Hey Bob, Did you get a new Camper?

Hey Bob, Did you get a new Camper?

Yes, Bob, do tell.  Any pics?

[Dee4j]

just an FYI: an accurate count will be needed for breakfast..

when I priced everything out for Bob I believe I came up with a total and we just divided it by the number of familes, that's how we came up with $5 per family...basically charging EXACTLY for what was spent. So anyone deciding not to go the morning of the potluck will make Me (since I'm doing the shopping) short on money.

I say keep the craft, that's one of Kara's favorite things, it's not manditory and they usually don't take that long.

Dinner Friday would work too..

 Hi,
  Yes it is true! If you can't tell by my siganture, Im a little excited!
 Here is the long version.
  Kevin (Jamesdad) and I, left Bakersfield on Sat. am. Drove down to Burbank where we were to meet the seller. We were a little early. AT 10 when the seller was suppose to be there; no show! So I called his cell#. No Answer! I got ahold of him about 20 minutes later. Now mind you, he lives in Yucaipa, He had started out at 8 am. but forgot to bring something with him and he was already an hour into his trek across the #10 fwy. So he went back! Now as he gets going again, he runs into the traffic of the pomona fair that open yesterday!
 He is now an hour late getting to us. We walk the trailer and finalize the transaction. We leave Burbank @ noon and head back to Bakersfield. Kevin brought his truck to tow it back and luckily Kevin had his weight distribution hitch and sway bars because our seller forgot the key to unlock the hitch from his truck which I am getting in the deal. Now the seller has to drive all the way from his house to Bakersfield this next Wed. and bring me the hitch and keys!

 So now our new addition is home sweet home. A few of the neighbors have come to see what new toy we have. I am going to be taking more pictures today and post later in seperate posting. Thank you for asking. It was worth the wait.

[Jamesdad]

YEAH BOB!! Its fun getting a new toy, isn't it? How many hours did you spend in it yersterday?? Or can I assume you camped out in the driveway...

What time exactly is breakfast going to be served?  I read a few posts ago that 8:30 may be an option, if so, we may be able to go to breakfast.

[BootheBunch]

8 or 8:30 am....we'll be there for breakfast!

 I am going to break tradition and go with 8:55 am on Saturday, the 20th of October, 2007! That's my final offer~

No potlucks?  Pancake breakfast and dinner out?  I don't know about all that.  Gotta have a potluck.  Camp cooking is my favorite part of camping.

Jim

I'll second that...........I don't go camping to run off to a restaurant :p  We go camping to enjoy campfire dinners & visiting with friends.

I'll go as long as there's a place to sit outside.  Won't know that until I get there.  Also, if a friend comes along does she count as family?  As I'm reading this, you're not counting actual bodies, it's family units.  Not a per-person charge.

Just to throw in my .02.  Bob, I don't care when you have the breakfast and neither does Kristi or Ashlee.  So we won't be giving you any flak about the time.  The one thing I do know is that we will be on that train on time due to the fact that we already paid for it.  If breakfast is late morning (Sometimes called brunch) as some people seem to want,  then we will just have a shorter time to eat, no biggie.  Let me know if you need help

Love you... Bob :p



Laura yes.. It's per family/campsite. so those with many gets kids a great deal and those who don't still get a good deal for a yummy breakfast.

The idea here wasn't to make a profit. It was just to get everything paid for. instead of per person and having to keep track of what everyone owes we did it this way to be easy.
Kevin won't be there to do my Math for me :p

 brunch
Pronunciation: 'br&nch
Function: noun
Etymology: breakfast + lunch
: a meal usually taken late in the morning that combines a late breakfast and an early lunch


late morning is not 8:55 am

What time do we have to leave to catch the train?

since everyone isn't cooking they won't have dishes etc. and if everyone cleans up their own mess and helps out we should be done and outta there pretty quickly...I've seen this group divour a plethera a food in 9.2 minutes  


hence the reason for the pancake breakfast instead of a pot luck

I'll be there early to help with cooking. I won't be going on the train ride as I'll probably have Taffy with me. Paula will be in NorCal for the weekend. I'm not planning on the train ride though as I'll have Taffy with me. Let me know if there's no potluck Saturday evening.Moose
