Happy St. Patrick's Day

Betty and I put on our St. Patrick's Day outfits for one of the dinners at the Full Timers Rally in Las Cruces, NM, last week. We will probably wear the same clothes for the dinner this week in Tucson.
The Fulltimers Rally last week had 17 motor coaches with 34 people in attendance for the four-day rally. Many of the people will attend other rallies in the southwest before getting together again in Albuquerque for the FMCA (Family Motor Coach Association) Rally.
In the second picture, you can see Cousin Pat playing a version of "snakes and ladders." This version has a wheel that rotates rather than solid bars. Players throw a rope with rubber balls (some use golf balls) on each end and try to wrap the rope around the colored bars to earn points. Each color is worth a different number of points. This game, along with bean bag toss and other games, served as a good way to get people together and have a good time.

On Friday, we drove to Tucson for the Monaco Coach Owners Rally. There will be about 300 coaches in attendance. On the 19th we will head to Albuquerque for the FMCA Rally at the Balloon Fiesta Park and NM Expo.
Warmest regards and may all your travels be safe...Gus
