Glamis North KOA family adventure

Recommended Posts

I'm NOT in for shopping...much rather be riding...desert season is fleeting...

Sooooooo, we're getting married when?? :P

Careful Roger, there's something missing here, I haven't figured it out yet. I'm thinking she turns into a werewolf on a full moon or something. Just ain't right! :lol: You know the ol adage, "if its too good to be true",,,,

have you SEEN Strega? where is that butterfield pic? RUN deb

Too late to run now, looks like she's got him in her crosshairs!

I talked to Cal at the cg today about the spaghetti dinner. It isn't on their menu, but they are already doing it for one of the other groups on Friday, and he had offered to do the same for us. He can't do it on Saturday, but he offered to do it later Friday night (8ish sound good?) for anyone who wants it. I'm not sure if I will be there by then, but I'm going to try. I'm thinking the potluck idea would be great for Saturday night when everyone should be there.

I also released all but one of the sites he was holding for us, so if anyone is still thinking about coming, be sure to get your reservation in.

We are good with anything but it sounds like the Pot luck on Saturday would be best and allow everyone to get there and get settled. We plan to be there early Friday but we are both lucky enough to have the day off. Looking forward to a great weekend.

..sounds like less distance needed for most of these rides.

I GPS'd a few loops in a planning file that are BIG miles (Bradshaw Trail to Palo Verde.......and/or a run over to Glamis and back......... and/or a ride up into Joshua Tree).......

I'll be out there with daughter #2 (Cailtynn) and it'll be her first time on the CRF230F ;):) .......we'll probably be riding shorter loops.......the Red Canyon/Meccacopia loop looks to be about ~60 miles the way I laid it out.....anyone wanting a look at my GPS planning files can just send me a PM with your direct e-mail address......

Jeff snagged some GPS tracks from the folks at the KOA but I'm unable to use/read them at the moment (I dont know how to convert .rtf files??? ;) ) - Hopefully they can resend them to Jeff in .gpx (universal) or .gdb (Garmin) format......

I hope to be out there before sunset on Friday......

I think you can just drop the .rtf off- change it to .gpx and you're good to go.

I was unable to convert the .rtf files using GPSVisualizer or GPSBabel.

I at least feel a little better that it wasn't just because I'm retarded. Still no reply on the request for a different format. I am still pretty certain we can get them from Henry when we get there.

If we are putting it up for a vote, we vote for the pot luck on Saturday night. My wife makes a great pot of chili.

Chili sounds great.

I was planning on Getting some Carne Asada From Kennedy's Carne and doing street tacos.

If you want to post up with what you are planning on bringing, feel free. If you want it to be a surprise, that's cool too.

I think that is a KOA rule about Rotties. If you haven't already, call and talk to the people at the park direct to ask about it. We have found them really nice and easy to work with. Can't hurt to ask.

Daughter number 3 (Tarrah) has to work on Friday so she bailed on this trip......she's house sitting for me and feeding my dogs......easy enough for her to swing over and feed your pup too if you're just looking for someone to swing by and say hello/feed the dog.....

Would anyone be able/and or have the room to give me a ride home to ramona on sunday??? Kim and i figure we can get her out there for friday and saturday most of the day to hang and ride but she will need to get home saturday evening. Actually i suppose i could just ride home on the bike if i bring my street legal ride, think i will be able to get gas in ocotillo on sunday if i ride?
