I would appreciate hearing your campground recommendations for the Bryce-Zion-GC loop.

Excuses, excuses....
Looks like you guys had a blast, as usual! Sorry that Mark and I had to miss it.
My excuse for not showing up to the Jackson rally was I had a gig in San Francisco on Friday, October 15 with the LATIN KINGS!
WE ROCKED IT! Funk, Latin, Jazz...Yoshi's was packed! OMG, pinch me. I was definitely playing with the Big Boys; Tower of Power, War, Sly and the Family Stone, MALO, Jorge Santana, legendary percussionist Pete Escovedo and many, many more top notch musicians and singers!
We'll try to make the next rally.
Cheers! Karin

It's all your fault....
You welcomed us with open arms.... Invited us in.... Showed us around... Listened to our insanity.... Shared some of your wisdom.... And then you fed us fabulous cuisine and liquored us up....
So.... Upon waking on Sunday morning.... We knew just what we had to do... We had to start the Airstream Diet....
Ordered our 2011 27FB Classic (probably the best X-mas present ever)
Hope to see everyone again at your next gathering!

Hi all, well I believe we had ourselves another awesome rally at Jackson!
Great to see old friends and make new ones
I would like to thank each of you that attended and even those that weren’t able to make it in the end for your patience with the reservation policies.
I’m working on getting Jackson 2011 setup and set in the next couple of days so watch for it.
I’m sure Big Dee will get a thread started for Casini 2011 in April! Can't wait!
See ya down the road or even another rally!

Saturday....leading up to potluck
I shall post picture pretty much in the order that I took them. Children, dogs, cats, rabbit.......RABBIT! TKNELLE one upped us by introducing their pet bunny. Silver grey too. In the future I hope they keep close watch on it.....it could be potluck sssssstew.
Our English ralliers at Casini paid us a visit Saturday via Skype. What pleasure. Lynn is shown conversing with them on Vinnie's laptop although it was difficult to view the Leatherbys through the glare on the 'puter screen.

We welcomed several new folks this time. I'm guessing that none of them were not disappointed and will join us again. Talk about excited...one couple, Karen and Chris took the plunge in to the AS diet life by placing an order for a 2011 FB coach. WOW that's a serious diet...eh.
We were also glad to see Dave and Penny, geezernbabe. Although they didn't bring their beautiful completely renovated 70s AS they drove over for the potluck in their earlt 70s Olds convertible, a cousin to Neil and Lynn's Buick convertible.

Potluck
Whether, Sue, brings the Alumalounge or her Carvel like this time her trailer fills up. I am certain the food at each of our events gets better n better. We all eat way too much but never....welll...regret it. As the last morsel of food disappears all are invited to doorgunner's for the bonfire. Thank you to the some who began the cleanup so the next morning could be an easier get away for some.
Neil.

Thanks Robert. So glad that you got a house to fill your needs. See you in April. I hear that Easter arrives late next April so the later April rally may be more weather friendly.

wow, Neil: Robert nailed it: I feel like I was almost there instead of down in the Bay Area. The phots really captured the feel of the rally & all the friends and food, and drink, and food...
We had planned a birthday get-away for Andrea when we were too late to get Jackson booked but had to cancel: one old kitty, Sam, had some "issues" and we had to start him on insulin and monitor him carefully. We told him he needs to get stabilized by next April or he's going to ride up with us & we'll have Venus straighten him out.
Keep the shiny side up..
C&A
P.S. YHottys: there's a real nice goat milk brie at Trader Joe's, a new favorite orf ours. Try it.

Another Great Event!
With Thanks to Doorgunner and Jeff and Vinnie and Dan and Neil... (and others..)
Had a great time.. Too short.. Had another "interesting" drive home, in rain and slick sudsy standing water on Hwy 99... Apparently 6 1/2 tons going downhill on wet oily pavement do need more room to stop... No harm no fouls, but several folks put themselves at risk be swerving on front of us and then slowing down....
A couple additional pictures of bonfire at Tim & Nancy's and of the long zig-zag line of diners on the lawn....
