is there a list or something for what everyone is bringing to the potluck? i have no idea what to bring.

are there grills right at each site? i need to know what to bring from home.


Hi Louella,

Delighted you can make it. Look forward to meeting you.

There are not grills at the sites. What they have are truck rims for firepits. We will bring charcoal and we bring an old oven rack to put on top.

We are bringing baked beans to share along with ribs. The idea is bring your own meat, and a side or dessert to share. Hope this helps. Maybe you are already at the campground??

You can call us on 540-885-2148 if you need us.

I'm bringing mac salad and cole slaw! If I can figure out how to transport a dessert I will bring one too. Something always happens before I go camping. I am (as usual) behind in packing, so I guess I'll end up stuffing EVERYTHING in the car tomorrow (as usual) :roll: :lol: Can't wait to meet you all and see all of the teardrops!!!

Whatever you do, bring your rain gear! Looks like lots of rain this evening.

Gathering photos

Postby wanders » Sun Jul 10, 2011 3:33 pm

We had a great time meeting new folks and catching up with old friends.
Rain Friday evening, but great weather the rest of the time.

Thanks to everyone who came out and made it a success

:applause:

Photos are here. http://olddominiontearjerkers.shutterfly.com/pictures

If you have photos you like to share, e mail them to me and I will add them. ( I think you may be able to upload them yourself, but as yet, I haven't figured out how to....

Please let us know you got home safely.

What a nice time! Too bad it couldn't be longer. The weather was on our side. My Tearjerker sticker is already on my tear! I had to pull over at a grocery store cuz the ants were back. I killed them (hopefullly permanently). I was having such a nice time I didn't take pictures (thank God for those who did so I can enjoy them). We should do this way more often cuz we already miss our new friends. This was our first time ever seeing another teardrop in person (besides our own)! AWESOME!!! Really good picture of Kay and her fur baby in the water!

Hey Wally... After you left we saw the "Shasta" that that couple had (the ones that took the group pictures for us). Their Shasta was a drive in one. We also saw a Scotty leaving, but there was another one back there that I didn't get a good look at. I thought that one was the Shasta that that couple had. :?

Anyone going camping again before the September trip to Virginia Beach? If so, and you don't mind if we join you, let me know where and when... I'm always wanting to go camping!!! :)
