Lucky us! We are at the entrance of the Uiversity stadium and across the street from Starbucks, Big Boy and a few other eating places. And we are easy to find!

Went to the devotions this morning. Almost missed it as I thought it was at 9:00. Nope 8:30. We got there OK. It was good. The pianist and vocalist were from the 1st United Methodist Church from Campus. and the speaker we had heard before. Glad we went. And saw several people from Indiana and then a friend from S. Carolina, now living in Florida. Except they have been on the road since June 1. We do live a hard life out here in RV lan
Saturday We went to garage sales. Talked with one group of "students" selling out! We are on the Bowling Green State University campus. The young man has two more years to get his Doctorate. In College Administration. Getting married next Saturday. They asked a lot of questions about the RV's on campus. So we invited them out to see our 11 year old coach. They were impressed, nicer than some of their rooms they had had in college. Most of the garage sales were students about to leave campus for the last time. No silverware here! While driving around Ernie took some pictures of the many RV's parked here. Just a small portion of the 3000 expected.

Then off to the Easy Street Cafe. With Carol, Jerry and MaryAnn. We had ribs and they were good. We had to wait half an hour. Busy place, And most of the people had on FMCA name tags. We are asked to wear them as we go about town so that the Business people know we are out spending money in their city. And we do.
This after noon Bowling Green is having a downtown "Bash" Stores open, sidewalk sales, entertainment, etc. an additional Welcome FMCA from the city.
This evening we go to the volunteer "supper" that the National Officers give for the 700 plus volunteers that staff these conventions. Ernie and I, plus others from our club will be working in the FMCA "store" Would you like to buy a jacket, t-shirt,cap or map holder. The store has them all with the FMCA logo.
Time to fix lunch. Saturday while out shopping we found a farmers market stand. They had the most delicious tomatoes. Bought 3 and then went back later and bought 6 more. Almost like straight from an Indiana garden. Write later. jkc
Our Rallies are usually a lot of fun. Oh yeah, thanks for the chicks n hens. Hopefully I'll get them planted today. We got home late last night and still haven't fully unpacked.
