Thank you so much for the in depth report. We can hardly wait to meet Gilligan, or is he on vacation as well?
As for the dinner and the pavilion, we also have a large canopy we will bring, it is 10x20 or so. I think that is 3 tables of 8 people. Maybe we can string them together for cover at least for the food.
See you Sunday.

Is everyone arriving on Sunday?

3 days and counting for our journey

We will be getting there on Sunday. As I will be working a 24 hour shift on Saturday that will end at 8:00am on Sunday, we will probably not be able to hit the road much before noon (CDT). With this part of Indiana being in EDT, we will loose and hour and with this being the Sunday of a busy holiday weekend weekend, I am planning loosing a bit of time sitting on the toll roads around Chicago, so we probably wont get there much before dinner time. I will have some info packets for everyone, so please plan on stopping by our site if I haven't found you first to grab yours. As the "Official Outback FRS Travel Channel" is 10 (sub-channel 0) I will be monitoring it while en route, just in case we come across another Outbacker!!

Sorry I have been MIA on here for awhile. It has been a busy and stressful year so far. I will be at the rally. I think Nonny and I will be arriving on Sun late afternoon/early evening. Jen and the dogs should be arriving Mon evening. I will be at Silver Lake camping over the 4th, then coming home, restocking, and heading to Indiana. Luckily it is less than an hour from my house. Count me in on poker. Also, Jen's parents lent us a 14x14 easy-up canopy. Feel free to use that on any of the potlucks!

I just got off the phone with Kris at Eby's Pines and we are more then welcome to use their pavilions in any way that we may need, at no charge. I told her that we like to use one for our potluck on Tuesday and maybe one on Monday for candy bar bingo. She said that this has been a very busy week at Eby's Pines. As it turns out, Keystone has reserved several camping sites and has been bringing units in and out all week, taking photos and videos of all of the new models for Keystone's promotional use. You know what they say about timing...one week later on Keystone's end or one week earlier on our end and we could have viewed all of Keystone's new units without having the leave the campgrounds, or even putting our adult beverages down.

As it looks like there has been no interest in the white elephant exchange, I think that (at least as of now) we will not be doing the exchange.

Be sure to stop by our site as I will have a information packet for everyone. I have set up activities for each day. Feel free to participate as much or as little as you would like. Keep in mind, this is your vacation as well and you should spend it as you would like. Their pool, game room and hiking trails will all be open for our use.

I can't believe that I still have to work two 24 hour shifts before we can head out. But, at least we plan to be out camping for the next 11 days after that

As far as I can remember from the list, we have only camped with Outbackmac and Mike.

Looking forward to adding the rest of you to the list.

I'm still waiting to hear back from Tim. At the very least I will hope to have an answer at the potluck on Tuesday.
