We are very excited to be going! The week before we leave is always hard though, seems like forever, until your hooked up and on the road! We will be staying at the Holiday L Park in Virginia Beach! Our relatives from Indiana are going to meet us there. We have had our PU for alot of miles but they have never seen it open. We usually stop by to say hello on our way out west or on our way back!
We will also be getting together with some of our other relations who live in Virgina Beach. We don't get to see any of them too often so we are looking forward to this. We are so used to camping alone with just our family.
What about everyone else? Who gets to go out and play this week-end? The gas prices are high, the traffic will be awful but I am sure somebody will be out there! We will be looking for stickers!
Have a great week-end!
Well, welcome to our little corner of the state. I have to welcome you now, because I'll be in Cape Hatteras for the weekend!!! :D
Yep, towing my Motel room on wheels to Ocean Waves Campground for 3 days at the beach!
I'd love to be camping this weekend. memorial weekend is usually our biggest camping trip of the season. But, my daughter is getting married on Sunday so...... I guess I better be there. I kept telling her i wasn't going to show up cause I'd be camping. She almost started to believe me! HA HA
I will be camping at Natural Bridge State Resort Park in Kentucky this weekend. It is a lovely campground - a beautiful area. I am really looking forward to it.
Have a great and safe weekend!
We were going to try to head out... starting looking around fairly last minute. But all the SP are full for the weekend. Instead we are going to shoot for Monday or Tues, someplace close to home. That way I can camp with the kids and the DH can meet us at the campsite each night. Looking at Little Talbot Island SP or Anastasia SP. Another choce is a city park... Kathryn Abby Hanna Park.
Not camping, but going to do potluck dinner with the SCC at Malibu RV Park in ....... well Gidgit-land.

We are heading up to Lake Isabella RV Park in the southern Sierra Nevadas.
We'll be at Malibu RV Park, waiting for gsm x2 and G-Whiz to get there so we can get the blender revving!
Oh who am I kidding...they'll just have to catch up when they get there! :sombraro: :!
We'll be at a NYS park at Forth Lake for the weekend. Plenty of mountain biking, fishing, hiking and relaxing too.
Heading to Lake Glory at Knoebel's amusement park in Elysburg, PA with a couple other families. Can NOT wait!
We are going. We've got a couple new things to check out this time. ;)
We'll be camping with family and friends up north at our place. It's s'posed to be cold and rainy and dismal, but we're going anyway. Our friends with the 1999 Jayco camper that they just got for $1200 will be on their maiden voyage with it, and we'll have all kinds of fun showing them the tricks and giving them the tips. We've also invited DSister and her DH, who aren't really camping types, and that should be a hoot when she asks where the restroom is and we have to send her to the outhouse. No, maybe I'll be nice enough to let her use the little Sportsman's Guide potty tent and the little portapotty in it. Lil Spanky is all excited about camping, and our friends have 2 boxers that will be coming, too. There will be a PowWow taking place not too far away, and we're planning on spending some time there. The biggest drawback is that I've started sorting out the winter clothing from the summer stuff, and was aware that on Memorial Day weekend in MI we would still need some sweats, but wasn't counting on having to get out so many winter clothes for this trip.

Yep, we're campin'! Heading down South (30 miles) to Quechee (VT) State Park to meet and camp with BIL & SIL. Supposed to get down into the 30's on Saturday night! Don'tcha just love Norther New England! If it ain't the Black Flies sucking out all your blood, it's snowing on Memorial weekend!
Oh well, better than NOT camping!
Yes! We are camping this weekend.
Actually, headed out tonight!! There is the best cg one hour from here right on the lake and there are only a handful of sites that can be reserved. Naturally I did not reserve mine in January so they are gone and the rest are first come, first serve. So I figured if I head out after work today, I should be able to pick out a good spot for the next five nights!!! :-() We'll see...
The family & I are heading out Friday to camp in Indiana for the holiday weekend, we can't wait :!
We are off this weekend to Bandy Creek in Tennessee. Great campground. Then it's back here until 6/12 when we go to Blackwater Falls and Watoga CGs in WV for 8 days. Can't wait. Lots of hiking to do.

