[Raquellita]

We will be in the tent area as well. We are allowed one 8'X8' space per person. There will be three of us there with two tents and we get 8'X8' times 3

[IheartMillerLite]

Early Friday...could only take Friday and Monday off work. Boo!!! You better have a drink ready for me!

[hodgee5]

[Raquellita]

Boo!! What a bust. Im thinking about leaving real early on Thursday. Last year they gave us 6 campsites for 4 people. See if I can pull the same thing this year...


Lucky you! Hope you're lucky this year too!

[hodgee5]

I hope so too. It made it more comfortable. Plus the fact of space for the bar-b-que table and 6 or so coolers made it nice

[Raquellita]

I'm hoping to get three spots for the three of us......at least.

[hodgee5]

Shoot, between me, you, iheartmiller and howdy, plus the people we are coming with, we are gunna need something a little bigger....

[Raquellita]

LOL no kidding huh? We'll just have to combine everything and make one HUGE tent!

[hodgee5]

haha i wish.... too bad everyone is coming at different times.... Im thinking about making a flag with HODGEE on it, just to show where I am

[Raquellita]

Yeah, I was curious as to how this will all come out. It seems like I already know a few people that will be staying right where we will. BUT.....have no clue who anyone actually is. LOL

[hodgee5]

I know me, and 2 other guys that are staying in camping and thats it... SO im trying to get to know everyone I can to make things more mixed up

[Raquellita]

I agree and can't wait. Maybe I'll take my little betty boop printout so people know where WE are. =o)

[hodgee5]

Haha there ya go...

[festivalfan]

We can combine parties Howdyyy31! But don't worry festivalfan, I'm comin to meet you!

good.. looking forward to it....I can tell already, i'll be lost...between ED1, the camping area, PBR and all those stages, I'll need a GPS to find my way back somewhere..

[Kymery]

I'll need a GPS to find my way back somewhere..

[Kymery]

[Raquellita]

I was wondering about the wind...those of you that went last year, fill us in..


Yes please

[hodgee5]

Festival... Do it... haha...

As for the wind, it sucked. It wasnt ALWAYS windy, but it got so bad at one time it snapped a pole on our tent. Hope it helps

[Kymery]

What wind?...if not for that breeze it woulda been much hotter. Although I dont think it was that hot last year. Guess I was used to it.

[Kymery]

Maybe it was those beer goggles I had on that I did not notice that much wind

[hodgee5]

I think it was friday afternoon? Haha what am I talking about, I didnt know which way was up, but it was really windy. I had a bigger tent, and my pole snapped

[festivalfan]

dang.. flags are expensive.!!
thanks for the update on the wind, hodgee..you just burst my bubble. i'm going to bring out my riding goggles to wear when its windy...ha ha. i guess my man trailer will be kinda nice if it gets to windy in your tent, huh....?

[festivalfan]

snapped a pole??? ouch... you can figure out what I mean by that...lol

[hodgee5]

Haha who says anything about the man trailer ;) lol

[hodgee5]

Haha just messing around

[festivalfan]

Haha who says anything about the man trailer ;) lol

oh that's right!!!! i've got the girl rig!!! yee haw!!!.....forget the man trailer then!!!! we'll only send you there if you mis behave!!!!

[Broccoli1]

Wind?

Driving in it was pretty windy but in the RV area I imagine all the Rvs made for a good wind break as I didn't notice any heavy winds-

[festivalfan]

[hodgee5]

I know, why send me to the guy rig? Thats not nice.....

[festivalfan]

I know, why send me to the guy rig? Thats not nice.....

let me get back on my chair.... I fell off laughing...I know!!!.. how dumb is that. just remember where the "bad" boys go....but don't tell GPS!!! oh gosh, will I get in trouble for that??
I'm beginning to love the idea of a girl rig even more now.. the boys don't think we need 2 trailers...I think I do.

[howdyyy31]

aww i wish i could go early too, ive got class on friday till twelve and i skipped last friday to go to a rascal flatts concert, and its mandatory. so ill leave noonish, plus a four hour ride with traffic, so who knows when ill get there : (
there's four of us so far, hopefully it wont be completely full by the time we get there friday night. have a drink for me on thursday hahaa

[hodgee5]

Haha ya please dont tell gps ( no offense man). But I know where they go, and yes I would go with 2....

[IheartMillerLite]

Well if it's windy and my tent pole snaps, I'm going to one of festivalfan's RVs. Make some room!

[honkytonkangel]

Yeah, last year on Sat nite it was so windy that they had to lower the screens and speakers on each side of the mane stage, remember??? (ok, dumb question ;) ) But that was all the strong, tent-pole breakin' force wind I remember at the festival.....

[hodgee5]

That must have been it then

[festivalfan]

Well if it's windy and my tent pole snaps, I'm going to one of festivalfan's RVs. Make some room!

let me guess... ya want the man trailer??? lol

[hodgee5]

Im guessing she will... Change of plans, we're either getting there wednesday night late, or really early thursday morning to beat the traffic and the heat :)

[Kymery]

Hey Hodge maybe we will see you on the freeway then, that is our plans. Thursday early am

[hodgee5]

ED1 or 2 ?

