We rolled out early--well, early for us--to go visit kinfolk this morning. About 9:00am Bill, Nancy, Jo and I headed east to Navarre, Florida to visit our cousins who now live down here permanently. Our cousin, Yvonne Graham, and her husband Bob have lived for many years in Cleveland, Ohio, but have wintered in the Navarre area for the past several years. This past year they sold their home in Cleveland and moved to Florida permanently. I had planned to take some pictures of their new house, which backs up to a small lake but I forgot and left my camera in the coach.
I had plotted out the drive on the GPS program on the computer and it showed it was 62.2 miles from the RV park here in Alabama. Back home that would be about an hours drive. This drive was through several small towns and the city of Pensacola. The trip over took two full hours at between 35 and 45 miles per hour. We did change the route back, which took us down along the Navarre and Pensacola beaches. Not only was it a prettier drive but reduced the drive time about 15 minutes.
As of yesterday, counting us, there were four coaches here for the rally. Three more came in this afternoon. We expect several more tomorrow and Saturday with the bulk coming in Sunday. Although the rally does not officially start until Monday evening almost all our folks come in early. We usually say that if you arrive at a Monaco America rally on the day it starts you are about four days late.
