The morning started out very pleasantly; we were able to take a long walk without getting uncomfortable. By noon, the humidity had built up and it wasn't as fun! Our friends,Rick and Dottie, arrived at the park about 1:15, now the rally could start! They spent last night in Fredericksburg.
Cary and Rick found a barbecue place that was incredible. They got ribs, brisket, chicken, and sausage, plus coleslaw, potato salad, beans and a loaf of homemade bread, plus utensils, plates, napkins, serving spoons--enough for probably 10 people (even Cary with his huge appetite finally got full)--and all very tasty. We figure there is supper for at least one more night.
There was a welcome reception at 7:00 in the big hall, where we all got introduced by state and chapter, then had dessert. Not sure where we put it!
We haven't worked out exactly what else we will be doing, but lots of things were planned: games, a photo contest, a red hat luncheon and for the guys, a greasy hat luncheon (do you call something for guys a luncheon?) , bingo and other games...I am just glad to be spending several days all in the same spot. And with friends!
