If it is closer to home then ill be able to. But with business expanding, it will be extremely hard. Now if it was at a Cedar Point Camp ground, then it would be really easy cause i live 40 mins away and i could come up on sat night

Cause he doesnt kno how do run a business yet and he is not motivated. Ive been doing this since 7th grade. He started out like 2 years ago and plus he doesnt have the heart towards the business like i do and that counts alot when ur running ur own thing.

I have told Mark since he put together that GREAT map...

I would put together an excel spreadsheet rating the various choices based on a few criteria...then narrow it down to 3 and then to 1 based on final criteria...I hope to do this this weekend...

EACH of these parks has pluses and minuses...I'll rate them accordingly...

Only hitch is that you will have to trust some of my judgement...

But...here's some info...we camped 50 nights in the camper at MANY campgrounds this year and 40 last...so I've chosen a few campgrounds in the past 2 years and haven't missed yet...at least IMO...

So does that sound good?...hopefully by Sunday night we will have an OFFICIAL place to start booking next week...that's my goal...gotta have a plan...remember!

I would think to keep Nick in the running ... July 25 -28 as 'official' dates should be the plan on the table...I will likely be there July 23 thru July 31 (thinking right now...)

joe.

It doesnt have to b with 20 ppl. I dont care if it is like 4 or 5 ppl, i just want to meet up with ppl with excursions. Everyone in my area drives escalades and denalis and crap, which sucks cause im the only one in my town that has a real truck haha! Perhaps while u guys tow ur RVs down their, i can tow my equipment down. U guys can all ride my equipment hahah. I would feel left out of the group if i didnt tow anything.
