Howdy!
Hey, Louise & I are going to the SPAMBOREE this weekend. Who else is going? I'm not sure if it's sold out yet or not, but I am sure it will be fun! Last year we made a cardboard trailer & took it. This year, we have a "real one". :) Here's my photos from last year.

I'm going! I've heard from a few others that are going as well.

I'm going to try and get there early on Friday so I can get a spot big enough for two trailers and a friend that is camping in a tent. I'll have my easyup and all the other crap I can stuff into the car and trailer so if someone wants to share a spot with us, let me know.

Nick.

I plan on going to check things out. Do I need to register or anything? OK to show up and look around right?

I want a SPAM t-shirt! :lol:

Wow! Who would have thought. I used to live within a half a mile of there. I lived on Wohlford Street in Oceanside, very close to there.

I have moved inland now, with a lot less people around me!

Have fun this weekend!
