Just double, triple, quadruple checking (LOL)
See y'all tomorrow

Site 67 has just opened up for the weekend. If you’re interested message me before 1pm on Thursday, 5/19 so you can take over a reservation from a Tabber who can’t make it.

We will take it!

We have released A23 if anyone wants to book

It appears C88 became available if anyone is still looking for a spot at Lincoln Rock this weekend.

Day one was a huge success and the dessert potluck was amazingly great as always! Lots of old friends here from previous years, and so many new friends, and new Tabbers! Thanks to all who are making this gathering the fun place to be!

This is Laurie - MissScarletand2doods. I’m thinking of hitting a winery on Saturday - lunch time/12:00(ish)? - in Woodinville - 17(ish) miles north of Lincoln Rock State Park. Let me know if you are interested in doing a mid-day wine tasting/lunch??? Quite a few wineries up there to check out. My cell (509) 531-9680 - texting might be easier.

@2Cougs sorry, just seeing this, we ended up deciding to keep our Saturday arrival because we all got colds this past weekend. We are on the road and will arrive this afternoon. We got a bad head cold and we were not sure we were even going to be able to go. Luckily we all are feeling better and we had got negative “c” results back.

Such fun was had by all!!!!  Here are a few pics… feel free to add more if you have them:

@2Cougs thanks for all the pics. We missed being able to attend as honorary members of the SpoT@b group. Appears there were many smiling faces at your gathering. Hope everyone had a great time. And, maybe we'll be there next year!

And keep an out out for when to make reservations for East Meets West 2023!!!

Thank you for including us, despite being late to join. We had a great time and so happy to have met many of you. Dan & Karla

Great pics 2Cougs! Thanks for this! 

While it’s good to be home, I sure had a great time at East Meets West at Lincoln Rock State Park this weekend!  Thanks again to all those who pitched in to help, and others who offered their help! More hands are always appreciated! 

I also am interested in any feedback about this years’ gathering, or suggestions for next year. What worked for you, what didn’t, and what seemed to be missing. One change is that next year’s Happy Hour will be earlier! 

I hope everyone made it home or their next stop safely! Thanks again!

So nice to put faces to T@B names on the forum. I'm amazed and humbled by all your experiences, knowledge, and passion for our super cool little trailers.
I am so very sorry I brought covid into the camp, without Mary (@2Cougs) and her self-test, I would have been convinced it was allergies with a cold.
Looking forward to next year and not being such a newbie.
Thoughts from the newbie? 
'Coffee and Q&A' in the mornings? I don't like to bug people with dumb questions - and really hate to bother people during their morning coffee. BUT, if it's named Coffee and Q&A I might be more open to 'bug' people
Nightly Happy Hour - No Host...just come and sit (4ish to 5ish??)
I thought the potluck was amazingly yummy!!!!!!
Dessert night maybe a tiny bit later - maybe 7ish
I LOVED MY WOOD ORNAMENT - THANK YOU CRAIG!!!!!!!! @2Cougs
Linda - thank you for helping me back up!!!!! (and I can't remember the other gal's name - I'm sorry)
Safe travels and happy camping everyone - Laurie

Thanks Becky, Mary and Craig for hosting another successful rally. And thanks Karla for helping me figure out the picture.

Make it square and it will show upright

Was an enjoyable event - - - Thanks @Homebodyatheart - - -
then there was the 'After E-meets-W' flat tire

Tire Shop says they can not repair . . . must be replaced at
30% higher $$ than 12,000 miles ago 

Homebodyatheart

@MuttonChops, thanks and I’m glad you enjoyed yourself! Ouch on the flat, double ouch on the cost! At least you only had to replace one not all four at the same time!

TabiK

Thank you, Victoria and all the others, that I discussed the pros and cons of visors, sun shades, and tents.  Still mulling over which would best fit my camping style and which would I use the most often.

@TabiK Hey, it took me three years and I’m still not convinced I got it right! Kinda wishing now that I’d gone with my first instinct and bought the Isabella. 😁
