What workshops or demos do you want next year? Are there any you are willing to lead? Workshops will be on Friday morning & afternoon and maybe there will be a couple on Saturday morning.

Will there be a Dutch Oven workshop again? Pleeeeeeeze!

It would be great if there were demos of adjusting electric trailer brakes and of repacking trailer wheel bearings.

Thanks,

I'd like to find a small group or couple to sit around with to discuss what it's like for them "full-timing". For example, how do you get your mail that is sent to your home address? I have a wireless laptop to do general credit union functions with direct deposit, bill pay, etc. I would guess that only those who have actually experienced full-timing really know what to do... they've "been there, done that". I'm in Site A-63 from Thursday afternoon to Sunday about noon.

Steve,

That will be covered in one of my workshops. See page 1 post 1 of this thread for current workshop schedule.

Thanks.

Is anyone going to bring a canoe or kayak? There are some good areas inland up the Coquille River. Anyone interested?

We are bringing our kayaks..however..we are newbies. Have been lake kayaking twice. Stop by our site.

I will be bringing one, possibly both of my kayaks. One is new-to-me so I've never used it yet. Maybe I'll try it.

Greeting.

Some of you may have noticed I'm scheduled to host the workshop titled: ABCs of Basic Repairs. This is where I need your help.....what topics should be covered or should I come prepared for? I'll be expecting audience participation for this event! Keep in mind that trailer brakes, wheel bearings, solar, LEDs, and hardwood floors will be covered elsewhere. If someone, that is planning to attend, has a specific topic or question that needs attention, let me know ASAP so I can address it properly. I guess I'll just bring my normal bag o' tricks with me and hope I can answer everyone's questions.

Thanks.
Eric B.

I'll have my kayak with me. I know you can go across the highway and up the road to a place to put them in. I've never kayaked up the Coquille.

Site A 26

I count 5 of us at the moment. We'd have to work around Eric's workshops Friday and Saturday and my Golf Ball Horseshoes on Thursday.

[Ian Waymark]

Good idea, Caroline. Would anyone be willing to do a Simple Repairs class? Hey Ian, didn't your Newbie's Workshop cover these types of things? Are you willing to do it again?

That's great Frederick! It was a big hit last year. Thanks!

Nancy

Hello Nancy, I am in for "newbies" and could probably put something together for simple repairs. For simple repairs it would be great to have the "questions' on line prior to the event to allow me some research time rather than shooting from the hip.

Ian

[Ian Waymark]

If people are still interested I would be happy to do the LED workshop again, but if anyone has an alternate suggestion . . . ?

Yes, go for it. I want to attend the LED workshop and the "solar" workshop.

Mitchell really enjoyed making ice cream last year! Great idea

Great idea for us "big kids", too!!! Karen L.

OK, I should read all the postings before I type. "Simple repairs" are looked after, so I will stay with "Newbies"

Ian

[Kathy Davisson]

I would be willing to expand the Ice Cream making workshop to some interested big kids.

[Elizabeth McGough]

I would like to register for the beading demonstration, if it isn't too late. Should I bring anything besides note-taking materials?

Thanks,
Elizabeth McG

[NorCal Ellen]

If the Friday Beading Workshop is still happening (I haven't read anything about it) I'd be interested in signing up. If Jackie or Thalia are cosidering doing this please let us know what we should bring to be prepared.

Thanks,
Ellen
