It went great. Very good participation. I would say 20-25 cars total.

There are pics in the Derby thread above.

So today I sold two ice chests, three sleeping bags, a big foot bag and two small camp pots.

Kirk ...

... change is good ... ... just ask me ... ...!

Thanks! for coming up with and running the Pinewood Gravity Races ... ... what a blast! Even though I didn't get mine finished, I guess you could say I ran it in the Under Construction Class (at least I didn't get eliminated in the first round ... after making some "adjustments", anyway ... ...!

It was also a great pleasure to camp next to you and get to know you better! Looking forward to the next campout that we can share!

Oh, BTW ... Bridgette & Hillary say the one thing you can-and-should bring more of to any campout is plenty of See's Candy! ... ...!

'Til later, my Friend ...

CHEERS!

We always sell lots of paint. I have a table out front on the sidewalk for camp stuff. It always sells real fast.

Go going on the jury duty! Doug.

Kirk: Thanks again for working on my dad's two Coleman Lanterns at the Dam Gathering. I am glad they are in good shape and that I can use them and not worry about them. I'm going to clean them up a bit and use them.

Do you know if they make cases now that will fit either of them? Or maybe I can find an old one that would work. One is in the original box - not great shape and both are then in a wood box together but they can still rattle around a bit.

Glad you enjoyed the Peanut Butter Cookies!

Michele - there are cases for those lanterns you just have to look at flea markets and yardsales. Or if you are in a hurry and have more money than time you can get them on e-bay. Looking forward to your cookies at some camp in the future . Take care.

Lots of hot temps about to happen this weekend...they're saying 110 in Sac. Some of us are going up to Fallen Leaf Lake for a vintage trailer thing...should be much cooler up there. Who's going? Doug

[nevadatear]

Going to Unionville, in the canyon should be a few degrees cooler than lovelock or Reno, but still gonna be hot! have fun Doug et, al.

[campmaster-k]

Well I hope you are all enjoying yourselves. I planned to camp 10 times this summer. I went once. But the year is not over. One thing I did do is take many naps in my teardrop. I just slip in and nobody knows where to look for me, its awesome. And for my next trick ----------------

[campmaster-k]

I just got site 26 on snob hill for Dam 21. I will bring the Derby track so keep your cars polished, or build new ones.

Dam Gathering is only 8 months away. Cant wait!
