Oh, holds just as much. Just screams out more suddenly, 'empty me. NOW!' I call the 60g version the EpendyDad bladder, since reading about his on the forum motivated me to get one. I use my home brew pump to pump the water into the camper.

Hey Craig,

Please keep an eye on site 120 we really don’t want to have vagrants on it when we arrive on Tuesday. How wet is it on that loop did you need boards? Just gave our camper a bath so it will be nice and shiny for the rally!

Finally got our camper back from Dealer last week Thursday! Everything fixed!! We were sweating it out, though. See some of you early birds Wed!!!

[NJKris]

Great news Nikita! I just finished washing my roof, was filthy. Too hot to finish washing it, will do it in AM. Humidity here has been positively beastly with >15" rain so far past 3 weeks. From drought to swamp! Like the Grapes of Wrath.

Just put a sign that says "Employment Office" on your site post. That should keep bums away.

Jean,
Site #120 is occupied now by a very large fiver. They have a yappy dog and have left him alone this afternoon. Cath and I will be happy when we get some nicer neighbors!
So far your site is not wet. We had a good rain last night and all seems well. Your site is a little higher than ours so the water from yours flows down to ours.
I don't think you will need boards, but I'd bring them just in case. I did and am using them for the Blackstone, not the wheels.
Got ours all shined up for this trip also. Have not had to tow it in the rain yet, so when it rains we just get it rinsed off!
It was super hot today, but our sites have nice shade most of the day.
C U Soon!

[NJKris]

Ugh! Hope you get yappy dog relief. Same damn thing happened last time I was there, they left the whole day with their barking rat annoying us. I called park office, and they did come out 3x throughout day, but nobody there. It didn't happen again after that.

Been raining every night since we arrived...... Hmmm? wonder if we brought all the rain with us? Cheyenne has been a bit drier since we left -------

It seems like that place has a threat of T-storms near everyday. After dought like conditions down in Jersey May and most of June, we now have nearly 16 inches of rain in past 3 weeks.

Well as long as we don't get stuck (highly unlikely) I'll take whatever I'm given. This adulting thing stinks.

Don't worry, when you get old, you turn into a kid again! And if you're lucky you'll have someone to help wipe you and change your underpants. And you'll think.....I sure miss those 'adulting' days!

[Wodstock]

Yea I dunno if I ever wanna live incapacitated like that. But I need cherry notes. I just tried making broccoli bacon salad. Realized after the fact I forgot the cheese. (I'll be doing a new batch for the rally.) Just had broccoli to use up and too hot to make anything at this point.

Well obviously you did not see Action News at 5, they said we are no longer in a drought

[rmac04401]

We have only had small bouts of rain in Watkins Glenn. Most of that has been overnight. Beautiful day today. At least for MC ride. Here’s hoping for good weekend. Looks like weather report right now is rain early early morning Friday 1am-5am

[Wodstock]

Almost half through work. Tomorrow packing.

[NJKris]

What's the bug situation there? The last few years there, was no problem. But the rain wasn't as bad either. Screen room: Yay or nay? Always brought it, never needed it before, never put it up. Going to skip packing it this year for this trip unless you guys say it's bad.

[Wodstock]

Kinda wondering similar, but I’ll prob just bring the 2nd 10x10 and hope the wind cooperates and the rain is not that bad comes the crawl.
