OK SO RESERVATIONS WERE MADE FOR US (CHUCK,LYNN AND DIXIE) ABOUT 45 DAYS AGO TO GO CAMPING WITH BECKY, BOBBY,BAILEY, WENDY, LARRY, DOT, WAYNE, BRIAN, JENNIFER, AYDEN, AND CARAS AT DAMES FERRY CAMPGROUND. WE HAVE A 40 FOOT MOTORHOME WITH 4 SLIDES, WHEN WE ARRIVED AT THE CAMPGROUND THE HOST INFORMED US THAT THE SITE WE THOUGHT WE HAD WAS NOT OURS ANYMORE AND WE WOULD BE IN ANOTHER SITE, OK NO PROBLEM I THOUGHT, BUT THEN WHEN WE PULLED AROUND AND SAW THE SITE........ MAN WAS IT SMALL, NO GRASS, LOTS OF PINE TREES, AND AFTER THE SLIDES AND AWNING WAS LET OUT, THERE WAS NO WHERE TO SIT, NO PROBLEM WE WILL MOST LIKELY SPEND MOST OF OUR TIME DOWN AT BECKY AND BOBBY'S ANYWAY.

FRIDAY MAY 23, 2008 SO WHEN WE ARRIVED ON FRIDAY -/+ 5:00 PM WE SET UP AND WENT TO VISIT WITH ALL THE OTHERS AND HUNG AROUND FOR A WHILE, AND DECIDED IT WAS TIME FOR SUPPER. WELL WE ALWAYS JUST THROW TOGETHER A MEAL AND ALWAYS HAVE TOO MUCH, BUT THIS TIME WE DID NOT HAVE ANY LEFTOVERS BELIEVE IT OR NOT. FOR SUPPER TONITE WE HAD HOT DOGS, AND CHIPS. IT HAD STARTED TO RAIN SO WE ALL ATE VERY CLOSE TOGETHER UNDER THE AWNING AT BECKY AND BOBBY'S, IT WAS ME, CHUCK, BECKY, BOBBY, LARRY, WENDY,BAILEY, AYDEN AND JENNIFER.

SATURDAY MAY 24, 2008 BOBBY CALLED US AROUND 7:30 AM AND WOKE US UP FOR BREAKFAST, HE WAS SORRY AND I WENT BACK TO BED, CHUCK AND I DID NOT EVEN GET UP TILL "GET THIS 9:30 AM" WE NEVER SLEEP THAT LATE, MAN WE MUST'VA NEEDED IT.
