Our ribbons from the rally |
September
30 – We didn’t need to be at the main rally building until 10:15 today so we
slept in a while and had breakfast and arrived in plenty of time. This morning was the Beanbag Baseball. Bill and I couldn’t be on the same team
because they put team color tickets in a hat and you pick on and that’s the
team you’re on. So I was green and he
was blue. We only had 6 players and it
was 4 men, me and a woman who had never played but she did really well. They play 9 innings, which it long and have a
6 run rule per inning. I didn’t do so
well the first game but got on base twice and scored runs. Our team won first place and I even had a
home run and several doubles!
Once
of the chapters was selling egg rolls for lunch so we stayed and had some and
they were pretty tasty. The Bean bag
toss (corn hole) was at 2:30 and at first Bill and I were going to be partners
and they decided to play as singles and made us play each other. I was horrible but Bill ended up winning 3rd
place, so we had a really good Rally!
Once I lost to Bill I went in and bet on the horse races but didn’t
win.
Our table decor |
We
took a break back at the RV until time to get ready for the final dinner
tonight. We wore our Lake Eola
vests and were assigned the Connecticut
table with 6 other people. They mixed
everyone up so they could get to meet new people. Dinner was nice with pasta,
chicken, meatballs, salad, green beans and dinner rolls. It was all part of your registration fee, so
that was extra nice. There was cake for
dessert.
Once
the entertainment took a break they did all of the door prizes
Oand we won an
outdoor rotating light and they named all of the game winners, ours came up 4
times!!!! We gave our information to
several couples who will be in Florida
and want to meet up with us. It was
really a good experience and we wish our friends Ron and Barbara could have
joined us.

Time
to wind down, watch some TV and read before packing up tomorrow to start
heading south!
