2nd Day Elkins WV-Cookoff competition.

From time to time  we come to a place , meet people and want to stay longer than planed-well this happened in Pegasus C.G near Elkins.

After meeting for the first time with the couple that run the place and some campers it was already obvious that this is going to be a special stay.

For tonight the owners planed the fifth cook-off competition in the C.G barn that included besides the competition music by some guests and four musicians including the C.G owners.

The barn was decorated and the table was loaded with dishes prepared and tagged by the campers.

The judges tasted each dish made notes and announced  the winners.

We, no ,actually Shula got the “THE BEST OF THE BEST OF THE BEST” for her delicious hot Cuscus that I thought will be too hot for the locals that are not used to have it so hot,but it seems that I was mistaken.

After everyone had seconds and thirds it was time for the entertainment,first came on stage a family from Holland and gave a nice performance,later we enjoyed listening to  the four musicians ,their professionalism and humor.

It is only a 40 miles trip but traveling the curvy step roads (some times 9% ) while it was raining all the way  sometimes  pulling aside to let trucks and cars pass that is reason  that is the reason that this short trip took me an hour and a half to get to our destination.

If you like a small family campground,with huge sites,grass,3 miles out of town in a country side and a friendly host that allows you to pick vegetables from his garden-this is the place for you http://pegasusfarmcampground.com/

As we entered the C.G we ere greeted by the host that made us feel welcomed ,he helped us to the site and introduced us to some of the campers around,it all looked like a nice group of people from all over the country including one from Holland.

After getting settled we were invited  together with others to what they call “Happy Hour”,everyone brought chairs drinks ,cheese and vegetables.

We sat around the campfire talking and sharing stories ,even  rain did not chase anyone away and suddenly it was almost midnight…it was just a great evening  and we all felt like we know each other for decades,this is surly one of our pleasures as we RV along.

Tomorrow everyone is cooking a dish and we all will share the food in the C.G shed, the best dish will be chosen by the big “JUDGE” the host himself all this in the pastoral atmosphere with music and laughs…can’t wait.
