Diggin' the graphics.
That is Casey Tubman of Newmar. There is no middle ground, you wither like it, or you don't. :) Certainly strays from the classic London Aire graphics.

It was a great night! One half of the park hosted goodies yesterday, and the other half will put on their show tomorrow. It’s been a lot of fun meeting the Hoots members and winding our way around the park.

Last night I also got to witness Steve Showalter’s famous Bacon BBQ for the first time. And let me tell you, when Steve says bacon, he means bacon. He cooks up a mountain of it over a giant open firepit, and then his helpers hand it out to the crowd. I’d heard about it before, but I hadn’t imagined the scale of the operation.

And this isn’t a quick, 10-minute cook-off either. Steve keeps it going for hours, and from what I hear, he’ll be firing it up again tomorrow. I mean really, who doesn’t like bacon?

Snagged these two pics off of the Hoots 2025 page.

Newmar execs are talking tomorrow at 9:00 am. Pretty sure my schedule will allow this, so I plan to go. Question and answer period is sure to be part of it. Any (reasonable) questions you would like this reporter to ask?
 
@osuallen, did you bring that funny apron again?
 
So tonight is the night before the last night of this years "Hoots" rally. And to close it out, we had an awesome band come to play for the hooters! And here is how it played out . . .

Set One: The Time Machine
The band came out swinging with those 70s classics, guitars wailing, hips swaying, polyester trembling. For a while it felt like the 70's never died, except now the moves were slower and occasionally accompanied by groans that weren’t part of the rhythm section.

Set Two: The Slow Retreat
By halfway through, the dance floor was still hopping, if you count shuffling, toe-tapping, and the occasional chair dance as “hopping.” But you could see it in the crowd: watches being checked, yawns sneaking in, and people quietly calculating how long it would take to get from the parking lot to their golf carts, and then to their pajamas.

The Vanishing Act
The band had three sets on the schedule, but by the end of the second it was clear they weren’t battling crowd fatigue… they were battling bedtime. Folks weren’t leaving because they didn’t like the music, they were leaving because the siren song of the mattress was louder than the amps.

The Survivors
Still, about 20 of us held out to the bitter end, cheering like champions. Credit goes to the “squerly girls”, Trish and Renee, who, were the hot girls of the night. They danced, laughed, and brought the kind of spark that kept the rest of us from packing it in early.

The band closed with one last jam, not because they were tired, but because the audience was disappearing faster than free dessert at a Golden Corral. Then we all gathered for a picture, proof that we had outlasted the curfew of our own biological clocks.

Whether that picture is ever posted is questionable and remains to be seen. Having fun with Class A Newmar's doesn't mean you have to be young, you just need to feel young. :p
