Bowling Green, OH - FMCA Convention

Sat (7-18-09): We caravanned up to Bowling Green for the FMCA Convention. It was about an hours drive. We got parked in a gravel parking lot just behind the football stadium where all of the evening entertainment would be held.

Sun (7-19-09): Bowling Green hosted a downtown celebration for the FMCA attendees with live music. We drove down to check it out and ran into Larry & Pat Welsh and Nan and Jim Cooper!

Mon (7-20-09): We took a day trip over to Lake Erie (so Mem could stick her foot in it) and to see the Marblehead Lighthouse, have lunch and check out the Bon Ami winery at Catabaw, OH.

Mem with her foot in dirty Lake Erie!

We did a little wine tasting at the Bon Ami Winery http://www.bonamiwinery.com/ and bought a few bottles of wine. My favorite was the Gewurztraminer, which I proceeded to drink all of it that night!

On the way back to Bowling Green, we stopped at a roadside farm store and bought salt and pepper sweet corn for supper to go with our steaks. Oh, so good!

Tue, Wed & Thu (7-21-23-09): We checked out the venders booths and went thru a few of the coaches. No 2010 coaches are being manufactured so there wasn't anything really new that we hadn't already seen. Mem and I did a little shopping at some of the Bowling Green stores that we don't have back in VA--Hobby Lobby & Elder Biermans.

Fri (7-24-09): We packed up and headed over to Warren, IN to visit the Campbells for the weekend and then go to Indy to get new shoes for the coach.
