We arrived here in Carson City on Monday, and started doing the leg work for our little RV Rally that begins today. Our co-hosts, Bill & "D" Hall arrived on Tuesday, along with Ken & Sandy Carnes. Yesterday, 2 more rigs showed up, Kurt & Betty Simon, and our President - Tom Westerfield with his wife Barbara. Today, the other 7 RV's will arrive throughout the day, and we'll officially kick things off this evening.
On Friday & Saturday, there will be train rides (2), a railroad museum tour, a ride on a 1926 Edwards Streetcar, outhouse races & a parade, a BBQ lunch in Virginia City, and a couple of dinners in Carson City. In between, there will be lots of socializing around the RV's. Lets just say that I didn't build any time into the schedule for an afternoon nap for the next 3 days.
Yesterday, Patty & "D" picked up some stuff at Wal-Mart, and the Dollar Store, while Bill and I drove to Gardnerville, where I picked up the new motor home air filter. We also stopped at the local winery, picking up a bottle of wine to be given away as one of the door prizes. This morning, I'll install the air filter, and temporarily re-route the intake hose until we get home, where I can replace it.
Last night, the 10 of us had dinner at the Olive Garden, where most agreed that the food was good. However, the service was not even close to good. I won't go into the details, but the one thing that really aggravates me at a restaurant, is when you're all done, and you sit, and sit, and sit, waiting for the server to bring your bill. After what seemed like forever to me, I finally got up and told one of the staff that if they wanted to get paid, our server needed to present the bills. On the other hand, the company and conversation was outstanding!
