Amigo Allegros @ Koyote Ranch – Friday

We slept in late this morning, and did not wake up until 9:00am. Since I knew that I would have to pay for WIFI at the rally park, I got online and did a lot of internet stuff this morning. I will buy 24 hours of internet at the rally park late on Friday night, and then have it until late Saturday night.

The rally park is about 10 miles on the other side of Medina. As we came into Medina, we stopped at the ‘Apple’ bakery to try some of their goodies. Medina has a claim to be a “big” apple place, and we decided to check it out. We ended up with a cup of apple/cinnamon ice cream and an apple turnover. It was very good.


We got to the campground and were pleasantly surprised at how nice it was, considering it was out in the hot, dry, sandy hill country. It is a full resort with pool, cottages, B&B facilities, and a camp store with a nice restaurant associated with it. Five rigs attended this rally plus there was one rig that was a guest of Dick and Dianne, who were the host for the weekend.


During the afternoon, Patsy and Connie decided to try out the swimming pool. It is in a nice setting, and they claimed the water was nice and cool:


On Friday nights, the restaurant has an ‘all you can eat’ catfish dinner complete with fried okra, chicken strips, gravy, potato salad, and hush puppies. All this complete with Coke or tea for $8/person. We did our best to eat all we could. Here's a picture of our club president, Mike, going back for the 11th time.......... and a couple of pictures of the group:


During the meal, a couple of the guys went to the restroom, and came back saying that they were giving away iced-down free beer in there. After a while, I went to investigate...... and it reminded me of a trip to Tombstone, AZ with Mark and Sue. Mark would fit in well with these guys........... I think they were grabbing beers and guzzling them down!!


After dinner, we retreated to the game room for a session of Mexican Train......
