Anybody going to "the Rally" in Louisville at end of July. We decided to drive over and get a day pass. Would love to meet fellow dreamers if you are attending. Howard, if you read this any restaurant recommendations? We will arrive on Friday July 23, do the rally on Saturday and depart Sunday.

I will be doing the Day Pass on Thursday the 22nd. Sorry to miss you, but thee will be literally thousands of people taking my place on Friday. ;)
Not sure where you will be staying, but on of my favorite places to eat in Lousiville is Ditto's on Bardstown Road. It is not as fancy, but the food is always delicious!
For a fancier place downtown try the Camberly Brown Hotel. Unique and a trip back in time.

Last year at the NJ Rally we won free admission (dry camping) to the National. Had planned on going. However, due to damage to fifthwheel (not yet fixed) and being needed to attend to ill family members, unable to go.
Maybe some other year. But it won't be at a discounted rate. (We were planning on paying difference to update to FHU's)
To all attending - have a great time.

Hi,
I am ten miles south of the Kentucky Exhibition Center and it was near one hundred degrees today. We arrive yesterday and found it hotter than Jacksonville, FL.
We primarily came up for a surprise birthday party tomorrow night for Ethel's brother. She flies back Wednesday a.m. and I will stay to walk the show Friday.
Oh, if you are coming, do not bother to bring a jacket or sweater.

Hello,
My wife and I will be attending the Rally for a couple of days. We are interested to learn more about the RV Lifestyle, pro's and con's of different RV's and to learn as much as we can about full timing (my wife is waming up to the idea!). This is our first RV event, any tips for a couple of rookies???

Oh, have a plan should you get separated! Enjoy!!

Thanks ROZ! Those are great tips... It's kind of hard for someone who has never been to anything like this to understand just how large the event will be! We are anxiously looking forward to take in as much as possible!
