Wed. and Thur. Feb. 4 & 5, 2009


WE are now at Brooksville Muncipal Airport. It was a W.W. 2 facility and now Brooksville uses parts of it. The South East Area of F.M.C.A uses two old long runways as a way to park about 1200 motor homes during this rally. The airport facility does use these part time and will be in use again after we all leave on Sunday.


WE are parked on the West runway about 3/4 of a mile from the entertainment tent and another 1/4 mile to the rest of the supporting area. We have coffee and donuts each morning with the


Frustrated Maestros playing until 9 am. Except today they did not play as the temp. was 27


degrees. WE did not want any lips frozen to mouth pieces!!!! There was about a 1/2 inch of ice on the buckets of water that were used as weights. I bought some foot warmers for my toes that had turned to almost ice.


We have been seeing friends that we see usually just at rallys. Checking out the venders and going to seminars. Ernie went to one on insurance on Wed. and I went to one on Introduction to gem stones and pearls.


Last night we had great entertainment. 4 to five. 5 young men that sang a cappella and were just super. They started out as a barbershop quartet and then found the 5th man that could make all the different sounds of instruments. so 4 to 5! Today we attended a seminar on

Basic electricity and protection. (for your RV. Which is different than your home.

Even I understood, just do not ask me to repeat what he said.


The evening entertainment was a ventriloquist with four dummies. He is labeled as Fuuny Dummies. Not bad, but we had seen him before, we just cannot remember where or when. Is that a song?

Did you get our picture of the strawberry sundae. It has been said that the annual Strawberry festival will be without strawberries due to the number of hard freezes this past month. Parksdale has their own supply of strawberries and still had strawberries last Saturday.


We have another picture for you (we hope) from the top of the motor home. You can see a tent in the distance in the picture. Barely. Have a good day, stay warm.
