Come out and join us yourself. If your DH can t come, you can come with out him. We should have a good meal Saturday night.
tlhdocCamping season is over for us!!! Now we re waiting for the snow to fly! Actually we re spending this time looking at the " dark side" so we can figure out what to purchase for our next RV. Have fun camping!
tlhdocNot this weekend, but next weekend, final weekend for us. Halloween weekend for the kids.[:D]
Had a great time last weekend at the Wis. chapter GLPUC meet, met a great bunch of people from WI, IL, and IO. Hopefully, we ll get out more next year.[8D]
tlhdoctlhdoc,
Well we were but they closed the park down. Looks like next trip is to Gettysburg at Roundtop Camp Grounds the first weekend in Oct.[:)]. We are trying to stay out camping as long as we can. It is a long winter if you know what I mean.[:)]
tlhdoc10/3-10/6 we re going to be at Jamaica State Park in VT. We ll be heading for Stratton Mountain ffor the Brewfest and Lumberjack competitions. Hopefully, the leaves will still be changing! [:D]
tlhdocHi Kathy, The leaves should be pretty nice about then (probably not quite peak except maybe in the higher elevations!) around Stratton Mtn & Jamaica SP! They are no where near peak here in Central VT yet. They had a little more color about 50 miles north of here this past weekend. It will still be very beautiful, especially if the days are bright! Have fun!

Well Whitestar you could always join us at Hickory Run.
tlhdocWe re headed to Lake Kissimmee about 3.5 hours northwest of Miami can t wait to head out. Wish we were headed to Hickory Run though, Hickory Run was my favorite place to camp when we lived in Jersey. I only tent camped there and we re hoping to put together a trip with the popup for next August to visit friends and family in Elizabeth NJ and King of Prussia PA. Hickory Run will be one of our stops, both my DD s have seen pictures of the boulder field and are looking forward to see it in person. I miss that area I loved growing up there but FL. has it s good points too, like year round camping.[:)] Have a great time, hope the weathers good.
tlhdocThanks for the good wishes. The boulder field is really something different. Maybe we can put a trip together when you will be here.
tlhdocThanks we would enjoy that very much, waiting to see what s happening with the Eastern Rally hopefully we can do a couple, three week trip and show the DD s some more of the country. The furthest north they ve been since they were babies was a couple trips up to NC and Tn.
Happy Camping
tlhdocWas suppose to have headed out early yesterday (Wednesday) morning and returned about noon Friday. Then I found out I had to be in court Wednesday[&:]. Could have gone to court and still gone camping but then I got sick[:@][:@][:@]! Still made it to court but no camping. It s now Thursday evening and this the first time I ve felt half way alive for the last 4 days.
Oh, well. Maybe next week.
tlhdocI d love to, but it s just too far to go for a weekend. Besides, I ve been more or less camping for the last seven days, and plan on putting all that camping equipment back in the trailer this weekend!!!!! [8D]
tlhdocI m camping this week-end, too! But, like Cliff says, Hickory Run is just a little too far for a week-end.[;)] We are combining a visit to my sister s with a camping trip. Have fun!
tlhdocHi Tracy. We won t be able to make it to Hickory Run. We are just so busy right now and my brother is coming to town, so we need to finish cleaning up the basement. Have fun. Paula
tlhdocDoes camping in platform tents with 9 5th grade girls & a couple of other parents qualify??? I d rather be in my PU!! Especially as the weather is expected to be quite fall-like - low 60s in the day & 40s at night. I think I m gonna miss my furnace! Yep, looks like I ve gotten soft with my comfy home away from home!
Seriously I m just hoping the " whine" factor doesn t drive me crazy! I doubt many (if any) of these girls have camped in the fall. To top it off it s our first time camping in our GS troop. I m beginning to wonder just what I ve let myself in for!
Wish me luck!

tlhdocWish we were going. Didn t do as much camping as we would have liked. We had a very busy summer with family stuff. I also don t care to camp in the muggies and the weather wasn t that great. Although I didn t mind camping with some rain. It is either that or not go.
We just had to move our office home a couple of weeks ago.....some person living upstairs apparently left his water running in his sink and the ceiling fell on my desk. Not a ton of damage but it was a mess. So we got a u-haul and brought everything home in 2 days. My house is a mess....office stuff everywhere, but it sure is nice working from home.
We are talking about winterizing the camper before the snow flies and catches us off guard like last year. We had it open and had to wait to get a dry day to be able to close it for the winter. It got rained on, and snowed on. Sounds like our weekends are still full. It surely is a sad time....and so soon...seems like summer just started. :(
tlhdocPI you really need to come camp with us again.
tlhdoctlhdoc,
Tracy, you could always join us at Round Top, Gettysburg this weekend for the National Apple Festival weekend.
tlhdocI am camping at Wolfe s Campground near Lafayette Indiana this weekend. I am going to march in the Purdue alumni band. We camped there two weekends ago and had a nice time. Two weekends ago we stayed in the primitive sites which are right along the river only $14.50 per night. This time I got elect. It should be a fun weekend. Last weekend I went to camp Luther hills near Angola Indiana with a bunch of 7th and 8th grade confirmation students. The camp is a church camp associated with the ElCA Lutheran church. It s a nice camp. I had never been there. They have a nice family campground. If you belong to a Elca congregation you can camp there it s nice. Hickory Run is a nice place. My family used to camp there a lot when we lived in Bethlehem Pa. I think Columbus day weekend is the best weekend to camp in the Poconos.
