This sounds like a good time. I'll have to get with the wife and see if she wants to get away in November. It's such a busy month. My wife's family has 3 birthdays that month.

Nick... It's a blast.. the more the merrier (as they always say) ... As I said in other post's... The campground is full by the time the gathering gets here (Nov.) ... We had people last year that decided they wanted to come at the last minute and they're were no sites available in the whole campground.. let alone a site by the group ... so it is recommended to make reservations early ... where would ya be coming from ?

here's a few pictures from previous years If you haven't seen em yet....

Besides the fact I'm an idiot and can't tell north from south, those of you questioning whether or not to go. YOU NEED TO GO! You get a bunch of people with a common interest and sit around and drink and eat and BS and then you see the things you don't have in common and learn and embrace them and make a bunch of new friends have one of the best weekend ever. We just had ours and that's what happened.
