With deepest sympathy

Exploring the Delights in Charlestown.......

The rally began on Wednesday with members gathering at the Rally Master’s site. After welcoming everyone those attending were treated to “Walking Tacos”.

Thursday began with an excellent breakfast of biscuits, sausage gravy, scrambled eggs, juice, and coffee. Yum!  Then we drove to the Huber Winery and Distillery for a tour and tasting. The 7th generation of Hubers are running the fruit farm and vineyard.  They have been in business since 1843  when Simon Huber began farming in southern Indiana.

Friday included a “Clue Party” at Culberson Mansion.  Hoosier Cruisers walked through the 20,000 sq. ft. mansion looking for clues to solve who the murder was, who the victim was and what was used as a weapon.  It was a challenge and great fun.   That evening we had a hot dog super with coney sauce, chips, cole slaw, and ice cream sundaes.

Saturday we toured Schmipff’s Confectionery.  It opened its doors in 1891 by Gustav Schmipff and has continued at the same location.  We got to see them make lemon drops using some machinery from the 1900’s.  The drops were delicious.   The day ended at Cluckers where we had chicken strips, French fries, salads, and pie. After the meal a business meeting was held.

The rally ended on Sunday with devotions by Melanie Boyer and singing lead by Dane Bailey. Great way to end the rally.
