Not Exactly a Rally

[Vermilye]

While there are over 100 trailers & RVs here, I can't call it a rally, but a worthy event.

I'm currently camping in a field at the 19th "Pickin' in the Pasture", a 4 day Bluegrass Festival on a farm in Lodi, NY. Some great music - one other fiberglass trailer in the park - a Burro. Some photos starting here (wish I could post recordings of the music!)

Music festivals are lots of fun, eh? I spent the last two weekends at a couple different ones.

The last one had a few hundred RVs and tents at it. RVs included a fair few VW Vanagans, up to a few 40' Class A Mohos. I saw no Escapes, but a few Bolers, Trilliums and Bigfoots.

I'm currently setting in front of the outdoor amphitheater in downtown Cedar Rapids Iowa. The entertainment is a local jazz ensemble led by Eddie Pickard. Eddie and his group played at my oldest daughters wedding about 15 years ago. The park's director and I encouraged our local community college to stat this program about 28! Years ago. My son and daughter will be showing up shortly.
Lots of fun.

Sounds like my kind of fun. Wish we were there.

Now THAT would be my kind of 'rally' - cool event title too. Seems a good enough reason to be "…stuck in Lodi again!" Edit time: I got a look at your pics Jon, and the event website. I see that Jeff Scroggins and Colorado are on Saturday. I spent some time with Greg Blake while helping with a July McCall kids music camp. Neat guy, fine instructor, and he does a rousing rendition of "Freeborn Man".
