Could anyone confirm if the sites are 30/50 amp? I have on my to-do list to buy a 50/30 adapter since the info I have list 50 Amp only.

There is both amperages at each site so you won't need the adapter.

Also, we are having a happy hour at our site from 4:30 'till 5:30-6:00ish BYOB for any and all that want to drop by site 154 on Saturday between setting up the pot luck and actually eating. We are on the corner at the end of the street where the pot luck will be held. We will furnish the appetizers (including vegetarian for sugarfoot and others) and the ice, raised fire pit and covered seating if the weather is wet...heaven forbid, but I remember last year.

7 days is as far out as our weather service goes in detail. It looks like slightly below average temps on the 6 - 10 day forcast. Not showing any rain in the forcast.

I can confirm (that usually get me in trouble) that the two sites I was in last year and the Pot Luck site last year had both 30/50 amp service, I can only guess that all the sites were that way. I will have an adapter for you to use if you need and want to save the $$$$ - but they are a good thing to have.

It's more of a matter of how many times I remind Mrs. HiHo to stop by the RV Dealer and grab one...
I think I'll be a good hubby and not pressure her

[klattu]

Heres a 10 look ahead...lots drier than last year.

[Airboss]

Whole lot better weather then we are having up here in Michigan!!!!

[airedale]

True That!!!

[Devoman]

All the sites are 50/30.They just say 50 on the website.

[thecatsandi]

Is there still any interest in getting an airel picture of the park?
If so, I will pursue it if possible. The area maybe a designated Game perserve.

[Devoman]

I would rather it be cold and sunny than warm and humid with rain or drizzle.It has been muggy again starting today.Temps reach up to 76 degrees.A huge change from 45 yesterday but thats how it is here.Here is the NOAA site for Santa Rosa Beach.
Weather Forecast

[wheel interested]

I would think the tree cover would oscure but maybe a sample of google earth will give an idea. What do you think? How much do you think that would cost us Michelle? Do you think you could take an aerial picture of all of us looking up? Or maybe we should all lie down like dominoes on the beach and spell can opener! A 2 picture set might be nice if it isn't too dear. (Gosh I'm supposed to be packing...)

Carol,
About $5 a piece for the flight time and the photos would be digital so they can be passed around on a USB Flash drive or emailed. If the recipient wants a print that would be at thier cost.

I just checked Google earth. From directly overhead the concrete pads are visibile.
