Well, the date has been set and the location picked. :thumbsup:
We have reserved 8 sites at Whispering Pines Campground in Cle Elum for Oct. 21 - 23rd at $20.00/night.
More sites are available, but we need to know who is planning to attend?
This is a nice campground on the river with lots of trees (for Fall Color) and far enough south for our Oregon friends to join us.
We had 6 trailers last year.....and it would be nice to see at least 10 this year.
This is the last hosted event of the year for the PNW Tear Jerkers.
Hope to see you there!
Good Roads
Brian & Sandi
PS
Potluck on Saturday night and Community Breakfast Sunday am...so come prepared! :thinking:

Better Warm, than wet and cold?????
But, heck.........it just doesn't matter, as we are to have one more shot of "FUN" before winter sets in! ;)
If it is cool :thinking: we will just have to have some of Tracy's special hot chocolate instead of Margaritas in the afternoon. :thumbsup:
See you all there!
Have a safe trip.

My participation has been difficult to plan since I had committed to helping a cousin with his place and his dogs while they basked in Hawaiian sun. We've finally worked things out so that I'll be able to be there for both nights. Looking forward to seeing ya"ll again. The location is certainly convenient since his place is just up the road on the Teanaway River.

We will be there in the early afternoon Friday.
We now have 13 sites reserved for us!
We also have a green like for briquettes and use of the party room.
Weather looks like it will be Fall like, but not crappy.
The Binford 600 Smoothie Pro will get a rest at home this weekend, but we are bringing mulling spices for Mulled Wine, Marrianne is making Chili for those who show up on Friday night.
Remember the Pot Luck scheduled for Saturday.
Oh....and how about Hot Chocolate ( maybe with a little YJ?) to keep us warm.
Remember, this may be our last kick at the cat until April???? :thinking:
Let's have some Fun!

Well, another great event in our rear view mirror.
We doubled again from last year, with 12 trailer in attendance (8 teardrops and 4 standies). :thumbsup:
It rained Friday night after we arrived and set up, but we were warm and cozy in Jim & Sues "Crystal Palace" around the propane fire.
The rest of the weekend the weather was lovely!
Our group of happy campers enjoyed a wonderful pot luck supper on Saturday night and a nice warm Sunday morning group breakfast......there were some great leftovers fried up.
The fall colors were brilliant along the river at our campground "Whispering Pines" and it was quite warm for late October.
We enjoyed some mulled wine and a good time was had by all as we share camping stories late into the wee hours each night.
If we continue to double in size, this campout could turn into a full blown 'Gathering" :thinking:
Thanks to all of those that were able to join us for this "Last Gasp Campout" before winter sets in, and we have to put our Teardrops away until spring???
There should be some pictures to be posted?????
Good Roads
