Camping Swanking - June 28 - July 3 - Page 87

Not to complicate things further, but ....

I don't really feel zlicklike being a boring, tired old Fudz .... so ....

If there's space for me .... I'd like to rejoin the camping trip.

Um, keeping the fifth space would be my recommendation. The bear box and parking spaces are primo attributes that are worth paying for, even if no one sleeps on those sites.

My passenger dropped out so .... as far as I can tell, I'd be driving up alone in a large vehicle.

Oh yeah, and my meal teammates all dropped out, too. So, er, feel free to throw me on some other team (of people who can, ya know, cook - - lest folks go hungry when it's our turn to feed them).

Sorry for the hemming and the hawwing. I was just adventured out for a bit and seguewaying directly into camping prep got me a little freaked out. My apologies.

Good points - overflow food and parking, and it might make a good open gathering spot for evening campfires! However, I think it's safe to say that we can drop Monday and Thursday evenings still, because it came down to only 2 or 3 folks being available those nights anyway.

Welcome back to the club, by the way.

Just check with the two 3-person teams and see which one could use your help the most.

K&T will be going up at a different time than S&I, so we will need both cars.

I agree - let's keep the fifth spot.

And ALEX: please reconsider. I know I am counted among the many who would love to have you there.

yeah, Im not looking to get any of the up front funds back.

yeah to the 2nd part too. the more the merrier.
also, if theres anyone who feels like its too late, please consider/re-consider going anyway. I have the feeling this will be low key and seriously relaxing.

I'd go just for the natural 'pine fresh scent' and lack of...well, pretty much everything else in the world.

*highfive* welcome back to da partay

I can see the logic to keeping the extra site (yeah, bear box!)

If we keep the "open" space in the middle, we can set it up as a sort of communal living and gathering space. I might even offer up the 10'x10' sun shelter to the cause.

OK, it makes total sense to keep the 5th site, but I'm going to cancel Thursday and Tuesday for all sites - unless I hear any objections before I find time to make the call.

As for meal teams................?????

innerSpaceman · 06-20-2007, 05:02 PM

My only concern about cancelling Tuesday is the time pressure to bug out on Monday.

Remember, no one was ever going to actually spend Tuesday night there. The pittance in the price for one more night of the 5 sites was to guarantee anyone staying Monday night the pleasure of striking camp and bugging out at a leisurely pace.

To me, that's worth the money. I hate having to get up, strike camp and go in a big hurry. (ahem, Noon is a BIG HURRY)

At $16/site for 5 sites though, it may be worth partially packing up the night before... those who are still around monday
