Lynn said she got an email notification from Michigan. Remember this is a State Park. Electric Power but no water or dump at the sites. Just want to make sure you have water on board to take care of business.

There's a dump on your way out of the park. Threw are electrical hookups at each site and water for filling xloswro each site. Shouldn't be a problem on either count.

Glad you mentioned it! For some reason, I was thinking the park had water at each site. My 82 gal fresh water tank is laying in the yard, with a 3x6 hole rusted through the compartment floor! confusion

I had planned to install a temporary floor for the trip... but now I need it to be load bearing for the tank. hmm

I have 48 ft of steel angle arriving tomorrow, to reinforce the lower side corners from wheel well to wheel well and to replace the front and rear transverse supports. I will install a plywood floor over the steel and it should be ok to replace the water tank.

The final version will have epoxy bonded corners and fiberglass over the plywood. For now, I will get all the pieces bolted in and fitted. Then I will unbolt, final clean, and reassemble with epoxy.

Looks like weather will be pretty good next week, not too hot! This should be a great GTG!

Check in time is 300pm so we will prob arrive around then. I lucked out this time, I'm only hour and half away!

Safe travels to all. See you soon.

Have Barth, will travel Tooling Along

Water fill is same location at dumping Station by the gate.
You can fill up when you arrive. (No hose connections near the individual sites).

If you're coming to the GTG and have any Barth Parts or Pieces bring them along. If we have enough and there is any interest we may have another auction to raise money for the website. We may even sale Lou's ice cream for $11.50 a half Gallon.

Sherrie has had something come up with work and we're not going to be able to make it. We're both really bummed that we can't see everyone. Before I cancel our site would anyone like to have it? Have fun and we hope to see all of you again soon.
