QuoteOkay, I got reservations for that weekend if no one minds me joining in. It will be just my son and I, we got site 258 for Friday through Sunday.  
   
 

 I m getting ready and excited too. I asked campingboaters (natacha) if she was coming, but they are camoing again at Spring Gulch I really need to go there, it is about 35 to 40 miles from home.
 I went to the store and bought hotdogs, blueberry pie filling (to be differnt) cool whip and small plates for the pies, sodas, 20 oz bottles of water, stuff to make tater salad and a pot of beans (for Raymond), stuff to keep it easy. The power chill is in the back of the truck plugged in (that way I do not have to carry it, all I have to do is unplug the electic and plug into the truck. Less is more this weekend
 
 Jeffrey needs to get the bikes out and put his in. Will load the wheely with the water battles that are frozen, eggs and other stuff tomorrow.
 I am trying desperately to come by doing a little at a time. I may set up but not pullout the ends until Raymond and Jeffrey come on Saturday if I feel like I feel now.  Raymond is really sick. he and Jeffrey may not come at all.

 copcarguyPaula, If you need a hand please don t hesitate to ask !
 We will be arriving early afternoon tomorrow !
 
 Best Regards,

 copcarguyAndy, we have had people with " friends"  with class A s camping with us before (Cliff s friend ACER), it is not so much what you have...
 
 Thanks Adam. I am doing a less is more weekend.  Both the camp kitchens are in the sheds (going to use the tailgate of the truck so I can lock everything up from the bears), have hotdogs and breakfast stuff.  Supper will be leftovers that I made last night, plate is in the fridge and will be moved to the igloo 5 day with the frozen water, eggs and carrots, everything else is loaded in the truck.
 
 The camper is still hitched up from Isabel where we moved it to the end of the drive. All I have to do is unplug the powerchill from the shed s electric, hook up the chains, and electric to the truck, put in the step, lock the doors and pull out. I hope to be outta here by noon. Raymond might follow tomorrow. Yes Adam, there is a Raymond, he has been sited before. He camps just slightly more than Lisa does. The Bantam makes setting up so much easier.

 copcarguyJust a helpful suggestion for anyone coming in from out of state be sure to load up on food being there are no stores within miles of this sp !  
 
 Now on a Good Note the weather forecast seems to have improve !
 
 
 Today: Areas of dense morning fog. Sun along with patchy clouds. High 69F. Winds SE at 5 to 10 mph.
 
 Tonight: Partly cloudy this evening. Scattered thunderstorms developing after midnight. Low 56F. Winds SE at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 40%.
 
 Tomorrow: Mostly cloudy skies early will become partly cloudy later in the day. High around 70F. Winds SSE at 10 to 20 mph.
 
 Tomorrow night: Isolated thunderstorms in the evening, overcast overnight with rain likely - a thundershower is possible. Low 54F. Winds S at 10 to 15 mph. Chance of rain 70%.
 
 Sunday: Chance of showers. Highs in the upper 50s and lows in the low 40s
 
 
 Cheers,
 Adam & my little guy Brandon !

 SheBantamThis weekend should be nothing after Assateague (Tracy & Beckie, remember how cold it was). I m hoping for another " no cooking"  trip - got through 5 days at Assateague without cooking a single meal [:D].  Kids will have to put up with sandwiches for lunch. Nice thing about older kids is you can say, " you don t like it, then cook yourself something). My 10yo loves to help make breakfast so we may wind up cooking breakfast (but I m packing some cereal and keeping my fingers crossed).
 
 Threw some extra blankets in today and I m sure the furnace will get a lot of use. I m hoping for a nice, relaxing weekend so rain won t bother me. Actually it s an excuse for not having to pack the bikes. Usually I m the last one out on Sunday (3pm), but we have to leave early Sunday for a soccer game. Why is it that Kelsey s games are always late Sunday UNLESS we re camping (then they re always away early games[:@]). My teens are coming under protest but at least we don t have to deal with the boyfriend this weekend [: (]. We re hoping for some quiet family time.
 
 Ok, see you all tonight. Can t wait to hear Rick s newest car saga[;)] (Rick, you have Chris asking lots of questions, esp after you sent the photo).

 SheBantamWe re leaving in about 20 mins...  See everyone there!!  Have a safe trip!
 
 DiW:  EVERYONE has been " asking lots of questions" ...  Long story, but God was lookin  out for us and we made out well automobillically as usual.  (I just invented that word) [:D]
