Family and Friends: Chapters Double Their Fun In Branson

February 1, 2015
January 2015
 
The Gateway Getaways and Ozark Ridge Runners chapters enjoyed a joint rally May 19-23, 2014, in Branson, Missouri. Thanks go out to those who planned the event, Don and Joyce Sturms of the Ozark Ridge Runners and Mark and Linda Boka of the Gateway Getaways.
 
A delicious potluck dinner kicked off the rally, which was held at America’s Best Campground. Members of both chapters had fun making new friends and learning about the other chapter’s activities and how its rallies are planned. Members also exchanged information about their favorite destinations. 
 
Rally highlights included evening entertainment at the campground by the Farnum Family, who performed a fantastic program of bluegrass music. We also took a cruise on Lake Taneycomo, where members saw a pair of bald eagles perched on a tree branch near the shore. Captain Matt did a great job explaining the interesting history of the lake. 
 
Some adventuresome friends visited the Copper Run Distillery for tastings of moonshine and rum. Then, off they went to a bed and breakfast/wedding destination to taste wine. Branson also offered many shows and plenty of delicious dining at Branson Landing.

  • #throwbackthursday to the sixth FMCA convention, way back in July, 1969. The convention took place at the Traverse City Civic Center in Traverse City, Michigan and featured RV displays, seminars, vendors, and lots of entertainment. ⁠ ⁠ Fast forward 52 years and 96 conventions to today. We are getting ready for FMCA
  • "We were stranded along a narrow road near Bryce Canyon, Utah. The location was not a good place for cellular service, but I was able to contact Roadside Rescue and arrange for a tow after driving our towed vehicle to the town of Bryce. I had to speak with several people at Roadside Rescue, but each person I spoke with was respectful and courteous. The tow was set up and our rig taken to a place that promptly took care of the repair and we were back on the road in 24 hours."⁠ ⁠ Michael & Lynn Noonan (F448134)⁠ ⁠
  • In remembrance of Martin Luther King Jr., let us remember to honor his legacy by continuing to take steps toward equality and righteousness within ourselves, our communities and our nation. That means that we must recognize the human dignity in all of the people we encounter along our journeys.⁠ ⁠ “Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.”-MLK⁠ ⁠ ⁠
  • "Winter! Some love it, some hate it. Winter is a time when there is a stillness in the air but there is also a dryness which can lead to issues with our immune system. Couple that with shorter days, lack of sunlight (which can lead to low energy levels), layers of clothing to keep our skin from absorbing the nutrients of Vitamin D from the sun (crucial for maintaining a strong immune system), and lack of proper hydration due to not feeling thirsty (caused by to cooler temps and less perspiration); ALL of this can lead to our immune systems
  • The Royal Gorge in Canon City, Colorado is one of those places where you leave thinking, "How did I never know about this place before?".⁠ ⁠ Check out our latest travel blog - The Royal Gorge and Canon City, Colorado. It is filled with history, geology, adventure, and LOTS of beautiful photos! Thanks to @mandmhittheroad for contributing this week
