Ok folks here it is back by popular demand the 2nd annual fall get together. It will be 4 days Sept 18-21 2008 at Jellystone Park Camp Resort in North Hudson NY. www.paradisepines.com . We have negotiated a price of $30/nite and they have 40 sites saved for us directly in front of the pavilion. Anyone wanting to arrive early or stay later will enjoy the same rate. All sites have 30 or 50 amp and water and most sites have sewer. Gina, at Jellystone, is ready to take reservations 800-232-5349. After Aug 1st, no guarantee you will be camping with the group.
For this area I don't think we could get a better bargain that will accomodate all of us. We did a thorough check of the park and we think you will be pleased. It is about mid way between Lake George and Lake Placid and the high peaks area.

Does Joe have to wear a bear costume? If so, I want to warn Trapper Dick that Joe is NOT fair game. Count us in.

OOps sorry Anne you snuck in there with your post. I wouldn't let Joe wear anything brown in upstate New York in the fall. Hope all is well with your Mom. Heard you headed back south. Take care and drive safe. Dick

Sounds good to me...Lake George, my old Stompin' grounds of my misspent youth.
I wouldn't worry too much about events and things to do, we seemed to keep ourselves pretty much occupied with beer and campfires in North Conway LOL.
We can tour BobandDots new AF 1160 double slide that I'm sure they're going to get. And thrill to RhodeTrips latest adventure into the wild Canadian wilds. See what new piece of equipment Vermont Pat is towing behind the tow behind. Will Mike T bring the Palm Trees? Squirrels from WA State? Can't wait.

Hmmm, I wonder how big this thread will by by Sept of '08

Ted If this turns out half as good as Trappers I'll be ecstatic. Did you notice the Schroon River right alongside the campground?

We shall be heading south within the next 2 weeks to initially pick up our camper from our son Paul in Dallas TX and then carry on to Venice Fl. Unfortuneatly we could not participate in any of this summer or fall northeast activitites because of our summer european travel schedule. We certainly shall never loan our camper again because we could have used it the odd weekend here and there.
We certainly plan to attend the fall 2008 jamboree.
We look forward to say hello to old friends and make new ones.
