Long hours for me, plus drive time back and forth to Elkins every day.

Last two nights, when I went to log in I could not get to FTE.
Since my time is at a premium I didn't have time to check several times to see if I could get the site to come up.

it seems to be alright -- need to ground pigtail for lights - they flicker when i hit a bump -- rained sat. night and it didn't leak -- the explorer pulled it effortlessly -- cabella's was really nice but my advice would be to leave cash checkbook and credit cards at home that place could cause a man to spend lots of money -- that store is really nice though

That's what I say about going to Tractor Supply! I could drop a fortune in that place! Toys for big boys....yup, my kinda place!

As for camping, there is one campground (a commercial property) within a 3 minute drive, Pipestem State Park is within a 10 minute drive, and Bluestone State Park is within a 15 minute drive. If you don't need ANY facilities, we can put you right on the grounds of the truck show....I'll just put you towards the back close to the tree line for shade.

Well....it kinda depends on what he brings and what he needs/wants. I just figured he'd prefer a shady area.

LOL

Like I said, there are three places close by. The closest is a KOA style place. Next would be Pipestem State Park....lots of ammenities but probably the highest cost of all the three. Last is Bluestone State Park....lowest cost, a little longer drive but almost on Bluestone Lake.
