Campground question-Rookie here

[Raquellita]

I plan on arriving on Wednesday night. Will there be any activities in the campground areas prior to the gates opening on Friday? This is my first time.

[Kymery]

Mainly just personal party's at everyones rigs. Last year they had the Polo Bar open and a band there, that was a blast.

[Raquellita]

Thank you for the info! So, I'm figuring it will be like one HUGE tailgate party huh? I can't wait!

[Kymery]

Yeah, that sums it up! Look for the blonde with all the MGD's! Thats ME

[IheartMillerLite]

I'll be the brunette with the Miller Lite hat. =) Can't wait for the giant tailgate party!

[festivalfan]

Yeah, that sums it up! Look for the blonde with all the MGD's! Thats ME

kymery, I may want to talk with you... check your PM

[Raquellita]

Oh boy, i'm getting more excited as the time gets closer!

[Broccoli1]

I'll be the one with a Six-pack of MGD AND a Six-pack of Miller Lite:D :D

[Cooter]

man, y'all like crap beer!

[Kymery]

Cooter, just because we don't drink your Pee water ie:Coors, don't hate!

[Cooter]

when did i say coors was good? plain crap, as well.

[Raquellita]

All beer is good beer in my eyes.......as long as it's cold! =o)

[IA712]

The only thing better than cold beer is free beer!;)

[Raquellita]

The only thing better than cold beer is free beer!

You can say THAT again!

[IheartMillerLite]

I'm with you Raquellita!!

[Raquellita]

Is it May yet? I'm soooooo ready to go!

[abra]

I can be a beer snob myself.... but remember, this is a marathon, not a sprint. Definitely the right time for light beer.

[Rose]

I saw the people who sprinted last year....felt sorry for them missing the concert because they were too busy praying to the porcelain god and taking up a stall.

[Kymery]

My hubby was a sprinter on Sun Night! When Gary Allan was on, I notice that my hubby turned around and made a b-line walking over, thru, and into everything and anything in his way...I pretended like I did not know him, people were cussing him out.

I waited till his was out in the clear and I caught up to him, he instantly got hammered and decided that he was going back to the rig. I said, SEE YA...I wasnt missin the concerts, it wasnt even dark yet.

Soooo..I party away, head back after the concerts and as I approach my rig I see him sitting on the table, arms wrapped around the door handle and the door keys in the lock just hanging there. I asked why he was sitting there and not in one of our chairs and he slurred "i caantt get the key to wooook"
He had been sitting there ALL night, dry heavin away.

How he found our rig, I will never know and he still does not know how he did either, he remembers walking/stumbling back.

I got him inside and in bed. He remembers all of it believe it or not! I warned him he better not do that again this year, cuz I still wont miss the concerts, and maybe we better leave the door unlocked this time:D

[abra]

LMFAO - great story. been there...

[Raquellita]

Oh my goodness! Poor guy. Bet he's sorry huh?

[Kymery]

OH YES HE IS! He is sooo bumbed he paid all that money and did not get to see it! Lesson learned..I hope!:rolleyes:

[Raquellita]

Bet he'll never do THAT again huh? Too funny I swear......well for us.....not him.

[Broccoli1]

I can be a beer snob myself.... but remember, this is a marathon, not a sprint. Definitely the right time for light beer.

burns cleaner too:D

[Rose]

Loads of people got too drunk but I also think baking in the hot sun all day didn't help. Lot's of sunburns too. About the only thing that saved me from passing out at one point was going over to the fan that they had in the VIP section and getting misted on. I even dumped a bottle of water over my own head. I sure do hope they put those misters all over the place this year.

[Raquellita]

Is it true that we cannot bring in any of our own liquor to the campsites? Do we have to buy it there?

[Kymery]

Bring it on girl. If it went like last year, it was everwhere! Just dont walk around with the Jose bottle tied around your neck with several shot glasses in a holster. I know, I know it says no liquor, but last year, same thing.

