Packing today, driving up with sis tomorrow. She is excited about this trip like a kid before Xmas! Me, I'm looking forward to seeing old friends and catching up. Big changes with us this year that might end up with us becoming "official" TOW members... See you all at the lake. Oh, Brian, the coldest night I ever spent in my tear was East of the Cascades!

We are planning a birding hike Saturday am, 8:30. Meet in the center circle. This will not be strenuous, just fun. We are in site 31 if you have any questions. Monstro the wooden purple whale. :shock:

:applause: Thank you to everyone who came and made this a success! IT WAS AWESOME! We ended up with 79 trailers! Woohoo! :applause:

Side note - if anyone picked up the red chair that was by the big pile of wood and had a knitted bag in the seat, please mail the bag to me at 676 W Lennox, Yreka, CA 96097. Little Man misses his bag :(

Here are a few pics, mostly of the potlucks because that's when one can photo the most people at once. I think that Lydia will be posting a group picture a little later and maybe we'll hear from Cathy and Leo with a picture of the Saturday night musicians, if those photos turned out okay.

We got back late today after an overnighter across the way at Lakeshore East CG (with a private "beach" on the nearly-full lake, watching the parade of fishing boats, houseboats, and PWCs) ... our hats are off to Lydia for a bang-up job hosting the 1st SLG (you done real good, Girl!), and looking forward to SLG 2017 ... :thumbsup: ... can't hardly wait!

Now, to get ready for the IRG ... :D ...!

CHEERS!

Lydia
Thank you for putting on such a wonderful gathering! My sister and I had a great time, all she did on the 5 hour drive home was talk about all the great people she met and how much fun she had. We are both looking forward to next year's Shasta gathering and hope to bring both trailers and maybe I can even get Peggy to join us. Trying to catch up on house/yard work so I can pull my tear out from under the carport, pull everything out and repack for the camping season. Looking forward to Stevenson and a full summer of new adventures.

Had and AWESOME time as always! was great to see the water level so high and the nice breeze kept most of the bugs away! I feel like a party pooper because I went to nap Saturday afternoon and woke to it dark! missed the pot luck and the campfire all together. I did walk down with the dog to see what was going on and was able to listen to some music. Great to see so many trailers, and tear drops for that matter! Well done Lady Bug. :applause: The boys had a blast sleeping in the 47 Cub and Amie and I slept like rock in the Hunter. Just goes by so darn fast and then........ Back to work! Looking forward to next time, and already paid for our spot!. :beer: :thumbsup:
