On Sunday 7/14/17 we are headed to Indianapolis, IN for the FMCA rally. The rally did not begin until Monday but we wanted to get through Chicago with the least traffic. We were lucky and they parked us when we arrived at the fairgrounds. It was 91 degrees and very humid so they even turned on the electricity so we could use our AC! One of the great things about rallies is that friends we have met along the way are there and we get to reconnect! Mark and Bettye, from TX, will be there and so will Harry and Sandi from CO. We have invited both couples to the Entegra dinner on Friday night.
We are parked on the grassy infield of the Indiana State Fair Grounds horse track. Harry and Sandy are two streets down on the cement, but they are at a low point of the area. Mark and Bettye are on gravel in a lot that is a distance from the Fair Grounds. Indy has had rain daily since we arrived and some coaches have had to move because they were sinking. Truck loads of gravel and dirt have been brought in so that other coaches are able to exit when needed. One lot was informed that they might not be able to exit until late Sunday because of standing water!
Mark had the gravel under his coach and a gravel road to exit his parking area. Harry will be able to exit because the rain has stopped and the flood outside his coach has dried. We are in grass and will have the most trying exit. Duf always puts wood under our tires and jacks and that is going to be very helpful in this sinking situation.
