Thank you Nancy and Stephen, and Roger and Tourrhan for checking out with us. Hope we see you next year.

Welcome Robin, and Mike and Jackie. Very glad to have you joining us.

Robin.....I know of several Ukers' coming, and there are always others with guitars, mandolins, spoons, kazoos, whatever, picking together every evening.

The Alumalina Alumanuts. Not ready for prime time but mighty fine.

Everyone welcome, no experience necessary.

How many are on the list now to attend?

Hi All,

We don't feel comfortable going this year. Our camping has been much like what we do at our homes, just us and anyone visiting is at least 6' away, wearing masks and outdoors unless going to the head.


#98 on the list, we were hopeful but Covid cares nothing about our wishes.

Next year.

John and Imelda

My count shows 210 rigs attending. The record is 225 in 2018.

37 of 247 have dropped out. Pretty much the normal percent of cancellations each year.

It is crunch time, we are now in the final stages of planning, and must commit to the food service folks, so accurate numbers are very important.

We will not run out of...

.....hot dogs, or tacos, or fish, or coffee, or donuts, or Margaritas, or fun.

You will like it.

Very disappointed we will not be able to meet the most wonderful people on the planet, but we just can't tear away from commitments at home. Hopefully we'll see you in 2021.

John We are sorry that we can't make this year. #170 John and Sue Allison.

John,
Please remove Skip and Barbara from the list. Somehow we are number one on your list!
We just can’t see a way to make it down from Vermont this year without a long quarantine upon our return.
We’ll look forward to next year.
Thanks!

Steve and Elaine in HiOSilver plan to come

[CFR]

I am planning on attending as planned. However, my interactions will be limited to those situations where folks are following the CDC Guidelines regarding PPE. I make no requirement of anyone else, but if there is a risk factor for my health, I will be hiding away in my RV much of the time. Will sneak out at night and take photos...LOL

I recognize that masks make eating difficult, however if we do not have enough actual space to socially distance while eating, an individual decision, this suggests for many of us who are in an age group which is considered high risk, that we follow the CDC advice which is to not to be among those who do not know their Covid-19 status and are not wearing masks properly.

So, you might see me, or not. I will be available for anyone who wants a photo of their unit and I will enjoy the rally, simply by being in the near proximity.

Hi! This will be my first Airstream rally since the ‘70’s when Dad took us to rallies in his Airstream. I am not a WBCCI member and want to make sure that is ok. I look forward to meeting lots of new, fun people!

John, unfortunately Janicethepotter and I must cancel our attendance to the best rally that I know of. Your hard work and dedication of all of your dedicated helpers are unparalleled. May you and yours stay safe during this troubling time. We will definitely be at Alumilina "2021"!!!

[edwardbaker]

John, sorry but Ed and Chris Baker , #108 on the list won’t be able to make it this year.

But Tommie, you have succeeded in bringing out the worst in me, and I cannot let your comments pass.

YOU NEED TO STAY HOME. No need to come and remain secluded. You'll just waste your time, and throw the wet blanket on everyone else.

We do not need you dragging us down, you will be much happier at home. Keep your nocturnal ramblings to your own neighborhood. Do you think darkness helps in some way?

This is a 100% optional rally, we are all attending at our own choosing.

The best choice for you is do not come.

Why would you want to make such remarks in front of everyone?

As a matter of fact....You are no longer welcome.

Congratulations....in 14 rallies over 9 years, with thousands of attendees, you are the 1st to be kicked out before you even arrive.

John.... pissed.

[sandlapper]

I have you all noted, and surely do appreciate your kindness.

Gotta take the night off.....

John....trying to calm down.