Like I said before, I can only tell you my experience. We panicked but as soon as we parked we noticed tons of "red cups" in everyones hands. There was no hiding it, just being respectfull about it.

[IheartMillerLite]

Last year I had a friend get totally sick all over our blanket space. She was quite a site to see, as random people were taking pictures standing over her. There BETTER not be a repeat performance or I will be re-evaluating my friendship with her. Drink and have fun--that's the plan. No room for getting sick.

[askworldtraveler]

Respectful and observant - The local Sheriff did make several drives on our row at random times - not sure if they ever took any action - The advice not to tie it around your necks is good.... other then that.... have a great time. Our row also had the aroma of what must have been some ones prescription wafting over our rig from time to time... ;)

[Raquellita]

Oh my goodness you guys crack me up! Are we there yet? Are we there yet? I think it will be a blast and reading your posts is making me feel very comfortable knowing everyone will behave.........yeah right!

[Broccoli1]

We sat in camp with our brews- no problemo

http://slagpit.com/forums/images/smilies/Ed.gif

[NutsAboutCountry]

Everyone had the own beer and beverage of choice, just bring a plastic cup and don't over do it and everyone will be fine. The people in the campgroud last year were all happy to share, it was a great time and can't wait for the next 25 days to fly by!

[socalcountrygrl]

Beer....??? They Didnt Search Ur Rig When You Entered?? Ive Been Busy Trying to Decide Where To Stash The Beer!!

[Kymery]

There is no way in heck they would have the manpower to search all these rigs. They did not even ask us. Like I have said many times, everyone was drinking! (ok, ok not everyone) but you know what I mean. It was not a hidden thing. Even the employees just asked us to set our drinks down by the gate while we went to the food vendors at the campgrounds...no worries!!!!

[gaypalmsprings]

http://slagpit.com/forums/images/smilies/Ed.gif

LOLzz

[honkytonkangel]

Last year one of my beers wriggled its way to the top of my cooler and the guy asked to check my cooler as I entered the campgrounds, he looked and said "is that a bud light I see there?" and with a straight face I replied "nope" and he just said "that's what I thought. Go on in" It was awesome. :D

[Raquellita]

Boy! I'm loving this more and more as I read on. Thanks guys!

[Raquellita]

Seems like most of you will be in the RV area. I will be in the Forum tent only area. Maybe I'll just have to mosey on down to the other areas and see what it's like. Can't wait!

[Kymery]

For sure!!

They way anyone can find us is we have a 37' 5th wheel Holiday Rambler Next Level pulled by a long bed, crew cab chevy truck, pewter in color. We put up our flags, one is checkers and the other is an upside down happy face! Cant miss that! We are in EDII. I am the blonde and the hubby is the bald one with the goatee. :rolleyes:

We are pulling in thursday am.

[IheartMillerLite]

Raquellita, I'm with you in the Forum tent only area too. We can wander down to the RV area and find the parties--if you'll have us!

Thanks for the tip about the cooler. I'll be sure to cover my Miller Lights with a layer of Diet Coke. Can't wait!!

[Raquellita]

You got it IheartMillerLite! Sounds like a plan to me! I've already got my garage stocked with soft drinks (yeah right) and ready to go! It's going to be only girls in my group and we're ready to party!
Hope to bump into you Kymery also!

[pinacolada]

I'll be tent camping it as well. How safe do you feel about leaving your tent unattended?

[Raquellita]

There will definately be a time where we have no choice, so just taking the proper precautions would be the best advice I could come up with. I think everyone will be respectful though. I hope so anyway. =o)

[Barb]

OK let's hear it for Jack!! He is great for sippin and for mixin with coke. I can hardly wait.

[honkytonkangel]

I'll be tent camping it as well. How safe do you feel about leaving your tent unattended?

I had no problems last year! And my tent is mostly mesh = you can see right inside. Not that I would leave my valuables in there (no brainer) but nothing went missing or was damaged...even my cooler was left undisturbed, which I had to leave outside cuz its too big and my tent is too small.

