Tucson- preconvention gathering

On Monday Oct.25th,before the RVW convention begins, 40 Cascadians gathered for what we do best - visit and eat! Everyone has arrived safely - those who drove their RVs, those who flew down and those who are living in the area for the winter.

Since we weren't too quiet, lots of gals walked by wondering who was having all that fun. It was great to find everyone had arrived safely and all are ready to begin to enjoy the convention experience. Below are some pics of the gals last evening.

This is the second convention that Vicki and I have been able to attend since our retirement. There are 260 RVs here and about 480 women will be in attendance. This will be the largest convention that RVW has ever had. Hopefully, all of you will have an opportunity to attend a convention some day. I know from experience how hard it is to be working and unable to make the trek to convention.

I have already been attending Board meetings as an observer and have learned a great deal about the "inner" workings of the organization. I will officially be a Board member beginning in January and then the real work begins.
