I would like to stay there again because the other camping spots get crowded early on, and this place did not start to fill up until Friday night. Also, this place allows RV's and campers. There are no hookups, but the other places aren't too happy about RV's and campers because of the generators and I think this is the only spot that allows them. Also, you can bring a propane stove. There are showers available and I believe that it is included in the price for camping. On the property there is a small cafe that sells breakfast and lunch which is very good. Dave had a great salmon and pesto omelet for breakfast. I'll keep an eye on the website for the fair and let yáll know when we can start making reservations. We didn't make ours until about May and we were fine.
Not so sure this may be the best spot for the crew that hopefully will be coming, allthough it did look like a very nice location. What time is quite time????

There isn't really a "quiet time" because people stay up late partying. Quiet time is ten p.m. but that is for generators. There were several groups playing music and drumming. There is also a sign that says No alcohol, no drugs, no dogs, but folks were having wine, beers, and there were dogs on leashes. I think it would be a good spot for us, especially if some of us arrived early and set up towards the back of the property.

You might want to plan a two day trip. There's lots to see plus it will be good to meet you.

We will definitely be there. I have a friend who wants to come and set up a boobie painting booth. We figure niether one of us have any artistic ability, but it sure could be fun tryin. No charge, just cum and get em done. Our motto would be " big or small we do em all".

Anyway we will have a great time, and me and the other J are really looking forward to this event. Roni, i do like your idea of the more revealing outfits this year. Remember we stayed at Hedo, so beware, all inhibitions are blown out the window. Well, sort of.
Come one, come all, the more peeps that can make it the better.

Back at ya! The site provides a good description of Quiet Camp except it takes about 35 minutes to walk to the fair, but its a nice walk.

Not that any of you guys would......

But Kathy and I are starting to get in shape for the Fair.

Six more months to lose weight, gain weight, increase tolerance for various substances, firm up those abs, work on getting over shyness, whatever self-improvement activities you may want or not want to engage in

I left tommygurl on the list on the first post - I mean, Nick's Dad and his future bride could decide just to live in sin by then

I have sent that to my codebreaker to see if she can figure out exactly what Jeff might be referring to

Our home can be a staging area for those who need one and are coming from the north or are flying in. Some can go early, others can go later, some can car-pool.
