Escapees RV Club Chapter 42

The 2008 Ken-Tenn Chapter 42 Fall Rally at the Pin Oak Campground in Natchez Trace State Park was a new experience for most of the attendees. The campground has full hookups, clean restrooms and is situated on Pin Oak Lake. Almost half of our group arrived on the Sunday prior to the rally to enjoy one of Tennessee’s nicest parks. On Tuesday night our group visited a local family-owned restaurant, McAlexander’s in downtown Lexington to sample some of the local cuisine. Wednesday morning found us caravanning to Loretta Lynn’s Ranch where we toured the museum and walked about the grounds taking pictures. Several of us stopped at the Loretta Lynn Kitchen restaurant for lunch. Next was a stop at the Birdsong RV Resort & Pearl Museum, where we viewed a film on the establishment of the only freshwater pearl farm in the country. Owner Bob Yeast gave us an overview of his family history and his future plans for the resort. Several of our members expressed a desire to come back for a rally at the resort. Wednesday night found us at the Natchez Trace State Park Lodge for a buffet. We then join a number of others for some game play. Thursday was a free day for relaxing and exploring the surrounding areas. The park has several miles of good cycling roads and some good hiking trails around the lake. The afternoon was spent learning and playing “Ladder Golf”. The potluck dinner Thursday night left everyone ready for a relaxing time around the fire that Ed and Peggy Landers created every night. The hosts prepared breakfast for the group on Friday morning, with hot cereals, pastries, fruit, coffee, and hot chocolate. After some cycling and walks around the park, the group got up another round of “Ladder Golf”. The women seemed to be able to win most of the matches with little effort. Friday night found us once again enjoying a great “Seafood Buffet” at the Lodge. Game night found many of us playing “Farkle” and “Hand & Foot”. We especially appreciated how the folks at the Lodge allowed us to use their facilities and accommodated our group in so many ways. We want to also welcome Ed & Peggy Landers, who came as guests of John & Sharon Adams, and who became our latest SKP and Ken-Tenn members at the rally.
