FOOD, FUN AND FELLOWSHIP

Sunday started out as a beautiful day. We got together with friends, fired up the motorhome and headed north to the Sussex County Grilling Competition. Having never been there, we were not quite sure what to expect so we left early in the morning, o.k. not that early, about 8. We wanted to get a good spot and relax a little. After we arrived at the fairgrounds, we set up the table and chairs and had a great breakfast. Bev and Lou bought bagels, lox, cream cheese. We had everything necessary, especially the coffee. Nothing better than sitting back on a Sunday morning catching up with old friends. We watched as all the classic cars rolled in and saw the smokers in the distance gearing up for an afternoon of grilled meat and veggies. There were all sorts of competitors there grilling and smoking all sorts of beef, pork, chicken, wild game, fruits and vegetables. We enjoyed many different flavors and styles of cooking and some were not as tasty, but hey it was free. Tired from all the walking and eating, Bev and Jan relaxed at the motorhome while Lenny and Lou went to check out the classic car show. Even the "General Lee" was there followed by the cops. On the way home, we stopped at the Mahlon Dickerson campground to empty our holding tanks. It looks like a beautiful place to camp and the price is reasonable. We plan to check it out in the future. On our way there, I noticed the passenger side wall of our motorhome was moving, something it's not supposed to do. Len didn't realize how bad it was until Jan decided to drive the coach for a while so he could sit in the back and see. Yes, it's bad, but we are checking into places to get it fixed. Until then, "Aggie" our motorhome sits in the driveway. Hopefully able to be fixed by the time we are going to Virginia in three weeks. This weekend, it's off to the airshow. Another first for us as we've never been to one. Hope you enjoy travelling with us on the Thomas' Trails...
