Observations while wintering in South Texas

Just found out Jack and Marilyn Mullins are in a park a couple of miles from us, some friends of theirs are in our park, Jack had on a NIBGA t-shirt and the fellow here recognized it since we also where ours, he asked Dave if we knew who they were.

If all the people in this valley are any indication of people of our attendees age group, we don't have to worry about a thing. There are as many down here as ever, and every where we go it is just as crowded so people are still spending money, granted the younger crowds are probably in a bind, but most of our people are retired.

The economy is not going to have a huge impact on us, we are one of the most affordable places for a family to spend the weekend, our early camping may be off but hopefully the yard sale idea will pull some of them in.

We are spending the day with Gene and Nancy Klute, they also come to the festival in Kendallville, Nancy's brother and wife will be here on the 30th , they also camp up on the hill, pretty soon we will have half of our festival goers down here, all wearing NIGBA shirts- - - good cheap advertising.
