Brooksville, 2013

The SEA rally of FMCA


This is the South Eastern Area rally, 2013 of the Family Motor Coach Association.  It is held in February at the Brooksville airport.  Most of the motor homes are parked on the run ways.  We are parked on the grass in front of the vendor tents.  In the Handi cap area.  There are also places for the volunteers, the Frustrated Maestros group and the Road Trek RV group.   This part of the Brooksville Airport is rarely used and so the SEA is able to use it for a 10 or two week period.  They do own a building here, that is used for classes during the rally, storage the rest of the time.  There are different ideas as to how much the area really owns, but it is a nice venue.   We have noticed that the vendor tent is smaller this year.  Are we enjoying our rallies, but not buying the "extra" toys and items that are often at rallies and RV shows?

We came in Sunday, yesterday, the 3rd.  and have a good parking spot.  Today we made a trip to Webster to go to the big flea market held each Monday.  And as usual we spent too much.  Send some cash---- I think we spent more on JJ pins than we did on silver.  We did get a few good pieces of silver.   Home early,  time for a nap before supper.

It is cool, about 60 miles north of where we stay and it makes a difference.
There was frost on the windshield this am.  Wonder if we had frost at Charlies.  My aloe plant will not like that.  Should not hurt the lettuce and onions I planted.  Parsley or chives either.  
We did invest in two new lawn chairs.  Two that we had put new webbing on finally broke.  The metal parts, not the webbing.  So, instead of borrowing our neighbors for this week we got some nice strong chairs,  not too heavy. to keep with the RV.

And   YES  We have a NEW windshield on the passenger side.  No more crack.  The windshields were taken out, the front window area aligned and the new one and driver side windshield put back in.  Yeah.  They even seemed more clear and especially clean.  Clean is something you have to do to most windows. 

Time to close.  We are dry camping, the generator has been running and it is time to close up.  Have a good day.   jkc
