Hey DE rally gang,

Nancy and I are coming to this rally! We were not able to 100% commit to it until Nancy's doctor appt. back in Chicago on Tuesday. Things are progressing well with her recovery, such that we are able to make this trip. We are well over half way. We're near State College, PA this morning and will push into Lincoln, DE late this afternoon.

Called Jon and Patti last night while we were driving and turns out they were only a few miles behind us! PA is Jon's territory so he decided to peel off I-80 behind me and start heading south a bit. We'll catch up with each other at some point today - unless they got up and out at 6 am! Hoping to get on the road by 8:30 ourselves.

Looking forward to this rally, no matter the weather. Getting together and having fun it what it's all about, rain or shine

Jim
and Nancy and the Yorkies

Kevin and Neely's Landmark is in the middle of the campground. We have a couple across from us who were unaware of the club or forum. They use their Bighorn as a summer place.

Found a crab shack last night, as recommended by Brent at the CG office. He also told us if we were interested to let him know and he would make a call.....
That worked out well, got there, gave our name and they said yes we are expecting you, come this way - right past a small crowd sitting outside waiting for a table.

I don't know what current crab prices are, and this seemed a little high, but they were large and excellent!
A dozen large crabs actually counted out to 14 and includes a daily special of very good mussels. Never had deviled eggs before in a restaurant, these were very good too. And I only got charged for 1 one draft Yeungling - maybe it was the phone call, maybe not - all is good!

To paraphrase Cheryl, "SIGN "EM UP!!"

About 12 miles south of the CG on the northbound side. "The Surfing Crab" small blue and white building.
The blue claws are imported from Lake Pontchartrain, LA

Actually JB I say "go git 'em!" So "go git 'em" Duane!!! At least make them part of this rally if they are permanents down there!!!

 

[porthole]

They are gone already, they only stay during the week and usually leave by Thursday. I did try getting them to come to the pot luck though

Had a last minute change of plans yesterday afternoon that freed up our weekend again, so at 4:00 we decided to re-sign up for the rally. Arrived last night at 9:40pm. No problems getting in site, just need to adjust my location a little this morning so I'm on centered on the pad - couldn't quite achieve a level status last night. We're on 151 (across from the Bylinski's). So glad to be here - even with the heat.

 

[jbeletti]

Cool Gus - I'll walk down to say hi when I feel brave enough to venture out I added the window shades on 3 of the outside windows, so that will help today. See you around!

So - will this be the first "it's too hot to go outside" rally??????? We'll all "connect via Wi-Fi?

Even Molly doesn't want to stay out - and she loves the outdoors

 

[jbeletti]

Hot here today like it is in many parts of the country. I smoked up some ribs and pork shoulder. Stayed indoors a lot. Ventured out later as the sun went down. Went to dinner with rally friends, helped deliver some rally bags, then went to the pool with a ton of other Heartlanders. It was very refreshing. Breakfast at the rally hall in the morning

 

[dbylinski]

How does a rally group stay together in 100+ degree heat??

Simple - Move the festivities to the pool!

Thanks to Delaware Beaches Jellystone Resort for keeping the pool open almost all night - every night!!!!

 

[dieselsweetheart]

Oh Debbie....I don't have words for your photo of the gang in the pool.... I just don't.