I am going solo and I will be in the tent area as well!

[Kymery]

Honkytonk your going solo? I know some people would think that is crazy, but I am jealous, no one to worry about, babysit, etc. You are gonna have so much fun! I was trying my best to make it a girls weekend, but the good ole hubby isn't going for it...i tried to send him fishing, but nope, hes gotta be at my hip. All I have to say is he better behave until then!

And I agree, this festival has the best people and nothing to worry about, nothing around our camp was touched, people respected your space.

[pinacolada]

I have nothing to worry about then!

Kymery I have the same problem as you with the hubby...sun, music, beer, cowboys, my woman out there with her girlfriends..."HA! Over my dead body" he (hubby) said.
And the worse part of it for me is that he doesn't drink and I do. How the heck am I going to party and let loose?

I need a plan B for when I get there. Girls please HELP!

[Kymery]

Pina,

so no chance on getting him drunk as a skunk and putting him to bed? Thats what mine did last year, I was on my own form dusk to midnight!

Hmmmm..maybe you get lost? It is a BIG place!! hehehehehe

[pinacolada]

or give him some muscle relaxers...where there's a will there's a way!

[Kymery]

HMMMM...got plenty of those from my recent back surgery..

Can you spell NORCO and SOMA?

and I am Willing!

[Broccoli1]

The Mrs. and I have an agreement:

We both get to look at Cowboys and Cowgirls just as long as we're lookin' at each other at the end of the night:D :D

[Kymery]

The Mrs. and I have an agreement:

AWWWWWWWE;)

[pinacolada]

Sounds like a good idea Broc. I'll run it past him.

[Cooter]

my response was going to be him looking at the back of her head ;) but then i guess they wouldn't be looking at each other, so that won't work...

[pinacolada]

be nice Cooter

[Cooter]

i think that is nice ;)

guessing there are going to be a lot of cowgirls "saving the horse...and riding their cowboy" that weekend.

they can look at each other until the foreplay is over...

[Broccoli1]

my response was going to be him looking at the back of her head ;) but then i guess they wouldn't be looking at each other, so that won't work...

Mirror helps:p :D

[Kymery]

I think the questions is: can he/she last the 8 seconds??:D :D

[IheartMillerLite]

hahahah nice one Kymery.

Can't wait to meet you guys...and some cowboys....

[Rose]

LOL Kymery

Stagecoach folks seemed to be just the best. I had a backpack on my seat and just left it there when I went to see other performances at different stages and NOBODY ever touched a thing. People seemed to look out for one another and lots of smiles.

[Kymery]

haha dont get me started with the cowboy jokes.

PS: for all you Country virgins, Don't be scared,those aren't cowboy sizes condoms in the back pockets of those Wranglers!;)

[Rose]

I wanna be a virgin again :cool:

[pinacolada]

Virgin here!

[KAREN N ROBBIE]

OMG I LOVE KYMERY'S STORY AND I PRAY THAT I AM NOT IN HUBBY'S POSITION THIS YEAR..... I CAN BE BUZZING ALONG JUST FINE AND THEN KAPOW.........................SLIDING DOWN WALL OR WHATEVER! SICK FOR AT LEAST 24 HOURS....THAT CANNOT HAPPEN OR I WILL BE SO PISSED BEING ALONE IN THE RV.... I LOVE CHECKING THESE POSTS!:o

[Raquellita]

Does anyone know the rules of going in and out while the performers are on stage? Do they stamp your hand or do we just need to show our tickets again?
Only 21 days till I pitch the tent!!! It's taking soooooo long to get here.

[Kymery]

Hey, you may of missed all these posts, but you can go in and out all you want ONLY if you have a camping pass. You will have to show your camping pass to get back into it, and your festival pass (bands) to get back into the concerts. There is a special in/out area for the campers to use.

[Rose]

Last year they kept making us show not only our wrist bands but also our tickets to enter the VIP area seats.

[Raquellita]

Thanks guys! Can't wait!

