Mardi Gras!

Betty Bernard, owner of Betty’s RV Park in Abbeville, Louisiana, sure knows how to throw a party! Here are pictures from the day of our Mardi Gras Ball, including decorating the hall and the dance party that followed.

The guys brought in “Woody” as the dance partner for ladies who wanted one.
