Have you been to Cape Disappointment State Park? It's gorgeous, with rugged headlands, sandy beaches, numerous hiking trails and an interesting Visitor Center that focuses on Lewis and Clarks expedition. We really enjoyed our stay there.

Sorry we're going to miss this one but since we're on the other coast, Atlantic, we think that's a good excuse. The weather, alas, is reminding us of a spring nog — foggy and cool but sooner or later, we'll head south. Heading for Moncton, N.B. today and will meet Theresa P. Cats are enjoying the trip! Check out our adventures at On Burroed Time

Hi Theresa,

I would like to have 11A but only need it for the 8,9 & 10. I wonder how we would make the exchange?

Now that it is less than 10 days to the gathering.
Maybe Donna D. can help us with this.

Think maybe I should call the park and see what they say? the letter says 1 pm the following day unless they are paid in full, which they are, let me see what they say, I'll get right back to you

theresa shaw · 09-29-2010, 09:55 AM

Lizbeth, I see your in Portland, would you call me at 503 771-3193 Theresa

Hi,

While checking the Waterloo County Park site trying to figure out how to transfer a reservation, I noticed a link on the left hand site for a coupon. So........ I checked it out and it is a buy two nights and get one free! What a sweet deal. Valid after September 6,2010.

Thought the rest of you might want to take advantage of it too!

Theresa for helping me get into 11A. It was nice talking with you today. Hope to see your Surfside in the near future since we live so close to each other in Portland. This will be my first gathering and I am looking forward to it.

Kathy, Al & Theresa... sorry you folks are going to miss the Fall NOG. Al and Theresa, I see you already have your reservations for Spring at L.L. Stub. Kathy hope to see you there too!

Well, folks Lily and I are near Waterloo.

After treking up Highway 97 and across the Columbia River gorge highway we ended up at the coast at a lovely campground, Beverly Beach SP. This was one of only two SP's along the coast that I'd never stayed at. I just loved it and Lily loved the short walk to the ocean.

Yesterday we left the coast and drove past Waterloo to Sunnyside County park. We'll be there through Saturday. I plan to move down to Waterloo on Sunday. I'm hopeful that I can get my site for Sunday and Monday, that way I won't have to move on Tuesday.

So Lily and I will be there to greet everyone as they arrive we are at the end as you loop back around A loop.

While you're staying there at Sunnyside or as you leave go up the river (East on 20) to River Bend and take a look. We think this is best of the Linn County's campgrounds.
See ya at Water Loo. (Tue. or Wed, or Thur.)

Bud and Judy are already at Waterloo waiting for everyone else. So all you really early birds will have company!

Linda R002 · 10-01-2010, 09:51 AM

Attention everyone that is coming to this event. I just spoke to the park and if you print off the coupon and bring it with you, you can still get a free night. Here is what you need to do. Print the coupon for the free night. Come a day early or stay a day later. Add the coupon to a payment envelope when you arrive, with a note that a two day reservation has already been made so that the ranger can check and confirm. Simple as that you get a free night.

Ron, do you have a reserved site in A Loop or are you and Addy getting a site in B Loop?

Donna D. · 10-01-2010, 06:06 PM

I've just received a PM. Site 45 is available in A Loop. Linda and Taylor will not be able to make it, a family emergency.

Contact me via PM for more info!

Donna D. · 10-01-2010, 06:09 PM

It's time!

DON'T FORGET TO BRING/WEAR A NAME TAG.

I have about 7 raffle items to give away... BUT YA GOTTA WEAR A NAME TAG to get one. I'll split up the raffle, give away some stuff on Friday and some on Saturday.

Hot dog roasting fire going at my site on Friday night. This is not a potluck, bring what you need. And the biggy:

CRAFT BEER EXCHANGE
7PM SHARP
FRIDAY NIGHT
This is an "opener" event.
Remember, major brewers do NOT make craft beer! I only trade dark beer for dark beer

Everyone is welcome at anytime to anything. If you're not a beer drinker that's perfectly okay. Please bring your lawn chair and join us anyway.
