I booked site 100 for myself—thinking that I may want to plug my rig into the power source, just in case my solar panel can’t keep up.
And, thanks to Dicey’s great idea—I also booked site G8. This is so that we will have a gathering spot for general hanging out, campfires, storing the camp chairs and hula hoops, etc.
A couple other random thoughts:
* There is a nice pavilion right below the playground. Covered area with lots of picnic tables, an area to play horseshoes, and a big fire pit. We might want to take advantage of that one evening and have a meal together down there.
* And I’d like to do a better job of celebrating Thanksgiving with any Canadians who might happen to be in attendance. Last time, one Canuck expressed an interest in getting a turkey sub at Subway on that holiday. We can do better than that next year!!! Also, I should celebrate it since I have 🇨🇦 citizenship!
* Oh, and I really really really want to take a group down to Needles (Canyonlands) this time. We’d have to get up early and drive 1.75 hours to get there, do a long hike (~10 miles) with breaks for snacks/lunch, then drive back. So be thinking about whether that would appeal to you. (Also, once there, we could split up into two groups: one for the long hike, and another for a shorter one.)
* Also, I would like to grab a group camping site at Needles for October 13 - 17, for an “after party”. The site I want (Dutch Oven) is pretty hard to get. I will have to be sitting at my computer on the morning of April 13. I might want to enlist other volunteers to help me try to secure it. It might take a team of us at our computers…
Only 312 days until we gather in Moab!!!! 🐪
