Alma and I would be interested in an Alabama gathering probably not until after the N.C. gathering, but anything is possible. Another possibility would be "Wind Creek State Park" on Lake Martin, East of I65 between Birmingham and Montgomery.

I'm pretty sure my wife and I would come.

What happened to this thread. I don't see where any dates were set and it is close to the end of june. Looks like it needs a organizer to find location, set a date, anouce it and be there even if not a good responce. Sometimes you just got to go ahead and commit.

Sorry for saying this but I was hoping to see a gathering coming up in Al. so I could come, drool and steal ideas for project I have in mind.

If you still want to have a gathering I would come if you allow a tent/ commercial camper / or possible just my van. I have all but the TTT.

The Unicoi thread seems slow right now. To tell the truth No. Alabama would be closer for me anyway. I have done some drive throughts in Bucks Pocket, Guntersville and Wheeler-but have not camped in any of them. They are all very pretty places.

I've had relatives stay at Monte Sano in Huntsville and it gets a big thumbs up from them, beautiful view on a ridge above the city.

I would hate to sponser a trip-this will be my first TD outing, but I think it would be great. Even though I have A/C for my Tear, I would like to wait until the heat breaks some.......any thoughts

Well, I started the post, but unfortunately, I have been unable to get anything together to go that way as of yet.

hopefully, I'll be able to do something with it next year, because this year is already booked.

I was hoping to camp up that way in the late spring, before the heat hits. so we'll see.

I would be open for a N AL gathering. Hopefully not on a weekend we already have booked . I had been watching this thread, but hadn't seen any definites.

I agree, the Unicoi, GA thread has been quiet, but I am definitely planning on being there at Unicoi Sept 8th. I already have our reservations. I figure more people are out camping instead of posting!! We are taking a break from camping for the summer because it is too hot and too many people. We'll pick it back up again in Sept.

Well lets get things going again. How about a Lil Fall Fling for TD's and TTT's. If needs to be in North Alabama may I suggest Bucks pocket. I have never been there and don't know what the facilities are like but what better way to find out.

[rmcelroy]

I did a recon into Bucks pocket. The trail/observation area on the rim is beautiful. The campground is down in the gorge with a sparkling clear mountain stream. I fished for awhile until I realized I couldn't see any fish but could see the bait, thats how clear the water was.

Come with your supplies in hand, although I'm not very familiar with the area it seemed to me that it was quiet a drive to anywhere from there. Someone chime in if I'm wrong about that.

Would be a great place for a quiet weekend, DO cooking, bicycles around the loop etc.

Where are you in the Ham PPDrew?

Shady side of Gardendale if that helps any rmcelroy. Hopefully Bucks pocket sometimes this fall sounds interesting. Do you know if there are any hook ups there. I can get by without them when weather cools off but don't want to annoy my neighbors with my generator if hot. LOL

It seems like they do have water and electric hookups, but I'd want to call first just to be sure. Cooler weather would be nice-I'm a real wus when it gets hot.

I'm down in Alabaster-development is getting crazy down here. I'm a weekend or two away from finishing my build. I will probably make a trial run to Tannehill, to shake things out in spite of the heat. I'll let you know if you want, to come out and visit.
