Campland Nov. 11-13 2005

[Chez Way]

Jeanne: my friend text messaged me this morning and said release the site..they don't have the trailer yet but maybe you can have them put a a notation not to fill it unless absolutely necessary that we may have someone booking it. don't know if they will but is worth a shot.
 
 
We will be leaving Thurs about noonish...

Dee,
I spoke to Lori at Campland.  She said that once we cancel H-16 we cannot get it back at the reduced rate.  She is holding it until Tuesday for us...so if your friend or anyone else out there wants it let me know by Tuesday, November 1.

Thanks Jeanne I will call my friend and let her know. if we kept it what would be the cancelation fee after Nov. 1??

What is the situation with campfires?  Do I need to bring my firepit or are there rings there?  How are we fixed for tables?  Should I bring my 6' folding table?  The reason for all the questions is that since I will be going stag to this rally, the less I have to drag along with me the better.  But, if we need this stuff I will bring it.  I have a few bundles of wood I can bring if we can have fires.  And lastly, what's up with a potluck?  Yes....No?

Go ahead and bring your bundles of wood--I'm sure Dee will find an appropriate use for it.

Casserole--Azusateach's friend
Greenbean casserole--Darksiders
Tri-tip and b'day cake--Chez Way
 
I may have missed a post--let me know.

Ugh!  I am in internal conflict.

Dave has a mediation in Pasadena on Thursday at 2 pm.  My guess is that he won't be home before at least 6pm, so we were going to come down Friday.  Here's the problem: we want to go to Sea World while we're down there since Griffin is excited about seeing the dolphins, sharks, and Shamu.  But if we arrive Friday, we'll spend most of Saturday at Sea World and won't get to hang with you guys as much.  If we could come down on Thursday, we could go to Sea world on Friday and then have all day Saturday to embarrass celebrate with Dee for her birthday. Interestingly, Dave casually mentioned that I could possibly drive the camper down Thursday and he could join us after his mediation.....not sure if that was just thinking out loud on his part or if he was serious.
 
I've towed the camper before and I can back it up, so I could definitely do this.  Mom's up for it and I'm seriously thinking about it......I guess it's my turn to be thinking out loud.....

[Azusateach]

What's to think about?  Of course you can do it by yourself!!! It just takes a bit longer, but think of the pounds you'll work off working up a good sweat doing it all alone!  That's what I tell myself every time I go out.  And what a sense of accomplishment you'll feel!  (How's that for a pep talk?)  If I weren't doing parent conferences until Thurs. afternoon I'd join you & we could help each other.  Remember, Dee's going to be there, and isn't the Viking also?  Heck, you'll have plenty of help!  Go for it!

Go for it Lori!  We are 99% going to show up Thurs. now and Dan will just commute to Temecula on Friday if need be.  He can help too.  (And maybe I'll learn from watching!)

ummm..Do I need to slap you??? :rolleyes:  hook- up the trailer drive it down and I'll back it in for ya if you need me too.

That will get you in practice for the ALL GIRLS weekend  

the kids have min. day and out at noon, that is my goal for leaving. if you want we can caravan...aak I guess I should call Campland and get a spot for Thurs.
Jeanne I'm taking your site for the nite???

everyone who plans on sitting by the fire please bring firewood. it gets Dark & cold earlier so the fire will be burning longer. I'm not having it delivered to my house it's going to sit to long.

DK&3kids I don't know if this is close to you but we got the wood for Temecula off of Scott rd. they sell it by the wheelbarrow It harder wood so it doesn't burn up so quick.




So who is coming up on Thurs?

Dee,  Make yourself comfortable in our site Thursday night.  We plan to head down to Campland Friday morning.  If you aren't out of our site when we get there we'll just hang out at your supersite and do a load of laundry while we're hanging out in the jacuzzi.  Jeeze, I wonder if they have a plasma tv in the supersite yet?

[griffsmom]

Okay, I'm in.  Thanks for the offer of backing it up, Dee, but I should be fine.  I actually like backing up the trailer!  :screwy: Not to brag or anything, (well, okay, maybe just a little), but after Temecula, I took the trailer back to storage by myself, and backed it up into the parking spot (that's a regular, car-sized parking spot, mind you) between two parked class Cs.  Alone.  The first time.  

Of course, now that I've shared that, I'll probably smack some fence or post or whatever while backing it up at Campland! :rolleyes:
