Paula

Right then I will start making Peters ooops (Petunias) list.....

...go shopping for any and all last minute things we need (no Peter no just me all of the ladies needs)

...politetly knock on all trailers to ask if you can put their coffee on for them
(in my case be sure to have my tea made before you make your rounds) and if there is anything they need to be carried to the common area..

...Check with Jamie for extra fiber cloths and be sure you finish walbernizing all the newer trailers in attendance before the end of the day.

...for those older trailers in need of a polish be sure to leave yourself enough time to get them done before the end of the weekend.

...if it rains we will require an umbrella to protect us as we wonder aimlessly from trailer to trailer...

...for those of us just too busy and tired of getting our own housework done - the last thing we want to do is our trailers - so be sure to bring your Maid trolley with all the materials you need to provide a full service trailer interior clean sweep...

...no you don't have to serve our drinks - we can manage that quite fine....no you don't even have to cook as we do that quite fine too....

Be sure to get your own shopping done before you arrive - we are all dying to see what outfit you will pick - and I am sure there are some that can lend you a helping hand with your hair and makeup

Look out Laritta, Petunia will most certainly be asking you to hang out in the shower for a spell...so bring your tools...

And for the late arrivals like after dark - okay way into dark - bring extra flashlights cause the fellers make extra special runway lighting.....

Well if we were going to ketch some menfolk, we just missed Sadie Hawkins Day, darn!

I have stayed at the KOA and we have driven over to the lake to check out the campgrounds. The lake is really big, one of the largest manmade lakes with several beaches and one for campers and a large campground. The KOA is close off 75 at a well developed intersection so easy access to gas stations, restaurants, etc. and a smaller mom and pop type across from a cemetary so on that side the neighbors are quiet. You can see from the one map their proximity to each other and get an idea of the size of the lake.

Larry and I have stayed at Grand Lake St. Mary's SP when we were there to go to the Neil Armstrong Museum which is close by. It is a great SP. Nice pull thru spots and nice restrooms and showers. Very clean. I don't know if there is a pavillion. We only need a couple of sun shelters next to a couple of awnings, right? And then we pray for nice weather!!!! LOL!

Hey! I've been offline for a while...good news I will be there!! Be sure to let me know when and where to register! A pull through would be a good thing, but then again I have to learn to back in sometime and there's already a dent on one side just kidding...

Okay Ladies, I called the State Park. First is they dont have full hook up, all they have are electrical sites which are 23.00 dollars a night. They have Water to full your holding tank and also a dump station. Jackson Center is about 30-45 minutes away, and the Caverns are about 45 minutes as well. They Do have Pull Threw sites, and I do have a map of the campground, but I cant post it on here. They dont really have any sites on the water, but they have some that are very close to the water, within walking distance. They dont have a group area in the electric area, but she said that I shouldnt have a problem getting us all together at that time of year. She said that there is an 8 Dollar fee to make reservations, and you have to pay for your whole stay when you make reservations. She said we shoudnt need to make reservations, but to call at the begining of April to see how its going as far as sites open. They have Fire rings and pinic tables at every site.

So what does everyone think?

Well that is a fab idea Carol.....Peter has had a bit of practice - but someone really needs to work on his makeup skills Taken many moons ago at our first Halloween Party in our first house so that is way too many years ago....He/she might have aged a bit from that photo

Jumping Right In......

How is this for a logo...?? The shot was taken at the Jackson Centre Last Year.

I can work the sizing and any of the lettering size depending on what we all want to use it for....perhaps that souvenir site (anyone have the link???) can be set up again....

Okay, I like it, but one thinkg, First is that its not the Spring rally, I thought we were going to call it the We Can Tow It rally. And the Airstream is kinda confusing to me, its hard to make it out. But i really like Rosie in the window!!!

OMG you gals are cracking me up!! I have a question about the "beauty contest". How does one go about judging it? Is it based on personality,looks,best outfit? Will there be a mankini contest or talent portion? Inquiring minds want to know!!

You have to think 40's for both Rosie and the Trailer!

Rivette was the cool name made up last year and I think all the ladies like the distinction. Sounds a bit more fun and generation cool opposed to "women" I am no woman by any stretch and even further from a lady

The emphasis is the We Can Tow It! - if you pop it in the name then it will get lost.

It is spring opposed to summer (as in last years Summer Solstice Rivette Rally) so just trying to be a bit consistent. And thinking ahead to the second Rally that will be in the fall right...so if you call them both the same thing then we will get very confused - and that does not take much for some of us like Moi!!

OK, well thats just what I was thinking, but do whatever, and I said the 2nd rally was going to allow men, and be more of a forums rally, so it was going to be called that
