What a great time that was! Thank you to all who took part, it was such a nice group of people! Julie & I are just back home after locking up the group camp. This will be the thread if anyone would like to post photos or comments. I will be adding our photos and comments in a bit.

 

Here is the original posting about the gathering -

Nice that you all had a great time.

Waiting for the pictures.

Thanks Ski for putting this together.

We'll have to make it sometime.

Let me be the first with a big shout out to Ski and Julie for being such great hosts of the WTW gathering. I had a great time meeting new friends and catching up with old ones I haven't seen in a few years. The weather couldn't have been any better!  Lots of great rigs to check out and plenty of good conversation.

The food everyone prepared was outstanding, and I think I might have gained a pound or two. The food was so good, it was also enjoyed by a couple of uninvited guests. I'm sure Ski will fill you in.......

Again, thanks to SKI and Julie, and everyone I got the opportunity to meet and chat with for a great time. Maybe, if we're lucky, this might become a yearly event. I'll post a few picures when I get home next week.

C'mon! Not one photo from any of you? It is bad enough I couldn't make it. You are going to make sure I don't see what I missed either.

and from the initial announcement about the gathering -

 

"To be proactive we want to eliminate two possible conflicts from the start so have set some guidelines. Bears frequent this campground. No food, ice chests, bottles, or other food/scent related articles will be unattended at any time. All items will be stored out of sight. While we all love dogs, they will not permitted to run loose in the campground. In camp, all dogs must be on a leash, staked out or confined at all times. Bears frequent the area along with other critters that may enjoy your pet."

 

everyone was forewarned.....................................................

A big thank you to Monte and Julie for covering the details that made the event so enjoyable. My husband was very impressed that the hosts would take the time to individually thank each person for attending, we both have not experienced that before. The other take away was the great diversity of backgrounds of fellow campers but all having the common denominator of love and respect for the outdoors. We do not have any pictures to post (next time) but wish we could somehow "bottle" the relaxing and inspiring aroma of pine trees and western cedar.
