Well we finally made plans for Memorial weekend and are heading to Malibu RV Park with the Darksiders.  There are still spots available if anyone wants to join us.  Over that weekend they are having "Topanga Days" in Topanga Canyon which is close by.  We plan to check out the activities there as well as the beach of course.

Jeanne, what dates will you be there?  And in what section are you and Wes and Karen in?  Dave saw this post and got all revved up to go camping.  I want to call this morning and see if we can join you.
 
 C'mon Dee!!!  Even without a campfire, it'll still be fun!   :D

Any chance we could join you for dinner on Friday or Saturday?  Scott has to work so we won't be camping, but after work it is only a 40 minute drive for us!  Let us know if you have a plan.  Of course, I'll bring the shrimp as well as other goodies!

I just called and reserved a site (W/E) down in the area where we pop ups have stayed before.  It's about $75.00 per night, based on 2 adults.  Additional adults are about $5.00 per person.  Kids under 6 are free.  There are only 1 or 2 of these sites left.  
 
 Jeanne, I left a message for you on your home machine, but just in case you see this first--when I asked to be near you, they told me they only had one site based on a travel trailer for you and that it was full hook ups at $111.00 per night--not for all three nights.  You've only paid for your first night, which is how they reserve the sites--you pay the remaining balance upon arrival.  The woman I spoke to didn't show anything for Wes and Karen.  Her name is Penny and I told her I would let you know so you can call her.
 
 Dee, there are only a couple of sites left that would accomodate your 26 footer, so if you want to join us, you'd better call asap.  
 
 Let me know if you guys decide to forego this trip.  Cancellations have to be made at least 72 hours in advance in order to get a full refund.

Lori!  Thanks for spelling things out for me.  I handled the reservation via the internet and never spoke to anyone so I guess I was pretty clueless about the cost (it sure sounded like a great deal!).   I've moved to w/e ocean view and according to Penny it is a better spot than before and now we are going to be closer to you and Karen and Wes (we're in the V section, Lori's in the C section and Karen and Wes are in the motor home section 45-51).  
 
Lori, Penny said that she didn't get your phone number so she asked that you give her a call with that info.
 
Scott and Georgeanne--it would be great if you can make it too.
 
We are stilling raring to go, it just looks like this weekend is a little bit more costly than originally planned!  We have other day visitors coming...my sister, my brother, and Karen and Wes' friends.  According to Penny, day visitors will have to park on PCH.
 
We're looking forward to the big birthday celebration too!
 
 
 
So Dee, time to make your call!

Thanks Jeanne!  I called Penny and gave her my phone number.  She's very nice.  I'm glad that you got your reservation straightened out! :)

I don't know how I missed your post, G!  Of course you can come on down for dinner!!   We just wish you and Scott could stay and camp, but even seeing you if only for a visit is better than not seeing you at all!!! :)

PS I split this thread into its own so that we could keep track of the rally posts.

well we are for sure not camping..but don't be surprised if we show up for the day..won't know that for sure until it gets closer..

Well, I hardly ever post anymore so missing one would be easy! ;)  I've had a change of plans myself for the Memorial Day weekend.  I'll be in Michigan.  I'm leaving on the 25th and won't be back until June 11th.  Scott is working, but you never know, he may show up.  I'll tell him to bring the shrimp if he does. :D

Wow Karen!  That sounds yummy!!  I'm a little confused tho--Is that just for your families or is that for the potluck for all of us?  I just want to make sure I don't misunderstand your post. :)
 
I am in Washington DC today through Wednesday.  Believe it or not, I'll be having a press conference with the president!  I keep pinching myself because it's still so surreal!!  Sadly, Dave and Griffin couldn't come with me, so I'll be glad to get home Wednesday and go camping with my family and friends this weekend!

Lori!  I just told Jim that you are having a press conference with the president and he said "president of what?"  I'm sure you'll have a story to tell this weekend.
 
As far as the potluck is concerned, let us know when it works for you.  We just planned out our menus together and need to figure the count so we can plan our shopping.  Let us know what meals you are interested in and what you want to contribute.  I saw your DO breakfast roll recipe in the recipe forum...sounds yummy.
 
So here's the plan...
 
Friday night---late dinner/casual bring your own hot dogs/burgers
 
Saturday a.m. breakfast--- DO breakfast corn bread/eggs (Jeanne)
 
 
Saturday p.m. dinner-- Tri-Tip  (Jeanne and Karen)
                                Caprese Salad and potatoes (Jeanne)
                                Grilled veggies (Karen)
 
Sunday a.m.-- Pancakes (Karen)
 
 
Sunday p.m-- BBQ chicken (Jeanne and Karen)
                   Corn on the cob (Jeanne)
                   Artichokes (Karen)
 
Monday-- (Dave's b'day) Chorizo and eggs burritos (Karen)
 
Karen and I are both expecting guests this weekend so we are planning on bringing some extras.
 
Also, anyone else out there planning on joining us please pipe up now!  We're looking forward to a fun weekend.
