Great, glad to have them join! I have an Exped single mat if someone wants to use, happy to save money and pack the lodge full!

And if we do have one more couple join, I’d give up my queen room for a double occupancy.

I called a couple of times today, hoping to hear back from them soon... Last trip took a day or two to get back to me. So far, if I have space...

Me, my son Andrew @An3 , @MilkEel , @afgman786 & spouse that needs some comfort! I'll book as big as I can get and probably have some additional slots...stay tuned though, it's not booked yet!

Calling out @prharper , you in for this one????

Just seeing this post

Was about to suggest another cabin. Just looked at family calendar and realized we are moving my son off to college that weekend so can't make it. Always game for future dates at GER!

So things are bit up in the air with me right now on this trip unfortunately due to work scheduling, I’m supposed to be taking ownership of my new building 8/1(it’s been pushed back twice now) which means shift scheduling begins and I’ll be working every other Friday Saturday and Sunday. Not sure which shift rotation I’ll be on as of yet until later this month. My girlfriend would also like to come with but she’s about the same time frame before she can confirm. So for the sake of not holding a bed from someone else who’s a definite move me and a spouse tentative. If things work out and just me or both of us can go I’ll post and see what’s available room wise then. Thanks to everyone who’s been organizing this and @imperium for trying to get me setup early since I’m a bad club member and hardly check here anymore

That's it? No lame excuse?

Just kidding...hope all is good...you'll both be missed on the trails & evening hangout.

I'm excited for this trip! I will be there on Thursday. Someone mentioned meal planning/sharing...are we doing that? Are we going to bunk up ahead of time or just grab whatever room is available when we arrive? Eric, what do we owe you per person (I assume you'd like reimbursement sooner than later . I'd like to do an ops check on my radio at the club meeting next week...a couple of you guys want to bring your radios so I can test my transmit/receive capability?

Ahmad, your presence will be missed.

We still have 6 bedrooms / 6 bathrooms to share:

I plan on being there on Thursday afternoon, hopefully by 4:00 or so, depending on what @An3 can pull off since we'll be caravanning down. They are pretty casual there on check-in, so I can call and let them know if someone else plans to be earlier to get the keys. I paid the deposit and my cc number is on file, so it shouldn't be a problem for an earlier arrival (I'll ask about check in time too).

For $$...I'm fine with either a per-room or per-person arrangement. I'm not worried about nickels and dimes here, so whatever you guys come up with is fine with me. We may have a couch/floor sleeper or two, so maybe a pro-rate for those that is cheaper? We can wait to see who actually shows up before we come up with a plan...and maybe figure it out before the evening beverages start to flow!

Food wise, I'm good with making a plan ahead...I'll start with some offerings (that my wife agreed to help with!), feel free to add to the list if you have a favorite that you'd like to share:

Dinner: Baked ziti casserole with ground beef & veggies (veggie only option by request, let me know!), Caesar salad
Breakfast: Quiche wedges (Lorraine w/bacon and a veggie option), apple cake (for those that know...)
Beverage: Homemade traditional Margarita on the rocks...I have a simple but killer recipe and I get fresh lime juice by the quart at work which is key! That and some decent tequila, upscale triple sec, and agave nectar...delicious, but dangerous!

Looking forward to a great trip with the group!

I plan to bring Butter chicken with basmati rice, pretty mild spice level nothing crazy, naan bread, and tzatziki sauce. Its eazy to freeze and then reheat for a fast dinner!

Bringing my own lunches and breakfast, but I'll be happy to have some of yours @CrabCake

For $$ do you want cash or paypal?

 

[MilkEel]

I'm not a good meal planner, but I can join in with someone and bring whatever is needed, just let me know. Actually I can bring some eggs and bread, if someone wants to bring a breakfast meat for a simple breakfast. And more than happy to jump in and help with any cooking. Looking forward to it...hope my AC is blowing cold by then!!

 

[MilkEel]

Eric , veggies are fine with me!
