Yahoo West GTG March 10-13, 2011 Morro Bay State Park - Reserv January 03, 2011, 11:58:19 pm Yahoo Message Number: 119380Hey Larry,we finally decided that we might want to meet up with everybody at Morro Bay, but it looks like all the 35 foot sites are gone. I'm not sure if we'd fit in a 25, so maybe you could do me a favor? If anyone with a 35 foot spot cancels, let me know?We'd love to meet up with everyoneKate http://cholulared.blogspot.com http://www.cholulared.comLiving somewhere near the corner of no and where

I passed on the others as we really wanted to be in the same loop as everyone else. We've never been to that park, so we weren't sure how far away the other sites are.Kate http://cholulared.blogspot.comOn the outskirts of Loony-Land heading towards the center of town

It has been a long time since we have seen the two of you. If you have to be in California, there is no better place than Morro Bay IMO. We now have 25 confirmed attendees.See you there.Larry

Many of us travel with pets; it's pretty rare to have a "petless" gathering of RVers. BTW, this website can be very helpful in finding out where your pets are welcome:http://www.dogfriendly.com/ In the past year or so, the website has become super-cluttered with ads (like most other websites) but there is still plenty of good information for pet owners all over the U.S.Joan

The topic does jam up the site with a topic many are not interested in but so are the toaster and coffee maker topics. The purpose of our GTGs is to provided an opportunity for the members of this forum to meet in person and get to know each other better. Some of our best friends are the results of these GTGs. The only way to advertise the GTGs is on this forumHope to meet even more of you in March at Morro Bay.Larry

We won't arrive until dark because we are still working and will be traveling from So. Cal. Our plan is to buy a new LD when we get closer to retirement. I am the second owner of this LD after purchasing it from the original owner in 2007. We are looking forward to meeting fellow LD owners.Gary & KarenEmma, the golden doodle

I'm just thinking that replies--you know, confirmations, or inquiries about what sites are available--don't really need to be posted here. That kind of administrivia stuff should probably be emailed directly to the event's organizer.Andy Baird http://www.andybaird.com/travels/
