The basis of this latest road trip is focussed around our attending a Tiffin motor home rally in Tucson, Arizona.

What is a Tiffin rally! Well, Tiffin is the manufacturer of our motor home. It is a family run business based in Red Bay, Alabama which started back in 1972. Part of the lifestyle for motor homers, is the people and the camaraderie of those whom you meet along the way. And, way back when, the Tiffin team decided to organize an event, invite Tiffin motor home owners to come together, learn something through attending seminars, make new friends through social events and offer owners the opportunity to spend time with like-minded folks.

The idea took off and today, the Tiffin team organize three rallies each year, one out west (aka this one in Tucson), one in the centre and one in the east of the US. Each rally accommodates 300 Tiffin motor homes and the event runs from Monday to Friday. Here’s an amazing fact, this rally sold out in 2.5 minutes! Imagine that! Three hundred motor home owners signed up the minute the rally website went live and in under three minutes it was sold out!

After dinner tonight, we were entertained by an English Father and Son duo, Terry & Nick Davies – pictured, whose stage name is the Piano Men Generations, and who performed a medley of songs by Elton John and Billy Joel. They were absolutely fantastic, and the Dad, Terry, doubles as a comedian!
