Western Gypsy Gathering

Today was day 3 of the rally. Monday was a miserable day. The cold wind was gusting to at least 50 miles an hour all day. We walked up to the main building for orientation and then back again in the evening for social hour and door prizes. But at least the wind dried up most of the mud holes, until it rained again that night! You got it, more mud!!

Tuesday was the start of the seminars and we have attended most. We've learned about researching some back road finds, volunteering on the road and how to write a resume for working part time somewhere. Tomorrow is the last day and we hope to learn some fire safety and how to take better photos.

Tonight we had a pizza party and after we had the Cactus Queen Contest. We had 6 men dress as women to compete in a beauty contest. What a hoot! Of course, I didn't have the camera. Check out Nick's Blog, I'm sure he'll have some pictures.

This has been the first rally we have been to and while we have had a good time, I'm not sure if we would ever do another Gypsy Gathering. But, who knows! Next winter we may meander this way.
