We had the good fortune to see the lone sign out on the main drag alerting one to a Pig Roast at the West Cape May Elementary School.  We had to do a little scouting and reconnoitering as we had a hard time finding the sign again at the end of the day on the way home. Back 5th/6th Avenue off of Broadway: A gem of a school supported by a thriving diverse community full of home grown pride. Parents, staff and students alike spoke with pride about their school.  Doors leading outside to each classroom allow student, parents and teachers to see one another as a group at the start and leaving of each school day. Four classrooms, mixed grades each: Pre-School/KDG, First/Second, Third/Fourth, Fifth/Sixth. Special education staff wear a large number of hats. Parents are involved. An active PTA.  A mixed diverse community, black, white, latino with the common thread being pride in their kids and their community. A winning formula that shows. The benefit meal was excellent: pulled pork with lots of sides. Excellent company at our table that made us feel welcome. Thank you to the community of  West Cape May Elementary.

Back at the View-Navion Group Rally the Saturday morning meet & greet and stroll was great.  Travelers and their rigs, mods galore: solar, AGM batteries, upgraded converters, cut out wooden sink covers, wooden stove top covers, and scan gauges caught my interest. I am pretty content with our interior layout (24P ~ bunk beds) all though Winnebago has discontinued this layout. Thirty rigs on site by someone’s  count. The pot luck feed tonight was excellent! The tongue in cheek call for nominations for President of the group was roundly ignored and I saw no one step up to pay the request for monetary dues either. All humor aside there was an informational shout out around Harvest Hills, a listing for RVers to stay at farms, ranches, wineries etc with the courtesy of 24 hour notice and a limit on length of stay. Trying to track down a web site but to no avail.

After spending enough time with these images while processing them I realized the red markings on the Great Egrets bill is in fact blood from a recent impaling-feeding rather than markings. Take a look, see if you agree.

Thank you for your critique and commentary.
