Newport Dunes Rally Presidents Weekend 2009

But, Daaave
If it rains, whose TV am I going to watch if you're not there?
Now, if it was just Lori having too much work to do, I'd dare you to come out just with Griffy, just like I always do, but I can see being so close to home and out in the rain being a drag.
I've already given the pep talk to my boys- so, what are we going to do if we're camping and it rains the entire time?  Play games and find someone with a TV was the answer I got.

Hope to see you there, even if it's just a visit.

We may be canceling - Lori has too much work and it's going to raining be Friday through Sunday. I will let everyone know tomorrow.

When has rain stopped us from camping.....?  Besides if everyone cancels will we still get our group rate......Stop it you guys.......come out and play in the rain...
ya all will be missed for sure......

[cjpoppin]

Another thought when I did a search on the weather it just says "Showers,not rain"  and with all the EZ ups there will be a place to sit and visit......Pack the rain gear and come out and play with the rest of us nuts...or should I say Ducks!

[Chez Way]

Rich and Kelly,

Just got off the phone with Newport Dunes and Nick won't be in until after 11--all group reservations, etc. must go through him.  I'll keep you posted...
 
Alright the rest of you ScCampers--enough of this fear of rain!  We're going camping!

There's a chance that this system may miss us.............it'll be cool and cloudy but we may get very little (if any) rain.

I'm seeing a glimmer of hope as we are squeezed between 2 different systems. The low pressure to the north may not make it this far south due to another system south of us. The system south of us is fizzling rapidly. That was going to be the rain maker if that low (north of us) got far enough south. However, the system south of us may end up blocking that low from coming farther south...........pray about it......that's worked for me in the past..

Its a little rain.  Unless it rains for four days, it will still be fun.  You know it will clear up, and we will have at least one or two good days.  Just think how clear it will be, and all the great floaties in the back bay!!

YES Jeanne!
Ditto to what Wayne said. You have been such a big help and have really made us feel welcome.
I think we will really laugh at the rain and bring our kayak. I may even take my beautiful wife of almost 30 years on a romantic evening paddle of the bay. I am going to hope and pray we have sunny days.
So is it ok if we bring Muffins for the morning & Macaronni Salad for Dinner on saturday night?
one more question. Are we staying until monday?

See you soon!

Some of us "Less fortunate" souls have to....ah.....errrr.....emmmm....WORK on Monday..

We are paying for Monday because if we don't, we have to leave by noon on Sunday :mad: . We will probably stay until about 8:PM Sunday, then hitch up and mosey on home...
