I had just had these parts replaced before we left by a company in Newport. I guess if you want to get things done right do them yourself.

Sorry to hear about that Crawford. I bet you will have a talk with these guys in Newport when you get back home.

I'm trying to find plastic pellets (cheap) that are the right size and weight for cornhole bag filling. I have a guy that may be able to get me some from Eastman, but he's not sure. He says it should work out about right. I hope so.

Us Beevins will get there Friday around 5 or 6

The Hutchinson's will arrive sometime around 2 pm on Friday (give or take a few hours)!!

Looking like a good turn out. I wonder who has site 14? If their not a member, lets see if we can get them to join.

Yeah we are excited about meeting you all. We are trying to get our aunt and uncle out there too they have a 26' jayco but it is in the shop getting a new water heater. I have no idea who is in site 14 but she just told me it was occupied already lol

Unfortunately, something has come up and I cannot make this trip so site 20 is open,I have already called Chong.Hope I can make a trip with this group this season.

Sorry to hear this Gregg. Was looking forward to meeting you and your family. Maybe some other time then?

We were looking forward to this trip as well

Just 1 more week until camping time! I think that Dave & Darlene, Richard & kids, and myself will be there Thursday.

I'll be there Thursday! I can't wait. I'm gonna pop up and down in the drive way one or two more times, just to make sure that it really works now. Just seems impossible that the lift system would ever "just work" again.

Well less than a week to go until camping with friends at Smoky Bear. I have done some cleaning and checked out to see if I have any leaks, all looks good. I have to reset the HWH bypass valve back and flush the pink out. Put on the clean sheets and I think I'll be ready to go.

Wish I could be there thursday.. but I have to work.. oh.. and I don't have a camper.

I will most likely be there early saturday morning.. I am thinking about 9am.. who will be around then?

Well I know that I will be there!

I think we have decided to come down on Thurs night/evening. Gonna call Chong this evening. I think we (us and Richard and his crew) have decided to go to Dollywood on Friday due to the crowds. We should be there on Saturday am to meet with Chuck.

See everyone then.

I'll be around then Chuck.

It looks like the Bivens family won't be making it to this trip, at least that's what Dianna told me on Facebook.

Yes Richard, unfortunately due to a comedy of scheduling errors, we are not going to make it. I want to see pics though.

So who made the error?

Alan, so sorry you aren't going to be able to make it to Smoky Bear. Maybe we can plan another trip sometime this spring or early summer.

OR...you guys can come on up to Natural Tunnel during August (when I'm camp hosting) and spend a few days before school starts again.

Donna, you can bring me one of those free tickets to Dollywood. Richard is buying is own season pass.

Tim, they aren't good until May through -June 15th.
