RV Show and Ocean Fest

This past weekend may have been named JimandChris events weekend! There was the Fort Lauderdale RV Show, Ocean Fest, and the Fort Lauderdale Computer Show. RVs, Scuba Diving, and Computers. What else is there in life? That's just about covers it for Jim and me. First stop was the RV show. It brought back memories of 3 years ago. We went to this same show just to look. :-) We were still looking at camper vans, class B's, primarily the RoadTrek. We just wanted a way to travel on weekends and maybe a week here and there. Then, at this RV show, we stepped into a 24 ft. Class C that had a small bedroom in the back. Jim made the comment, "gee, we could take out this bed and put a small office back here. Then we could live in something like this." Well, I'm surprised the folks around us weren't blinded by the lightbulbs flashing over our heads. From that day on, we only looked at rigs big enough to live in, and it only took a few months before we were! Next stop was Ocean Fest. Our kayak scuba club, Kayuba, had volunteered to work the gate, being the ticket-takers and information-givers. Here's Mom and Uncle John working their shift before Jim and I came to relieve them. It was a beautiful day on South Beach: We saw lots of old friends. Some with new additions! Jim spent some time in the Kayuba booth with Andy. When our shifts were done, we went across the street to Bahia Cabana for dinner. It's a great spot to eat and pretend that one of those yachts is yours.