[Kymery]

ED2...sorry i was trying to make it hard on ya!! ahahaha

Dont forget I have the yellow flag with the upside down smilie face on it. Actually a story behind that, Hubby wasnt too bright when he attached it to the pole one trip, so now we keep it that way to pick us out from afar.

[festivalfan]

Hey Hodge maybe we will see you on the freeway then, that is our plans. Thursday early am
I think we're looking at a early thurs departure too... esp if it's windy....
my to do list is getting longer...damn... i don't have time to work.

[Kymery]

Well, let me know...lets carpool!

Wind sucks at Whitewater!! hang onto that steering wheel!

[IheartMillerLite]

Im guessing she will... Change of plans, we're either getting there wednesday night late, or really early thursday morning to beat the traffic and the heat :)


Well yeah, unless you're offering up your tent.

[hodgee5]

Doors always open

[Raquellita]

You're so easy Hodgee....LOL

[hodgee5]

Haha. Im a nice guy, what can I say.

[Raquellita]

Nice is good

[hodgee5]

ya but too nice gets taken advantage of. Not a fan.

[Raquellita]

Yeah, that sux big time huh? I'll watch your back =o)

[hodgee5]

ya it does, me and you have take over this page...

[Raquellita]

Apparently!

[IheartMillerLite]

My boss' demands are keeping me away from taking over the page with you! Thanks for being a nice guy Hodgee5! I'll bring some beer if I have to use your tent. =)

[hodgee5]

haha anytime. I should have plenty, but the more the better

[Raquellita]

I can relate Iheart! This is getting a little addicting and I keep getting interrupted over here with work stuff.

[hodgee5]

damn work stuff... haha

[Kymery]

Work, ooohhh is that why my phone keeps ringing? I thought it was my ears and Stagecoach calling!

[hodgee5]

Haha...

[pinacolada]

Anyone need any Forum camping wristbands? I'm selling two. I'll take $60 for both. I've decided not to camp out after all.

[Raquellita]

Was it something we said Pinacolada? :D

[Kymery]

I might have someone, IF they buy my GA tickets.

But hey, for that price, some of you with tents might wanna go in and buy them and share them to visit us??? Just a thought.

[hodgee5]

Raquel and Iheartmiller, I think we scared her. Pina check your PMs

[pinacolada]

You all are great! I would love to stay and camp but I can't do the heat...Not after what I went through this past weekend at Perris. And I'm sure that's close to what the weather is going to be out there.

[pinacolada]

hodgee check your pm

[hodgee5]

Party pooper!! Haha alright, I sent you one back

[festivalfan]

Anyone need any Forum camping wristbands? I'm selling two. I'll take $60 for both. I've decided not to camp out after all.

yes i want them if available...PM me...

[IheartMillerLite]

I hope we didn't scare her! Just trying to gather the best party people together!

Work definitely gets in the way of fun.

[festivalfan]

I hope we didn't scare her! Just trying to gather the best party people together!

we are really going to have a great party.....let's see.. how many more days?
work is overrated.....it interferes with my fun

[Raquellita]

Work definitely gets in the way of fun.


Once again, you've crystalized my thoughts completly! ;)

[hodgee5]

Work? Whats that haha

[Raquellita]

Work? Whats that haha

It's what I've been slacking off on since I've been playing here. You're right festivalfan, we're going to need a 12 step program once Stagecoach is over. :rolleyes:

[hodgee5]

Dont talk about over, its gunna get me bummed out. It hasnt even begun.

[Kymery]

Yeah, I am on the wagon for a week!! ahahahaha My hubby doesnt like me having beer after work everyday.

So I told him theres a problem if I stop.
I will be a beatch at for a while, and when the festival is here and I start drinking, and you know I will, I will get sloshed after a couple and bumb out!! So better if I dont stop, so I can tollerate more!! Good in theory, right?

[Raquellita]

OK, I take it back

[festivalfan]

Dont talk about over, its gunna get me bummed out. It hasnt even begun.
;) ;) ;) ok... you're right.....just look at me now!!!:D :D :D

[hodgee5]

Great theory kymery. Im gunna have to start myself. Build up the tolerance

[festivalfan]

kymery.. he's going to the man trailer for sure....

[hodgee5]

Haha classic


kymery.. he's going to the man trailer for sure....

[Kymery]

I keep warning him.

I am trying to barter with him, he is going to opening fishing weekend next week, and I told him that I should have the festival for the girls..NO WAY, he wants to be there to "watch over me". Hmm gotta remember to bring the Soma and Norco!!

[hodgee5]

whoa whoa whoa let the man fish.

[Kymery]

NO..you got it wrong. I AM SENDING HIM FISHING...and they do it every year, i love to fish also, (hmmm maybe I am not a little blonde girl) Ok, back to reality, I just thought I could sweet talk the trade, since he is fishing with the guys, then I go party with the girls.

