Awesome. We already have our cabin.
 
I am soooo hoping j can make it and stay at least 1 night this time.
 
Tony, not sure if you booked a site yet, but I have #51 reserved. If you can get 49 that would be great. 50 is already booked. I feel sorry for site 50.
 
Andy, if you will remind me the week before, I'll bring a load of scrap chunk firewood (fireplace rejects - got plenty).

Odaon - "Wish I didn't live so far away! Sounds like a great time." Good mule and a bag of grub, you could make it in time if you leave soon.
 
Sounds good Carl. Will do.

One of these years!
 
Scotcha, you're gonna need a boat and a mule.........and leave a couple of yesterdays ago!

What part of the "Island" you live on?
 
Just a bump, getting here fast. Now if we can just get this Kansas City ICCE Show out of the way.......
 
Hey Crex, any idea what the March dates will be? I'm trying to figure out a way to make it in October, but it's going to be hard. But before my March schedule fills up, if any dates are known, then I can for sure make plans.

Thanks!
 
If I still lived in NC, I would attend. This looks like such a cool event and I always love seeing the pictures. I hope you guys and gals have a blast and I look forward to hearing all about the event afterwards!
 
SA Con - The Spring date hasn't been set yet. It's up to the Owner/Managers of the campground. I will try to get a date set at this fall event. Normally it is the last weekend in March, but there is always a chance they may want a different date/weekend. Keep your eyes/ears open and I will post the spring date soon as I can.

NCR - Thanks - wouldn't mind having one in Phoenix some winter but it's a heck of a long way to pack and anvil. Been there a few times, not so bad if you know you get to leave (kidding of course). Always enjoyed my visits there. Ought to try and get Phillip or one of his buddies that mostly just stand around critiquing everyone else, to do a video.
