Started off the rally on the wrong foot with the caterer showing up late. By the time they got all the food set out we had a large crowd waiting. After breakfast we were scheduled to hear from two executives from the Monaco RV LLC company. This is the company that now manufactures these Monaco coaches. To be in sinc with the caterer they were also late arriving, but once they got there we heard a good presentation of where the company is now and what lies ahead for the future. This took most of the morning and another seminar had to be postponed until tomorrow. In the afternoon I spent time catching on paperwork in my job as club Treasurer. Joanne help prepare for and then attended the Ladies Tea.
This evening, following a good meal served by the caterer, we were entertained by Ray Gutierrez, a local musician. Ray was born and raised here in the Texas Hill Country and returned here after traveling during a successful music career. He does a wide variety of music. He bills himself as just a Redneck Mexican Boy. He told us that at one time in his career he was hired to play with a Mexican band and had to have his grandmother teach him Spanish. Prior to dinner we had an open bar for social hour. Our bar this time is being sponsored by Alliance Coach, a RV sales and repair facility in Wildwood, Florida. Our regular head bar tender was injured in a fall prior to the rally and was unable to attend. Two of our members, who normally help with the bar anyway, stepped up to be in charge, Bert Garcia and Ernie Robertson. For this rally we have dubbed it The Bert & Ernie Bar with an appropriate picture of the Sesame Street characters of the same names.
After the evening entertainment we returned to the coach for the evening and were welcomed by not only our dogs but a beautiful full moon.
