Camp ADK Spring TearUp 2008

[Amish Classic]

Hello folks,

Well a few here asked for an update on my skin cancer surgery. The doctor says he got it all,but a blood test is needed in a few weeks to comfirm. You realy don't know how a spot on you back can keep your arm from moving much,Ouch! Having trouble sleeping because everywhere I move it hurts,or the stitches pull or rub. Thank God it's on my left ,and I am right handed. Hey, at least I got a paid vacation out of it.

Everyone have fun,hope the weather is great. Gonna miss a fun event. Take plenty of pictures ,please.

Bill, great news.

Hopefully the recovery will take its natural course and you'll be back to 100% soon.

Just a reminder to everyone-Sat June 14 is Flag Day, so if you can, please bring along your American Flag and display it at your campsite!

Proper etiquette would dictate that you fly it alongside with an American flag. I believe Canadian flag day is Feb. 15

[Kurt (Indiana)]

Or do as Dave does; fly it just below the US flag. (when in the US)

Nothing wrong with being proud of your flag.

I know I'm not camping in February in Canada, so this will have to do.

Dennis, I can do two of the three. Congrats on the "Great- Grandfather" honor.

Last year at FCP, I could only do one. It will be a long time before most of us can fill your position. "GGF" rules

Yupp.. not Sleepless, but Stuckish in Seattle. With all the tornatoes and freaky weather in the Chicago area, Kate and I are stuck here
in Seattle... hoping and praying we can get back home via Chicago to head to the TearUp early. They offered to fly us from Seattle to Miami,
then Miami to Toronto, Toronto to Ottawa... passed on that one ! LOL

For fun, here are a few photos from our pre-TearUp Alaskan cruise...

Kate lost in the rain forest about 100ft above sea level in Ketchikan Alaska



Visiting the Mendelhall Glacier outside of Juneau...



Hot Tubbing on the high seas...



Kate assisted building a Champage Tower...



On a more relevant note... Trailer and RV transportation by barge... glad we didn't bring the tear or Airstream camping in Alaska!
In a storm that small boat and the 5th wheel are the first to go!



So if all goes well, we hope to arrive at Fish Creek later on Wed.. just in time to enjoy the 29C heat wave!

PS. Weather forecast for the TearUp looks excellent! Mainly sunny or cloudy with warm temps!

[Kurt (Indiana)]

Dave, the storms here indiana have caused lots of damage.
I watched the build up to the tornado on Friday night and it was scary for sure .
Hopefully the weather at fcp will be OK.

Heading out tomorrow morning. Going to stop at Watkins Glenn for two nights. FCP is six or seven hours from there. Have everything loaded and are we heavy why do we bring so much. Seem like we have been loading stuff in for days. Ken+Pat

Probably that ham making it heavy

[campadk]

Just a suggestion for all TearUp campers... bring a LOT of CASH for GAS!

We are now paying the equivalant of $5.07 a gallon here in Ontario ourselves!

Glad we only have to tow our trailer 15 minutes to the campground. Filling up the boat will be the killer...

We should be arriving at FCP mid afternoon tommorrow (Wednesday)