[Kymery]

Rose, thank you for that info. Those are in the lanyards right? so if you have them around your neck all the time you should be ok...I am assuming...

[Rose]

Kymery, you are right on track! Last year my tickets had to be "will called" so they didn't give me any lanyards. I had to keep digging them out of my pocket which was a pain especially if you were double fisted. :D I am really happy to get a lanyard this year.

[honkytonkangel]

Honkytonk your going solo? I know some people would think that is crazy, but I am jealous, no one to worry about......

And I agree, this festival has the best people and nothing to worry about, nothing around our camp was touched, people respected your space.

Yep. Went solo last year as well! GOODTIMES! Met lots of cool peeps. And except for the total stranger who crawled into my tent thinking it was someone else, it was all good! (no harm done...poor kid couldn't even remember the name of the girl he was looking for!! LOL!!)

Only catch with going solo is even though there is no one to worry about, that means there is no one to worry about and keep an eye on YOU. So I don't get too crazy, gotta keep my wits about me, he he....:cool:

[Kymery]

Ill keep an eye on you honkytonk

[Raquellita]

Going solo over here too!

[Raquellita]

Kymery, you are right on track! Last year my tickets had to be "will called" so they didn't give me any lanyards. I had to keep digging them out of my pocket which was a pain especially if you were double fisted. :D I am really happy to get a lanyard this year.


Rose.....did they supply the lanyard? I think that's a great idea.

[Kymery]

I think she said that at Will call the did NOT supply them.

I suggest IF by some dumb chance you have to will call, boyl...bring your own lanyard and holder.:)

[Raquellita]

I must be blind. LOL

[Rose]

Last year no - because of will call. Other people had them.

This year I received all my tickets & lanyards Via Fed ex.

This year I will not be spilling my expensive drinks trying to get my ticket out of my pockets :mad:

[Kymery]

Two words for you Rose "bubba keg"

[EXC064]

For sure!!

They way anyone can find us is we have a 37' 5th wheel Holiday Rambler Next Level pulled by a long bed, crew cab chevy truck, pewter in color.

WELL THATLL NARROW IT DOWN A BIT
WE SHOULD FIND YOU IN A JIPPY

[EXC064]

HEY IM THE BEER POLICE I KNOW WHO ALL OF YOUR ARE AND IMA GONING TO GET ALL YOUR BEER

[hodgee5]

To all you virgins.... be very afraid... last year marked probably maybe my most amazing, crazy, awesome time Ive ever had. I still talk to people from last year and we still talk about it. But be aware of the weirdos though. Last year some guy was walking around asking girls if they wanted Zanax. Some punker/ rock guy that didnt belong. After " talking" to my friends, "someone I know" knocked him out. Violence shouldnt have happened, but he was a very persistant dude and kept trying to nudge intoxicated girls on. That doesnt happen in my book, I wasnt raised that way

[festivalfan]

hodgee..you're my kinda guy....and would feel safe camping near you. It may be that I'm going to make stagecoach a girl event...(we're in our 40's) might be fun to meet up with you. trying to keep track of everyones' "poison"...MGD, coors light, ah heck, I'll just stock up on everything. I may need to break the beer cycle and have a butt kicking margarita (or several. )

[hodgee5]

Haha definetly. We are a bunch of cool younger guys. and that kind of stuff doesnt fly . He didnt belong there at all, never saw the guy again. Alcohol cool, pot eh so so. Zanax and prescription drugs, get out of my face haha. Good times. Let me know when and where and Im down to have some drinks

[festivalfan]

those of you girls going solo...send me a PM, give me some info on your plans and I will do the same and give you my email address.

[hodgee5]

You tenting or rv festival?

[festivalfan]

You tenting or rv festival?

well, I'm looking to bring an RV, working out the details this week, ...what about you?

[festivalfan]

Haha definetly. We are a bunch of cool younger guys. and that kind of stuff doesnt fly . He didnt belong there at all, never saw the guy again. Alcohol cool, pot eh so so. Zanax and prescription drugs, get out of my face haha. Good times. Let me know when and where and Im down to have some drinks

send me a PM. we can exchange info.

