WWW New Years Rally 2013

Well this is our third New Years Rally and it seems to grow by more RV's each year.

We had some coaches that had to leave early and some came later so we never had full count at one time. The Dudleys' left due to both being ill. the Masons left due to Ray being ill. Please remember all in your prayers for their good health to return.
We went to Pizza Shack for those who came early. On Sunday we went to Vernon's catfish but we forgot our camera, too much in hurry to get there for their eggnog. On Monday we went to Fajita Jacks and had some guest join us. On New years eve we had a wonderful meal with John Hearn and also Ronnie(Sharon's friend} doing the meat. Which was wonderful.  We all brought different things to go with it and it turned out great. Thanks to the Briggs for the black eye peas and the ladies that made the cornbread for midnight.
We have started a tradition, well lets say Edwina and Maria have started a tradition which we are carrying on at our WWW rallies. We start a puzzle when the first arrive with it and then we try to, and we always have finished it by the end of the rally.  it took some of us diehards to 2:30 a.m. to finish this one. Jesse Soto was one of those and he had been up over 36 hours and he could still see the puzzle pieces. That away to go Jesse.
We played several different games and all had a great time.  a few were po-ke-no, skip-bo, pass the love, loaded questions, craps, and of course the puzzle. May have forgot some.
If you have never attended one of these rallies you really need to mark your calendar and join us this year.
Some stayed over to the second. Those that stayed went to the Pizza Shack again for lunch.  Jesse helped George get a roaring fire going and some of us ladies played pok-ke-no by the fire and with umbrellas.
the Bechards and Sharon Goodlet stayed over an extra day due to the high winds on the 2nd.

Happy New Year To All. Hope to see you at rally in 2014.
We have February, March, May  and Nov. open for rally and host. Sign up it is fun and you always get help.
