After leaving the bus rally, we drove about 2-3 miles to our other rally with the Boomers. This is an annual rally we go to with about 300 of our old and new to meet friends. As usual, we had all sorts of fun to choose from, potlucks to seminars of everything under the sun, the usual morning walks, hard core hiking, four wheel drives into the desert, pancake & omelet in a bag breakfasts and of course, pegs n jokers with our many Boomer friends. Since we've been there so many times, we hardly ever take pictures anymore, but, I do see I took one, this is looking down the road on our side of where we always park.

We even had a few SOB's, (some other brand or bus)


Waiting to eat

Jere stirring the stew, it sure looks yummy!

My goodness, it has been a looong time since I've updated this blog. I guess I better get busy! After I posted the last one, we left Lake Mittry and went back to our friends in the Foothills to stay for about a week before going to Quartzsite, AZ for the Flxible bus rally. There is always a big turnout for rallies held in Quartzsite, probably because of the great weather and always something to do in town. We also always hold it right before the big weekend of the RV show. I don't know though, it seems more and more, the items in the big tent are getting away from things RV'ers would want to buy; you know, like sewer hoses, generators, macerators, vent covers, holding tank deodorants, awnings, etc. The stuff we're seeing is more for the general public, stuff you would find at any home show or fair.

We took lots of pictures, mostly of the other buses, but, I won't bore you with all those. I just took a few of the general picture of all the buses that attended and the annual hobo stew that president Jere Brannon puts on for those of us who get there early, and this year, it seemed like everyone was there early. Of course, the wonderful weather and low fuel prices had something to do with it I'm sure.