[Raquellita]

those of you girls going solo...send me a PM, give me some info on your plans and I will do the same and give you my email address.

Festivalfan.....we're just girls also and will be willing to share the goodies as well! I'm talking beverages of course.

[Kymery]

Festivalfan.....we're just girls also and will be willing to share the goodies as well! I'm talking beverages of course.

Yeah, thats what they all say until that last beer, after midnight:eek:

[festivalfan]

Festivalfan.....we're just girls also and will be willing to share the goodies as well! I'm talking beverages of course.

ha ha....same here. we're looking forward to some "goodies" at stagecoach too...counting the days!!!!

[Raquellita]

Yeah, thats what they all say until that last beer, after midnight:eek:
Well, if it's the last beer, then we have no choice right? Hopefully we'll be nice and stocked up. =o)

[hodgee5]

I have a feeling that if we all meet up, we might have to make a couple runs to ralphs

[Raquellita]

I have a feeling that if we all meet up, we might have to make a couple runs to ralphs

Hopefully not hodgee. I plan on planting myself for the whole weekend and not having to worry about driving. Wish I was there already. :)

[festivalfan]

Ralphs needs a delivery service to stagecoach....

[Rose]

Give the manager at Ralph's a call. It might be well worth them spending 50.00 on a camping pass and deliver.

[Raquellita]

Wouldn't that just be the best thing?

[hodgee5]

Wow. Thats all i have to say is wow. And Festival, we are tent camping.

[Kymery]

Well, I got my daddy who lives a couple blocks away to cater to me if need be!! PHEWWWWW

But, I plan on being well stocked, cuz you dont wanna see me grumpy and out of beer!!

[hodgee5]

Haha must be nice

[Raquellita]

Camp tenting here too.

[Raquellita]

I mean tent camping. haha DUH!

[Kymery]

Hey now...did you break into your Stagecoach liquor reserves and start early?

[Raquellita]

LOL Nope, not yet........just getting a little ansy I guess.

[IheartMillerLite]

Yay for tent camping. We'll just all have to make sure we're stocked up with our faves. Then we can all share. =)

[hodgee5]

Tent camping for sure..

[festivalfan]

Camp tenting here too.

we'll take care of you, too....lol

[hodgee5]

Cant wait

[Raquellita]

Oh boy! Can't wait either!

Thanks Festivalfan! I need all the help I can get. hehe

[hodgee5]

Is it may yet? holy crap.....

[Raquellita]

I hear Ya Hodge!!!!

[tgcali]

I'm doing the tent camping thing myself. I will be with my 11 year old. This is going to be her first concert. I'm either wicked cool or just plain stupid. I'm not sure which one yet.....

I will be bringing some Crown. And Coca-cola. And Ice. Just a little, I'm still on Mamma duty......until she falls asleep.......I didn't say that. Nope, I sure didn't.

Seriously, we're both looking forward to a great time!

[Rose]

Wicked cool!!! Everybody will be looking out and helping an 11 year old and making sure she is safe and having a great time (these are Stagecoach folks). Last year we stopped several times at the Hootennanny (spelling?) stage and the kids were having a blast. You just couldn't wipe the smiles off those youngens faces. She will remember this for the rest of her life and will brag about going to her very first concert with her mom.

I'll date myself but my very first concert was at the Greek Theatre and it was to see Blondie, heart of glass tour.

[tgcali]

My first concert was Testament/Megadeath/Judas Priest - Painkillers Tour.

She is so looking forward to Taylor Swift, while I am going for alot of the others, but specifically Big & Rich. I promised I'd take pictures while she just enjoys Taylor's show. She is just about to start bouncing off the walls!

