Are there still full hook up spots left? We may plan on coming, Having a chance to talk with other owners and going to the factory sounds like a good time.

I believe that there are still full hookup spots left. I've been on the road for about two weeks, and am currently in Tampa for the Florida RV Super Show, so I haven't been able to check on Rally registrations. I do know how many FROG registrations we've had in the past ten days since we did the mailing, and those numbers have been excellent.

Don't forget that there's great food and entertainment included in the package as well.

Hey Bob, the check is in the mail.
Please keep in mind that we have a 41 foot Cedar Creek and a big long f-250 that requires a foot ball field to turn around in and park..
Also... We have some friends from Northern IN. that got your invite and they leave their 5th wheel here in AZ and don't pull it. They said they won't go because of that reason. I said I would ask because they would like to come.. Do they have any rental units available that will be on the grounds? I know some parks have cabins, but being on the fair grounds I didn't think so. But I'm asking anyway so I can give them an answer.
If you put Bobfidy and us next to each other we'll try to behave ourselves, but I can't be to sure about BOBFIDY.
See you at the Rally Bob, it'll be nice to finally meet you.

Unfortunately, there aren't any rental units available on the fairgrounds in Goshen, so it looks like your buddy might have to look into other options.

As for needing an entire football field to turn that rig around, don't feel to bad. It took Bama and LSU almost eight quarters to even find the end zone on a football field, and those were clearly marked and everybody was looking for them.

Finally, we can look at putting you and Bobfidy together. You seem like a pretty good risk to behave yourself. I've spoken several times with Bob, however, and it sounds as if he'll bear some watching.

Well.....It looks like my reputation is preceding me.

Not sure if I am a Good example of a bad example?.....Or a Bad example of a good example?

Guess I'll have to be on my BEST behavior at Elkhart.

Before anything happens we have to get the front slide replaced because of the delamination issues that we have been dealing with since August. Bob.....Does anyone know of someone in the Salem group that might help?

I don't have a problem turning the whole thing around, it's that long wheel base F-250 that requires 4 traffic lanes to make a u turn in..
Not sure about what kind of example BOBFIDY sets, but when your 7.5 feet tall, everyone is watching... Be cool big Bob..
For you that don't know BOBFIDY, He's really a nice guy watched over by a nice Wife, As you can see he's got a fun sense of humor..

Big Bob, hows that coming? I thought it was all taken care of by now. Hope it gets fixed up soon. Maybe a new Cedar Creek will be in your future.
(oh boy am I in trouble now..) Later..

An RV is an RV in my opinion. I have had a tent trailer, as probably many of the members here, so IMHO that should not be a deterrent.

BTW, welcome to the forum !!!

Thanks but not really concerned about being guided in. I'm actually wondering if our confirmation will tell us whether we have full hookup or electric/water. That would be helpful when packing.
