Niagara Rally - Day 2

Saturday is the main day of the rally. In the morning, we put out one of those blue plastic tarps, & folks put out any camping related items that they aren't using, & anyone who wants those items can take them. Then it's open trailer time for several hours, where folks wander around & look through each others trailers; it's a chance to see how folks use their space & exchange ideas on modifications & upgrades. Often, folks who are wanting to buy a trailer come to look ate different trailers.

The day is capped off with a potluck dinner.  


Blanche left after dinner. 😞 

Though this evening's campfire was spiced up with some bourbon tasing, at least one attendee wasn't excited by the proceedings.

This guy has been on the road for 15 years & been to all of the places on this map - amazing! I got so distracted by the map that I forgot to take a pic of the rig. He bought the truck in Australia with another camper on it. That camper fell apart in South America, so he took the truck to the Netherlands where they built him a custom expedition-style rig. He's now back "home" in northwestern Canada for a while. A short distan...

family & a fountain show

After a lovely visit with my sister-in-law early in the day, my brother-in-law, a niece & her husband arrived from Texas in time for dinner. Then we went to Longwood Gardens (outside Phila) to take in the gardens & then a fountain/lights/music show. A grand day.
