Alumafiesta Trip 2014 – Day 4 – More Aluminum

The kampground is really filling out today.  The Airstream count easily tripled.  We are now surrounded by Aluminum.  It is not only wonderful to see all these trailers it is even more heartening to see old friends.  We have seen many that we got to know at Alumafandango 2013.  We are also getting to know others that we will, I am sure, see down the road and at future events.

The festivities started this afternoon.  Rich and Brett, the organizers of these events, held a ‘Stump the Chumps’ seminar where people would ask them questions.  After that was ‘Yappy Hour’.  This is where Airstreamers with dogs could go to the dog park to meet, both dogs and attendees.  Roxie and I went as our motto is: “We love other people’s dogs”.  Following right on the heels of that was the human’s happy hour.  The LazyDays people (they own the KOA) sponsored this.  Everyone was invited to have a piece of wedding cake and champagne as a couple was honeymooning here at Alumafiesta!

In the evening was a seminar that was put on a couple of writers that wrote with an Airstream twist.  We met both authors at the Alumafandango.  Greg Zeigler and Tom Schabarum exchanged readings from their books, gave some inspirations of their work and also some tips for aspiring authors.  A Q&A session ensued.  It was good to see Tom again even though he flew in for only one night.  No Airstream for him!

Tomorrow holds more excitement, I am sure!
