Aw, but the rain last year wasn't nearly as bad as the 10th gathering. :o

Luke, the kids, Bandit, and I will be there Friday afternoon this year. Hopefully we'll get a good spot near the playground and bonfire. Hopefully it doesn't rain this year either!! We'll be more prepared with more tarps/canopies and our Raindrop doesn't leak (thank goodness!)

Guess I better go register!! See you there!

I'm not going to make it this year. I am having surgery to replace the joint on my thumb on the 20th. I won't be able to manage the trip with only one functional hand. See you all at the IRG.

Not being at the 10th I can't say for sure but I keep hearing the word record rainfall with last years rain. Just a thought. Jerry

Jerry,
I wasn't at the 10th, but last year was record rainfall.
I think Gage is just trying to snooker everybody.
The stories I've heard... Yaa they had some rain at the 10th, but Gage scrambled like mad to get all those tarps up, because he hadn't skinned his tear yet... I know what that's all about. :lol:

Sorry you won't make it Pam....

Ken...same area as last year? I'm sort of behind in getting ready, I gave away the table support when I sold the Titan..gotta make a new one this Sat....haven't seen the Voyager in like 5 months...hope the roof in the storage garage didn't leak, but it should be totally entwined with spider webs.

Sorry that you are not able to make it, But look on the bright side we'll all see ya at the Redwoods.

Spider Webs :shock: Well at least all of the critters should be frozen for now until your td gets in warmer weather.
It's to bad the chili cook off is'nt the day that you will be arriveing, A little :roll: natural gas would surely kill all of them off or at least make them vacate the teardrop. Or park next to Kevin :lol:

We'll see ya all in a few days.
Ken & Jan
