We just now canceled our campsite at Enchanted Trails, we have reserved a hotel room. So if its sold out, there is a spot. Tell them it is the spot Ingrid and Jeff cancelled just now. I dont know if the campsite is sold out.

I dont understand, I figured that if we canceled a campsite and got a refund, that that meant a campsite was open, and someone who is already attending can park a rig in our former spot. But, if things dont work that way, scratch that. Sorry!

Wow - this was all outlined in the e-mail last week hmmmm - so this tells me you did not get it - we are providing appetizers Thurs night - Friday breakfast continental breakfast is provided Fri and Sat morn - Fri and Sat lunch is on your own, however, we have an Airstream "food truck" on the grounds so you can purchase lunch - Sat night is our catered dinner - Sun breakfast is donuts provided by the WBCCI radio club and Sunday lunch and dinner are on your own, however the food truck may return. Friday night and Sunday night you are on your own - an opportunity to hit the great Restaurants in Albuquerque or we will have open grills.

Thank you

We appreciate so much all the volunteer effort and time and blood sweat and tears that went into this event. We learned a ton, but most of all we conquered most of our fears of the unknown. Does that ever go away? Probably not, but the shell-on, plumbing/electrical/propane was something were afraid to touch so we ended up in limbo.

You really busted your tails on this. Thank you again.

I would like to second what Pinkflamingoes said: Thank you to everyone who worked so hard to make this event possible- organizers and volunteers alike! It was a lot of fun and jam-packed with so much valuable information! I didn't get to attend nearly as many classes as I wanted... Guess I'd better start planning for next year!

Thanks

I'd also like to add my thanks. The organizers did an outstanding job, the presenters were a wealth of information, and the sponsors were invaluable. Prior to this event, my wife was ambivalent about the whole Airstream thing, now, thanks to Susan Teigs presentations she's excited about becoming an active part of our restoration process. I came away with many good ideas, helpful contacts, and new friends.

I hope you do this again next year. We'll be there!

Hmmm... Well, my husband isn't sold yet (he seems more excited about some cactus plants he got on the trip). BUT he sat through most of the classes with me and wants to consult Uwe regarding our floor replacement... So that's something. Don't get me wrong, he likes the trailer but he hasn't caught Aluminitus. How can I get him to catch it??

I'd like to chime in too. I learned a TON and I only attended on Saturday. Next year, I'm in for the entire thing!

Special shout out to Ewe for pushing me to register....it was so worth it!

While my trailer has some issues....I feel like I know how to polish it now and sew curtains
