Good Day/Bad Day

Today was such a good day. Short drive from Mesa to the Good Sam Rally. On our way to the Phoenix International Raceway where the rally is being held, we saw a bulldozer stuck in the mud with being pulled out with another piece of equipment that we can't name (can't remember the name). Fascinating to watch. We were in line to get into the Rally so had plenty of time to watch.

















This rally is HUGE! Someone said about 5000 RV's.


Tonight's entertainment was Bowser of Sha-na-na. He was great! A crowd of about 10,000 became teenagers all over again and we all had a ball singing along--even did the Twist in the stands. There were contests--one woman of a certain age (at least 70) could hula hoop like you wouldn't believe! And another one won a dance contest--she was 61 and could she ever dance! And the Hand Jive had us all laughing and playing along. We didn't know Bowser was a Julliard graduate in piano. Could he ever play! His Bumble Boogie was fantastic! We left singing "Good Night Sweetheart" as we headed back to walk our dogs along with many other dog lovers.

The sad part of this day was the loss of a dear friend, Dennis Stern. He was Gary's golfing buddy as well as Tuesday Crew teammate. We will miss him more than words can say.
