Here is a new thread just waiting for you to post your invitations for Oregon Gathering Before & After Gatherings (BAG's)! Many of us arrive a week early and some stay a week after -- so for those that want some company, here is your chance to put your invitations out there! I'll start...

We'd like to invite the early arrivers over to our campsite A20 on Tuesday July 15 between 7 PM & 9 PM for a campfire, snacko's and maybe some campfire stories. Bring your own beverage, a small snack to share, and your chair. Sheila & I will make something to nibble, & we will provide paper plates and silverware, as well. Nice dogs are welcome; we have two small senior dogs that love company.

It's vacation time! Yahoo!! See your soon, Domenica

P.S. Please keep in mind that not all attendees will have web access during their time in Bandon - so if you post an invite here, I encourage you to pass the word around at the campground, as well.

P.S.S No need to RSVP in this forum, feel free to just show up!

Thanks for the great idea and invitation! We plan to arrive early and will look forward to visiting on Tuesday evening.

SOOOOOOOOOO, where are all you early arrivals??? Three Casitas have been here at Bullards Beach since last Tuesday waiting for the rest of you! A fourth one was already here and left for a week and will return next week. Weather has been windy but nice 70 degrees and blue skies here in the campground. Tired of all the stickies so get those fiberglass trailers in here!!! By the way plenty of spots available this week. Sitting in our Casita using our Alltel aircard to type this.

We are first timers to this meet, and we are arriving sometime on the 15th. We would like to accept your invitation to join you that evening.

I'm coming in on Tuesday and think I can walk from A14 to A20 without much effort. I'll be there, thanks for the invite D&S!

Gene, save some of that sunshine for the rest of us. I typically arrive on Saturday... Sunday at the latest, but LIFE has gotten in the way this year....

Simon & Sharen expect to arrive on Tuesday, July 15 and we happily shall wander over from B-60 to A-20. Thanks for the invite and see you soon!

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaa! I have to teach in Boston on Monday and Tuesday. I'm flying the red-eye coast to coast on Tuesday night and driving to Bandon on Wednesday morning. I won't be there until Wednesday noon. *sniff* I'm missing food and fun.

Nancy -- Well I don't like that story! So sorry I did not stick w/Wed night!

OK, who is going to host Wednesday nights campfire?

Lorn and I arrive day after tomorrow (Saturday). We will definitely join you! Our very well behaved dogs may accompany us (Roger & Homer). We do look forward to seeing everyone.

Y'all are always welcome at A14... I think I have one of the biggest campsites in the park... plus the gathering tub!

I love the gathering tub! and look forward to visiting you site on Wednesday.

Hello All-

Berry & I will be arriving on Tuesday afternoon or early evening. We will be in A-50. As always I am so excited to see old friends and meet new ones that I wish would could leave tomorrow.

We received a phone call from Merle Lilly yesterday. He is a Bullard's in the C loop for now and will be moving to A-51 on the 15th. Merle has the double-axle Scamp 5th Wheel. If you don't know him, you must stop by and meet him. He is a very interesting older gentleman and visitors are always at his site. He has traveled all the way from Florida for the gathering. Merle has no computer so he is in the dark about anything discussed on the forum. If your lucky enough to be one of those early birds already sitting at Bandon waiting for the rest of us, swing by and say hello to Merle. Tell him Ellen and Berry sent you.

Nancy, if you read this, I can't wait to see you and give you a big old hug. Donna, I will be looking for you too. Sharon, is my drink ready yet????? I sure could use one. Your bar will be arriving on Thursday.

Drive safe and see everyone soon.

Ellen B.

It's the walking BACK that you may have trouble with

Tell Merle to enjoy my site Ellen! I am SOOOO jealous of everyone, BUT I am sure I will get a blow by blow of all the haps.

Who is going to do the blog this year?

Gene!

If you change your mind, Gina, you can always bring your tent. I would LOVE to see you!
