Indian Hill Ranch Sept 9th-11th

Is it EVER going to be the 9th ?

[BootheBunch]

Yes AND you guys got out earlier than us.  I'm moving to YOUR school!!!!:p  Yes, we get more time off during the year (modified year round) BUT there is something unnatural about starting school in August!!!!

Don't feel too bad...we started last Wednesday!  And, we don't get out until mid-June.  We are traditional, but, we have a couple of 4-5 day weekends in the year (a 4-day the weekend of Vail Lake!) ...plus a week at Thanksgiving. With this hot weather, we'd be trying to keep cool inside the house or mall anyway...so I figure with school in session...free air-conditioning!  :p

But, I have to do PE tomorrow, at 1:30 in the afternoon....I am so dreading that!!!  If it is as hot as it is today, I might just do Four Corners in the classroom or something!

We started the same day you did it sounds like and we also don't get out until June 15th.  I DO like having those extra days during the year...I'm just whiny because it's HOT and summer went TOO fast!!  
 
 You have to teach your own PE?  We have 120 min. per week prep time.  BUT we don't have music and THAT is a crime!

Okay guys - we just picked up our new (to us) 2005 V8 Dodge Durango!  Now pulling our new toy will be a snap and we shouldn't be delayed in arriving at all on the 9th.  IT'S TAKING FOREVER!!!!!   Waaaa:%  Will it ever get here?

WOW !! You guys are going all out!! When do you pick up the Boat, Quads, and Snowmobiles? Congrats on the new Durango. What color? Is it a Hemi?  Will Dan let you drive it?

Ok everybody, Kristi and just met one of our neighbor's last weekend, and in talking to them found out the have a Hybrid. So we mentioned this campout and they were excited about going. I figured if Bob is in Site 8, so they can be close to the bathrooms, maybe our new friends can share site 4 with Dan and Kristi? They own a sports bar here in Lancaster so they definetly qualify for the Squad. Let me know your thoughts.

sounds cool or I can share site 4 ( as long as we both can run the A/C)and they can have my spot...that may work out better with the kids....I don't care as long as I have beer and a fire I'm happy

[TheViking]

Site 4 has two 30 amp plugs on different circuits so that won't be a problem.  It really doesn't matter how it works out to me either.  We'll just wing it.

We are FLEXIBLE!!!!!  I agree w/Dee - as long as I have a/c and beer, I can do anything!!!  Now...having said that, Dee, if you don't mind bunking w/us, you have a point about the kiddos.

We sold the boat (hey, you can only pull one thing and I can't drink beer and drive in my boat - but I can sit in my trailer!:D)  Matthew is begging for quads - he'll just have to keep on dreaming.  
 
 The Durango - has only the Magnum, not the Hemi - which we could go either way with considering the price of gas:yikes:.  It's white and yes, I got to drive it home yesterday! That's actually one of our reasons to get it - I don't like driving Dan's truck and now we can switch cars more easily since it is automatic and has power everything.

Well congrats on your whole new set up.  You will be finding the whole camping experience different now.  For the better of course.  We look forward to seeing it.

His brother is still stuck here...He's hoping he can leave by Tues...we finally heard from his mom and relatives. they are safe in La place, but their cousin's house in Lakeside is completely under water (and she just renovated the whole thing  :% )  Dan's Mom's house not sure but maybe up to the second floor along with brothers apt..at least they aren't in the path of the water flow from the levy break..

We're glad everyone's safe.  Seeing it on TV...it's just surreal.  We'll keep them and all affected in our prayers.
