I picked up a maps with a few good rides . Friday we can get out for the day.

Always open to suggestions. Its our weekend not mine

[Skid]

So do I go to the Ohio camp-out of Myrtle Beach Fall Rally.

That's a tough question

[Jayceesfolly]

Now I have a problem....do I go to this campout or to one in Alleghany State Park in PA, on the same weekend?

 

Decisions, decisions!

Just a suggestion, but wouldn't it be a better to suggest aforementioned rides as you become aware of them, for "all" to attend, as soon as you know of them? Kind of puts a damper on those that wish to host rides.

Okay, the caves and a steam show has clinched it for me. I'm in. Save a spot for my tent! I will probably stay over on Sunday night and leave on Monday, so I can spend some time at the steam show on Sunday.

 

See y'all on Thursday afternoon!

 

Jim

[CaptainJoe]

Welcome aboard Jim!

[CaptainJoe]

Dave,

Spoke with Connie about 4pm. Office was closed but she answered some questions. Said you blocked off 105,107 and 108. She also said we need to go ahead and pay as the park is filling up quickly. She said you wanted 105. I will pay for 107 tomorrow morning arriving the 24th leaving 27th.

 

Jim,

if you want to split the cost of a site, I could get site 107 for the 24th thru the 28th. The corner lots are already reserved for the steam show.

 

Reservations are non refundable... I'm hoping these sites have electricity...

Edited August 18, 2015 by CaptainJoe

[dave_wells]

Its up to you .don't worry about making reservations.

I was told I can pay when we get there I have 3 sites we can all split what we use

In two weeks if not a lot of interest we can cut down to 2 sites

We may have 1 or 2 RV's

We will be there this weekend camping

I want to see the sites we have they say they are deep

 

I will call them in the morning

[CaptainJoe]

I'm going to chainsaw the four wheeler trails tomorrow morning. May run up there tomorrow afternoon for a look see and take some pics...(my way of getting out of work) Ooops! Did I just say that out loud?

[Jayceesfolly]

OK Joe, sounds good to me. Do you want me to send you a Paypal or check or pay when I get there?

 

Jim

[CaptainJoe]

A check's ok, when you get there. Suppose to be 90 today. I'm going to enjoy the ride up...

[CaptainJoe]

105 and 107 aren't very big, but would be perfect for an RV. I went ahead and put money down on 108 arriving 24th leaving 28th was $120 . It's the largest of the three.

110 and 108 would have been perfect but 110 is rented out Friday night 25th.

[Skid]

There is a good chance I will be there again this year!

[CaptainJoe]

Cool! we're getting the gang back together again!

[IronMike]

If I have off!

[Skid]

This thread went quite. Everyone still going?

[Jayceesfolly]

Yep! I will be there and am bringing a friend along that has done a lot of camping on his Vstrom. I plan on being there on Thursday afternoon.

 

 

Jim

[CaptainJoe]

I'll be there around 1 pm Thursday.

[Skid]

Who else can we expect to make it?

[CaptainJoe]

Don't know besides Dave and Robin.

Would be nice for YammerDan to drive up in the car and do some socializing...

[dave_wells]

Looks like myself and John He had the VTX Last year. we will be there sometime in the evening I figure around 6:00

John is bringing his RV so we will have fire wood and the large coffee pot and electric griddle

He is also in need of breaking in his new Cam am.

I am going to pick up some food during the week . I may cook something in the dutch oven again

 

Rock house has a picnic area with a few grills looks like a good place to have some dogs for lunch and see the cave