Just curious, where abouts?
We'll be camping on the west slope of the Sierras in the El Dorado National Forest on Union Valley Reservoir. Reservations were made last fall! :rolleyes:
This is our 3rd year in a row to the same area - I've attached a picture:
Nancy,
To Whitewater Memorial State Park :)
will be up at our site at harmony ridge,branchville nj, for the long weekend, leaving tomorrow after work!
We are going to camp near Casa De Fruta,which is close to San Jose,Ca,where we plan to attend the Red Road Pow Wow.Several Native American nations will be "represented" at the event,and we are really looking forward to experiencing this multi-cultural gathering.Just think-Right here and now, we have the opportunity to experience some of the richness,and diversity of human and Devine creation.Wow !
We wish you all a very safe,and fun filled,weekend.
We are going camping too. We will be camping with DiW and HersheyGirl at a RB Winter State Park, PA. I may have to work until 10PM Friday night :yikes:. I wanted to take Friday off, but I couldn't. :mad:

We might be going to Knoebels over the weekend. If you see anyone wearing a COTOC or PUT tee shirt stop and tell us hello. :) Adam is going on Saturday.
I think we will be heading down to Murtle Beach SC on Monday, following the Memorial Day weekend. My wife is going to have thyroid surgery on Thursday, and would like to camp at Pirates Cove or Pirates Landing (?) in Murtle Beach SC. before she goes through this.
We can't leave as early as we would like on Friday so we have decided to leave about 4:00AM on Saturday morning. It is just not worth fighting the traffic from northern Virginia to Virginia Beach on Friday evening.
I appreciated the discussion in another thread about alternative routes but sitting in traffic just is no fun. Just the adrenalin that gets pumping once we are hooked up and on the way! A good cup of coffee will keep me going even if it is still dark!
Sounds like there is going to be some heavy relaxing this week-end!!!! We want to hear all about these trips when you come back. Who said there is nothing to talk about on this board! What a selection of CG's and places to go!!!!! It all sounds wonderful!

If you have time you should visit the town of Cass just north of Marlington and Wagtoa. Here is a link to the park. Cass Scenic Railroad State Park (http://www.cassrailroad.com/) It is worth the short trip even if you don't ride the train just to see them depart and arive and visit the gift shop. Anyone who likes trains would love this state park. I highly recommend it

To Whitewater Memorial State Park :)
What a coincidence, Corey!! That's where I'm going to be!
Can't wait to sit around the campfire with some old camping friends (ForestCreature, Cyclone and BearBait) and some new ones (PopupSgt, Don and SkipP). We have families from 8 different states meeting in one place to enjoy each other's company and our favorite activity ~ PU Camping!
... and may we all remember the true meaning of this weekend. :usflag:

Indeed! Camping near a town named Liberty, how can one forget the meaning? I'm looking forward to putting faces with the names of friends made here...... camping with them will be a bonus!
Camping, friends, food.
Cool.

And once again I will not get to meet you. :(
We will be at Pt. Lookout SP in southern Md. and will be camping with LovetheLord. I cant wait. Hope the crabs are in and the fish are biting.
Sandy and the gang
Headed out Friday for Benbow SP in the coastal redwoods of northern California. All packed - just have to get off work, hook up, and GO :-()
We made the trip to Cape Hatteras yesterday afternoon, got off of work at 1pm, and headed straight home to hook-up and get the last items aboard, we were on the road by 2pm, and at the campground by 4:45pm...
I'm currently sitting here at the picnic table, online with my cell phone, watching Fireworks over the beach (seem to be coming from the vicinity of the KOA Beach - I'm maybe another quarter of mile down the road from there, but have a great view of the Fireworks!!!