But, all I got was an OK for the Norco Rodeo this weekend instead. Better than nothing I guess.

Any girls wanna go to the norco rodeo and dance?

[hodgee5]

O alright, I was about to say, I fish 2-3 times a week. (no offense to you but) that will be the day when a girl tells me I cant go fishing. I seem to remember a song.. whats it called... o ya, "Im gunna miss her" by brad paisley

[Kymery]

Saylaveeee....

I love to fish also, but not every minute of my life. I LOVE to dance and I will say pretty darn good at it, and he has two left feet, so I cant do what I love.

[hodgee5]

Wheres he fishing at? And as for dancing, only when Ive had a few in me, that way I think Im decent, when really, I have 2 left feet

[Kymery]

They are going to the Sierras for opening day at Crowley, he went to Lake Perris last sunday with the boys

[hodgee5]

Nice! Must be nice, but Im picking up my tickets this weekend instead

[Kymery]

Opening day is the 26th, but they go on the 24th to grab a spot, you gotta go set your chairs by the shoreline two days ahead!! kinda like stagecoach!!

[hodgee5]

Wow!! Thats crazy..

[festivalfan]

NO..you got it wrong. I AM SENDING HIM FISHING...and they do it every year, i love to fish also, (hmmm maybe I am not a little blonde girl) Ok, back to reality, I just thought I could sweet talk the trade, since he is fishing with the guys, then I go party with the girls.

kymery... norco....that's this weekend??? I may be interested!!

[Kymery]

YES this weekend, tickets sell very fast. If you are interested I can pick up the tickets. I want to go Saturday for sure. I like to go to the dance afterwards, but it will be more fun at the Saddle Sore. Sometimes I even skip the rodeo and just stay at the Saddle sore, it gets packed and I know the band...they are great and do great Chris Ledoux covers!

[festivalfan]

kymery..check your pm..

[Kymery]

cool...hope we can work it out.

[festivalfan]

cool...hope we can work it out.
not sure what event is at norco this weekend....let me know so I can look it up..

[Kymery]

google Norco horseweek 2008.

I tried to find a page on just the rodeo, but the whole week is so involved. Norco does this every year. It is a blast to go to a rodeo in the Horse Capital of the World and dance your arses off.

[NicoleErin]

Hey all! Much like everyone else, I'm stoked and cannot wait for Stagecoach! Less than a week!

There's for sure two of us girls in Forum, possibly a third. Depending on the 3rd girl also depends on when we'll arrive. Early on Fri if she can make it, otherwise late on Thurs. I'm hoping (!!!) people are super nice and can help up pitch our tent late at night in the dark! We're rookies!

Can't wait to meet everyone!

So I am going to sound like such a total dork for saying this but it is a REALLY good idea to set your tent up in your yard BEFORE you leave. That way you learn how to set it up right AND you can be sure you have all the pieces. Makes a HUGE difference!!! (even the cutest, most helpful cowboys can't make tent poles magically appear!! ummm wait, that didn't come out right!LOL!!)Sorry to sound like such a "mom" but that has saved me many a time!! I am going to be tenting it solo in the Forum as well and let me say you are in for a GOODTIME!!! :D WELCOME!!!:D

[Ajax]

Good advice- will probably save a lot of time and aggrevation.

[Rose]

Honkytonk....I think you just said it all.

you know that is funny, I have a $50k rig and I had to buy a $100 tent for boys to camp/fish this weekend, and he tells me when I brought it home "soooo I think I am gonna set it up so I know how when I get there"..WHATTT?? ok..it will NEVER fit back in that box, and you wont remember anyway when you get there. It isnt that hard...everyone will be doing it..just grab a beer/drink and start staking!! you will be fine.

I did that. I don't have a yard so I moved the kitchen table over and wouldn't let anyone help me. I mean, I won't have anyone but my daughter with me, so I had to know I had all the part and pieces and could do it myself.

My Dad was there and kept trying to talk. I kept going "Hush!" It was funny. But I did it.

[Kymery]

Oh I love that visual!

Hey, maybe you should sleep in it for a night to see if it is ok? You know, just to be sure and all.

[tgcali]

Don't let my daughter see that post! She has been begging to use the tent since I got it. I keep asking where, in the living room?

[sunkisses]

LMAO @ cute cowboys with poles :D

Boy, did you just put my imagination to work;)

[tgcali]

Boy, did you just put my imagination to work;)

I'm not going to ask. Nope.

My daughter saw that post. She gave me a very good argument for it. All about how we could set up the tent on the patio, and the chairs and cooler and make sure our campground would work before we get there. (Like that's going to happen!)

My response: That was a very well thought out argument. No.

Hers: You suck.

KIDS! you gotta love em. Tell her she can set up AND take down, clean up, and repack, then she has a deal.

[tgcali]

Interesting concept.

[Kymery]

Interesting concept.

Comes with experience of 3 kids and 2 step kids!

[tgcali]

Only problem is~mine would. She would pack,repack, all of it, if it meant she got what she wanted. I DON'T want to sleep on my patio.

[Kymery]
