The Pot Luck Dinner at River Plantation Resort in Sevierville, Tennessee

Our last meal together at the SKP Acre Rally is a Potluck Dinner.  I wonder what 70+ couples will prepare to share for a group meal....





Just about everything....
Meat Dishes, Casseroles,
Vegetables, Salads &....







.... an amazing assortment of desserts...  Cakes, cookies, pies, brownies...

We gather together & share

stories of our trips

 throughout the area.

Sue, Peg, Grumpy, Bill &
Eric share the day's news.

Pat & I joined the table &

Eric took a photo.

Dinner... There were too many choices and no one had a big enough appetite to try
every dish.

Steve announced the winners
of the remaining Door Prizes,
with help from Marilyn

The second Kindle Fire

is in need of a home.

The lucky winner gets some
basic instructions for
registering her new
device.










Rally attendees lingered over their desserts and started to say good-byes.  Some of us are leaving early tomorrow morning.  Others are staying an extra day or two before continuing to their next stop... a campground, friend's home or back home.

 Ooops....

Someone didn't close the

Out House Door.

It's a two seater; maybe he

wants company.

We are seated in the Hatfield
section of this 748 seat
dinner amphitheater.

McCoys say... You Might

Be A Hatfield If...

People Hear Your Truck

Long Before They See It

Dinner is served Family Style
in pots that are passed
around the table.






Ma is quite the cook!  The Fried Chick'n, Barbecue Pulled Pork, Southern Style Creamy Soup, Smashed Mashed Potatoes, Corn on the Cob, Homemade Bread and No Tellin' What's In It Coleslaw are dee-licous!  The Chocolate Pudding has bits of cake in it...  Yum!

We enjoy dinner as tonight's

feudin' starts.

There's lots of dancing...

... & lots of fighting.

Did you know that Pa Hatfield and Ma McCoy were in love all those years ago?

They were supposed to meet under the Elm Tree, but someone was sitting under

the Sycamore Tree instead.

With no girl to pitch woo with, Pa Hatfield went and stole the McCoy's pig.

There's been nothing but fussin' and feudin' ever since.....

Everything's a musical

instrument deep in 

the woods.

Smoke shows there's an

unfortunate Out House

incident.... 

The Winner of the Talent Show takes home $1,000.00.

Hatfields play their best

Country Music.

The McCoys play Rap Music

 with a Country rhythm.

This is a first down in the holler...

The Hatfields & the McCoys
win the talent show,
together.

To celebrate, the families make

 sweet music together.

And.... 51 years later, there's a wedding...

... & a joyous wedding

reception.

The Hatfields and McCoys will be feudin' no more, until....  the next time.

Eggs in a Bag... At the SKP Acre Rally in Sevierville, Tennessee

Have you ever eaten "Eggs in a Bag?"  This customized Omelette is a SKP Acre favorite.

Volunteers crack open raw
eggs & put them in coffee
mugs.

Bring a bag with your name

on it & continue down the

 table to add your chosen

ingredients.

Add your choice of onions,

peppers, bacon, ham,

cheese & create your 

custom made Omelette.

Each "eggy bag" is collected and taken to the kitchen to be cooked in pots of boiling water.  Whi

While the custom made omelettes

are cooking in pots of boiling

water in the kitchen, rally

attendees toast bagels...

Make their morning coffee,
tea and get a glass of juice.

When the custom made Omelettes are done, names are called out and rally members collect them. Breakfast is served!

"My 41" at River Plantation RV Resort in Sevierville, Tennessee

Check out the great job
on this car!

I think it is "garaged" in this

 trailer, pulled by a tag axle

 motorhome.

This trailer is definitely
it's "home."












Norwood, the owner, from Kentucky, brought his pride and joy to compete at The Spring Grand Rod Run just down the road in Pigeon Forge.

It's a 1941 Willys

Americar Sedan.

Check out the chromed
engine!

The artwork under the

hood is beautiful!

I hope the owner is a prize winner at this month's car show.

The Grand Spring Rod Run in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee

Car owners from all over bring

 their cars, trucks & motorcycles

 to Pigeon Forge for The 

Grand Spring Rod Run.

Owners exhibit their "rides"
in front of businesses on
the Parkway.

Traffic moves slowly past

the hundreds of vehicles

on display.

Passersby admire have
lots to admire.







My guess is that people can walk for miles closely inspecting hundreds of cars, trucks and motorcycles.

I love this Truck!

A Motorcycle & a

Roadster

Great paint job!

I like inspecting engines on

older vehicle...

It's nice to see a metal radiator.

The little orange car is

soooo cute! 

I love the paint job on
this Antique Ford.

This Roadster is a work

in progress.

Pigeon Forge hosts car shows from March through September.  There are different themed shows with lots of opportunities to display their prized "rides."
