Six months should open it up on Feb 17,18, 19. I will book then. There are full hookups, 50 amps and 30 amps with water and electric. I am good for any type. I called Lou to see if there are preferred site locations. I will post when I hear more.

I suspect there will be lots of people ready to get out again.

The web site says we need a Recreational Passport. What is that Steve and how does one obtain such an Item???

Ok so it is an extra $9 a day for non-residents, unless they buy a season pass. Sounds fair!!

They started doing that a few years back. Residents can get an annual pass when renewing plates. Used to be $10, they upped it to $12 a year ago. I get one for my truck, coach and the VW.

Allows free access to boat ramps and state parks for a day pass. Camping at the parks adds a daily rate for that. Nonresidents pay $9 a day or $34 annual. For over 3 days the annual is cheaper, but may be useless unless you go somewhere else.

Weather is great here in Florida, won't be heading home any time soon!

Stay for a bit for sure, we are not getting above freezing for perhaps 2 weeks with nights zero F or below. This snow will be here till mid-march at least!!! Feels like Minnesnowta!!!!

I just booked site 130 for Aug 17, 18, 19. A 50 amp site near the center of the park.

Looking forward to seeing others in August!

Have Barth, will travel

I booked site #73 for Aug 17,18, 19,, leave on the 20th.

It is supposed to be about a 7 hour trip by car, so Ole Nose might make it in 10/11 depending on Chicago traffic, and of course it will hold together!!!

To make it at check in time, will have to leave home around 4AM, that ain't gonna happen, might leave the day before! Might be best to go through Chicago at night a bit cooler and less traffic. Maybe can get confident that the dreaded Vapor Lock will not pop up its ugly head.

Excellent!

Liz and I are barely an hour away to the north. If you are inclined you are welcome to show up any time at our place. An extra hour north but no limits on time of arrival. We have water and 30 amp available in the yard.

We will have a leisurely drive on the 17th to make it to the park. Hoping we will have a good turnout!

Booked 128 17,18,19. Looking Forward to it and all of you that make it.

More pre GTG plans being juggled and cajoled. So we will see which direction of approach to this spot.
