The last one we went to was in Hershey PA and we were not able to see everthing, but the one in Timonium is about 45 mins from use. The biggest building they have is called the Cow Palace and one can get lost if you don't pay attention. Every time my wife walks out of a camper she always heads back in the same direction she just came from, It's safe to say she is not good with direction. Maybe I will let her use the GPS this time.

We went to Greensboro also and thought it was not as well attended as in past years. The dealers were all there, just not the crowds, which made it easier to get around. We also plan to hit Richmond on Feb 14. What better way to spend Valentines Day than at an RV show in the state capital.

Well you can make it a special, just stop and have dinner and maybe pull out a little gift out of your pocket and in some of the RV's that on display they have some artificial flowers on the table just grab one. Well it's something different for Valentines Day, something she will remember for a long time.

We always go to the Timonium Show each year just to look around at all the new features and gadgets on the new RVs. We usually go to the Macaroni Grille off Padonia Road for lunch, then head over. Fridays are really nice since the crowds are down, less kids running under your feet. There's always a $1 off coupon you can print from the internet. Come on Spring!!!!!

Yes, it's a good one and if you go, most of the gadget and stuff are in the Cow Pallace Building which is one of three buildings that is being used for the RV show. When you enter the parking lot from York Rd the first building you come to on your right is the 4-H building, that is the smallest building, if you look a head and to your right you will see a larger building that is the Cow Pallace and just to the left next store and up the hill is the third building that is being used but I don't remember the name of it. We go every year and we are going this Saturday the 14th.

After we leave the show we are going to Carrabbas with some camping friends. My wife has been to the Macaroni Grill and she said it's a nice place to eat.

Checking back from the Rv show in MD.

Found prices not too be to bad, a $33,000 Rockwood 8314ss had a show price of $ 24,000, now this show were all Maryland Dealers. I was not to happy with the venders, not a enough stuff like it was last year to buy, but plenty of venders for campgrounds.

I don,t know about the 2009's but the 2010's Forestriver has added a weight restriction sticker on the rear of the camper for the bumper on the Rockwoods, The sticker states that the bumper is limit to 135 lbs with a 6"extension out, like a bike rack. Just thought I would pass that on.
