Yesterday morning we pulled a long hose to fill our fresh water tank, and filled drinking water bottles from a laundry room. We made pancakes for breakfast. At about 10:30 we went on a run to the Sylvania mine led by Herb and Dave. On the way Dave's car broke down. We left it parked on the road side, put him and his passengers in the other cars, and took off for the mine. After taking pictures and enjoying the scenery we headed back to Dave's car. Keith towed him back to camp. When we got back to camp Herb opened the Saloon and others helped us get all the drinks, wine, etc. and set up for our heavy hors d'oeurves night. We proceeded to eat too much. Later we chat around another nice campfire. We have 34 persons for this rally, and are joined by some of Herb's family and guests.
