2016-4-30 NOVA Hadocy Airstream & RV Rally

Friends Tom & Ella's NOVA Airstream group was once again kind enough to invite Carie & I to their rally at the Haydocy Airstream and RV dealership rally in Columbus, OH. This rally was really different and pretty cool and very fun. It was actually at the dealership in their front parking lot! The dealer, Haydocy is a Airstream and T@B and Little Guy dealer so although this rally is geared towards the Airstream side of thing since Carie & I have a T@B we weren't too odd being the only T@B there. The idea is the rally shows potential Airstream buyers how the owners use their Airstreams and an actual Airstream rally and the rally helps get people to buy Airstreams from the dealership so it's a win/win for both NOVA and Haydocy. It also worked well as Carie & I had scheduled an appointment for some electrical repair work at the Haydocy service center but turns out there was no electrical problem but rather what I thought was a problem was just our Progressive Industries power protector doing exactly what it was supposed to do. Plus I got a few custom upgrades done to our T@B including a very cool "RV Chandelier" that is an LED ring of lights the goes around the ceiling vent fan. A photo of it installed is at the very bottom of the photos below. Below are a few pictures of the rally...

Ralliers around the campfire. Yes, we even had a campfire in the middle of the parking lot.

Airstreams Eastern regional director. Tim brought his 1938 John Deere home made ice cream maker!

Haydocy was generous enough to send their crew around to wash everyone's RV!

...and of course I let everyone who was interested try the Segway's. Here. Airstreamer Terry giving it a go. He was hysterical! He picked it up extremely quickly and as the music played in the background he was dance on the Segway as he zoomed around!!!
