2nd Gathering at the Glyphs...9/18-9/20/09!

[jhb]

Well that's a fine how do you do. Least you can't get fired for taking a day or two off to go to a gather. Don't drool too much, I'm looking forward to that...

[Wolffarmer]

I am still going to make it. But i might be in a very weird mood

[Kayperkay]

Don't know if this helps Wolfarmer but I lost my job of 11 years last Feburary
Since I've been unemployed I have had the time of my life...
I went to Maui for 2 weeks, then I decided to spend my summer camping all over the west ...then I decided to buy a teardrop...and the rest is history.
I'm a true believer that when one door closes...another one opens...so I just keep my eyes wide open (While I'm traveling in my teardrop of course) and who knows where I'll end up or what I might do.
Looking forward to meeting you at the Glyphs....Keep your head up!

[Wolffarmer]

Thanks Kay

Not sure what i will do. I use to farm and such but now I am if bit to old and crippled up for much physical work. And the tech jobs around here are rare and will have dozens of people applying for them that are far younger than I am.

See what happens.

Will be good to see you and every one else.

Well, ya don't have to be a bit weird to be a teardropper, but it helps...

[Ken Fincher]

Man I am sorry to hear about your bad news.

Ken and I just had a conversation on the phone....there is going to be quite a number of us attending. Please......when you camp, pull in and camp in such a way that others may possibly double up with you. Just an idea. Doug

Randy...check your PM.

[Ken Fincher]

We have only a few more days

There is going to be a great turn out the way looks.
(WHICH IS GREAT)



All of you fellow campers will have to work together scince we have had a great response from all of you wanting to attend this great gathering.

If you happen to pull into the Campground early we have got to remember that there is going to be more of us then there is campsites so we all will have to park so that we can fit a few Trailers into each campsite, then we would all appreciate it if once you get your trailer parked in your site if you would possibly put your tow vehicle in a campsite next to the site you put your trailer in, By doing this we can put other people from our group in the spot that you have parked your tow vehicle in.

THANK YOU! THANK YOU ! THANK YOU!

(Otherwords we are going to need all of the campsite we can get)

As of wright now 21 TD's & 4 without TD's (only 16 sites)

So we will be grouping up, most sites will be able to handle 2 or 3 TD's comfortably & some of the sites we will be able to put 4 or more into them.
I myself have never had any problem in Nevada campgrounds when we group up in campsites, But in California well that's a different story.

(Grouping up in sites makes the experiance alot of fun especially with this great group)

Everyone remember to bring some water with you.
Due to there is no running water, & maybee a little fire wood.

(nearest water faucet is a good 8 to 10 miles away)


Unless Grant brings some rain with him.

I can not wait to meet some of my old friends & meet some new friends, this should be alot of fun & alot of great food.

I'll be seeing ya all real soon.

P.S. List of everyone that is attending is on the bottom of page 1.

so since we will be arriving Thursday @ 7 and leaving Friday am around 9, when we get there someone tell us where to go (he he he) to be the most useful for folks. we can be doubled in a place someone not coming in until after 9 on sat? Looking forward to see at least those few who will be there Thursday.

I was thinking about unloading my truck then parking it up in the turnaround area up at the head of the campground. That way it wouldn't be in the way and would make more room for trailers.

One of the things I love about the IRG is that we all double, triple and quad up our trailers. It's a lot of fun and I've made some very good friends camping that way. There's something to be said for each trailer having a separate site, but I really enjoy doubling up and getting to know my neighbor.

See 'ya there!!

[jhb]

Well said, Joanne, togetherness can be a good thing, at least in this group. Average camping, on the other hand, well, not so much...

Along with Debbie and Randy, I'll be freeing up a space on Friday, so folks arriving Friday evening will have 2 more spots.
Great idea about parking the tow vehicles up the hill.

[Wolffarmer]

I went in to work today for a team meeting. ( My weekend is Thursday and Friday ) My last day will be Dec 2. 15 weeks severance and maybe some bonuses above that. 2 months of Medical.

And as I have some vacation time to burn up. I put in for some more days off and now I have 10 days off starting on the 16, I might have the 15th off also. That is still pending. If I get that I will head out on the 15th and stop down in the Ruby Valley just south of Wells Nevada and on to the glyphs the next day.

Cleaned out the TV today and started to load it up.

See ya all there. I will be the one with a silly grin and a bunch of Moose Drool.

[dguff]

Although I did not get to the first 'glyphs gathering in the spring and will not get to the second one until Friday the 18th I am hoping there will be some Moose Drool left by then. I don't know what it is but I am assuming it is some sort of adult beverage (at least I hope so!). Normally I just consume healthy beverages such as apple juice and grape juice but I may have to make an exception in this case. Aaarrr ya scurvy dog!!

[jhb]

Moose Drool is a healthy beverage made with Humulus lupulus.

It is, in most States, considered an "adult" beverage.

It could also be considered as an anti-aging beverage, as, if consumed in significant quantities, it hast the capacity to turn grown adult males into behaving like little kids. Unfortunately, this effect wears off after a period of time, after which the adult male tends to feel older than before commencing with consumption.

Secondly, if consumed is sufficient quantities, the consumer tends to begin to drool like a moose, thus the name.

Finally, it goes well with shrimp.
