Perry GA FMC Convention

It was another sunny day in Perry GA. We both got up early and caught the 7:30 tram over to the South Africa RV seminar. This was presented by a company who sponsors these trips, but it was a rather neat photo presentation of an RV trip in Africa. Bill and I want to go to Africa, but not this way. They are gone for 37 days, and it costs $15,000 per person plus gas. We are looking at a National Geographic tour that is also expensive but is a much more civilized trip.

After the presentation we shared a breakfast at one of the two restaurants. Bill went on to his three hour RVing seminar, and I came back to the RV. We lost power for about 15 minutes. This has been an iffy electrical setup. Our clocks are losing about 10 minutes every 24 hours. Bill went to the ice cream social that was supposed to start at 1pm. They were out of ice cream by the time he got there at 1:15, so he wandered around talking to some vendors before he came back to the RV. I took a nap before we headed into Perry at 5. We went to Walmart and then had dinner at a Chinese buffet. It wasn’t too bad. We did drive around the outskirts of the fairgrounds, and the number of RVs here is mind-boggling. Hopefully we can get an aerial photo of the convention. That would be impressive. Bill also picked up some info on Stone Mountain, our next destination.

I've been to Stone Mountain many times--if you can, go to the night show on the side of the mountain.
