousness of some of these homes. One had two TV’s in the living room, 1 in the bedroom and 1 outside, 1 1/2 bathrooms, washer and dryer and dishwasher along with an induction stove top. They had tile floors, granite countertops, tiled back splash, tiles showers with 1-2 shower heads, king beds, electric shades, mood lighting and mirrors everywhere. Leather seating was standard in all the units. Our little 30 foot Bay Star pales in comparison.
It sounds like we have done a lot of things but it feels like we haven’t done much. That’s life in the RV!

After reading some of your posts, sounds like you are enjoying your summer. The flys sound horrendous. I would be a red bump from all the bites.
