We are
on the road again but this time only driving 65 miles to the Spring Lake RV
Resort near Crossville, TN for the club’s final 2019 rally and our annual
business meeting.
We had
11 coaches in attendance (two visitors) but would have had a couple more had the folks who
live next door in Fairfield Glade brought their coaches. This is our group and we are the second site which has a concrete parking
pad with gravel at each end – it was reasonably level.
The
campground has an out-front part where we were and a rear lake part (below) with 20+ sites in each place.
Louie and Bill insisting I get their picture - turned out well.
We got
to the campground around 1:30pm on Monday and spent the afternoon catching up
with the others before heading to the Beef & Barrel Restaurant for
a group supper. I was too busy eating & visiting
to take any shots - our food was decent but nothing special even though the
place was packed and folks were waiting to get in.
On
Tuesday, our main event was a trip to the Cumberland County Playhouse (a first
for me) to see Baskerville, a Sherlock Holmes Mystery (comedy) which took place
in the smaller of the two theaters – with very uncomfortable chairs. I could only make it through the first half
before my hip said enough of being in that one cramped position, so I went to the car. I thought the play was okay but not great
although I was impressed with the number of characters that several of the
actors played and how quickly they could change clothes – five actors playing 45 characters. I assume this is the kind of place where actors start out to hone their skills.
In case you were wondering, we are in Cumberland County on the Cumberland Plateau of the Cumberland Mountains.
That evening, we sat around the faux campfire and visited - always a favorite part of mine and the propane fire rings make it so easy and smoke free.

So
ends the first two fun days with this group – I always enjoy being with them.

What a fun way to spend time with friends.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a nice place. Glad you are having a good time.
ReplyDeleteLarry, Nice looking RV Park with that little lake in the middle... We've been to the Cumberland County Playhouse several times over the past 10 years but never have seen anything in the smaller theater. The seats in the big theater must be a bit more comfortable or I would have suffered too. With one exception, we've always enjoyed the plays! You stayed with the salad...better than I would have done! I like that restaurant's fried chicken! Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
