Halloween AGAIN!

So this isn't a second post about our annual trip and Cardinal Center, but instead about an annual Airstream rally that we've not been able to make it to...ever; and it's in its 3rd year.  An unexpected bonus to this rally is that the campground (Findley State Park http://parks.ohiodnr.gov/findley) moved its trick-or-treat from the previous weekend which was lousy weather to this weekend.  It is also the campgrounds' annual chili cook-off.  So we hit the tri-fecta.  Trick-or-treat, chili, and an Airstream rally.  Loren left no stone unturned as usual for her rallies.  This rally is also the "Anniversary Rally" for Loren and Mike.  So there's a lot of things that came together for this rally and we were thrilled to be able to finally take part in it.  It was a bit chilly weather-wise, but we came prepared.  The kids scored big-time on candy.  The rally was a hit as 32 Airstreams showed up from two countries and (I think) 3 states.  I discovered a thing called Everclear, and I hope to never discover it again.  I don't remember much after consuming it.

This is what a rally should look like.  A gathering around a campfire.

It got a little chilly at night around the fire.

Candy gathering made easy...just run the gauntlet.
  
Cellular reception was good.
 
This was a great picture taken by one of the rally guests.  It has been printed in full size and will become a picture that is hung on our house.
