The rally went way too fast! It was sad in that everyone went their own way but exciting that we were all starting a new journey :) We stopped at a distillery, a "swinery" and now are at a candy factory for the night. All 3 are connected with Harvest Hosts, the largest collection of small business campsites in North America. There are over 6,000 hosts across the country. Usually no charge to spend the night but you're expected to buy something from their list of products. No water or electricity, usually, is provided which makes it boondocking time. Soooo.....it wasn't very difficult to find items to buy at the distillery, swinery (brats and salami) and the candy factory. I think it would have been much cheaper to have used a regular campground but then we would miss out on so many wonderful experiences. Over 100 trailers and 230+ people were at the rally and we shared an opening night meal together. Vendors and group discussions help everyone with answers to problems. Our most excellent CGI team, minus Colin, taking a lunch break :) We did have a couple jam sessions to enjoy. The weather just didn't cooperate. Of course the weather didn't bother these guys! An overnight stop at a distillery exposed my ignorance concerning all things bourbon.
