April 28/16 Weather 55, rainy, cool at night 43. Seems the weather is going to be like this right thru the weekend. We moved 17 miles today; oh yes it was a really big day!

| checkin at the Rally |
Registration day starts at the Elkhart County 4-H Fairgrounds for the Holiday Rambler 419 Chapter Diesel Pusher Maintenance Rally. The fairgrounds are in Goshen, Indiana which happens to be in the heartland of the RV factories and suppliers. Holiday Rambler and Monaco are in the same company umbrella so we were able to come to the Rally as a sistership member. Billy reads a Monaco Forum Group daily where the members ask and answer questions related to our motorhome. A technical question we had was answered not long ago by a gentlemen who suggested we attend this Rally since the theme is "maintenance".

| We are being escorted to our site in the Racetrack infield |
There are about 250 coaches in attendance and we are escorted to the racetrack camping area where we have water/sewer/power. Unfortunately or maybe fortunately when we plugged in the power we had a technical situation. Well if we have to have a problem this is the right time and the right place. Everyone was so helpful from the moment we tried to setup.

| All kinds of guys trying to help us out |
The HR fellows never left Billy. They went and got technical help immediately from one of the Vendors. Our power at the surge protector had to be bypassed for the night while the part was ordered and being expedited in.
The thing about RVing is that you meet the nicest people in the world. Tonight at the social hour we found friends we had made at a previous rally in Nevada. It was so good to see them, just like yesterday:) That's what makes our life so great.