[tgcali]

Anyone have any suggestions on what to pack the cooler with? (keeping in mind that my 11 year old will be with me?) I'm kind of stumped on what to bring with me for the campground.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

[Kymery]

An 11 yr old wants snacks, snacks, snacks. Bring those lunchables, no work for you. Cheese, crackers, pepperoni's, chips, chips and more chips. Spome Wheat thins and some Cheese wiz in a can. Dont worry too much about healthy, just keep her happy, that way YOU are happy!

OH OH OH..Pop tarts for breakfast...always a winner!

[tgcali]

Pop Tarts! Good thinking, thanks. Canned cheese and crackers is a brilliant idea. You're good.

[EXC064]

PACK THE COLD STUFF WITH DRY ICE BUT PUT THE DRY ICE ONTHE BOTTOM THEN THE BAGGED ICE ON TOP OF THE DRY ICCE IF NOT EVERY THING WILL FREEZE

THE REGULAR ICE WILL STAY FROZEN FOR 2 DAYS EASILY

[tgcali]

Thanks for the tip, that's handy.

[Kymery]

Pop Tarts! Good thinking, thanks. Canned cheese and crackers is a brilliant idea. You're good.

Yeah well, chalk it up to experience!:rolleyes:

[hodgee5]

The campground looks to be getting better and better by the day.

[hodgee5]

16 days? Thats it? wow

[Raquellita]

Can't Wait!

[hodgee5]

Well, 15 for sure, maybe 14... I can check in all night on wednesday, ya?

[Raquellita]

For sure! The gates open at 8:00 PM

[hodgee5]

Alright... Im still debating. I just want something close to the showers again. Last year when it got hot, just went and rinsed off. Plus the scenery wasnt too bad either

[Raquellita]

Sounds like a good spot. It's my first time so that's why I want to get there as early as possible. Hope I get a good one.

[hodgee5]

Last year was awesome... I seriously cant wait.

[Raquellita]

I can relate, believe me

[hodgee5]

So Im looking for: Betty Boop, an upside down smiley face, and a flag with Festival Fan on it. Anything else?

[Rose]

In the PBR - people with red cups and name tags. :D

[hodgee5]

Name tags too ?

[Rose]

Can I bring a red cup in even if I'm not camping/tenting?

[CountryDiamond]

This is the first time I've read the forums and I must say that they are quite interesting (in a good way).

I can't wait! This will be my first festival and it sounds like a ton of fun. I'll see how it goes and if all is well, I might head up to Washington at the end of the month for the Sasquatch Music Festival.

I will be going solo (seems like a popular thing to be doing and hope to see a few of you there.

[hodgee5]

Welcome. People on here are pretty fun. It should be a good time.

[Kymery]

Welcome Diamond. Glad you are having fun here.

I wanted to go to Arizona this weekend for the Country Thunder, and I would LOVE to head to Texas for that one also!

[Raquellita]

Welcome CountryDiamond! Seems like the Tent area is going to be rockin'

[hodgee5]

[festivalfan]

Great, its gunna be the blind leading the blind. I dont have a problem being lost, more of an adventure than anything...

I need a special flag, .. what about a lighted-flashing whip antenna..or a neon sign...

[Raquellita]

Might attract too many with a neon sign

[festivalfan]

Might attract too many with a neon sign

ha ha..

[Kymery]

Oh, we will probably have our tubes colored lighting going up our pole. which is only lit when the generator is on.

[hodgee5]

Try the lighted antenna, sticks up high and sticks out

[Kymery]

Yeah, we string it up our 50' pole up to the flags.

[Raquellita]

I'm getting a strippers pole for Boopsie! hahaha

[hodgee5]

Very true...

[festivalfan]

[hodgee5]

Haha dont worry I wont, but the same goes for you!!

[Lizzy]

[hodgee5]

[Kymery]

Hmmm I may have to donate my trailer for all the extra men, and shack up with Festival!

[Raquellita]

yes.. please don't call me Tues and say...."remember when you........?"
ha ha

Did I miss something?

[festivalfan]

can i send my husband to the man trailer

sure you can.. but my guess is these guys are looking for girls to stay in their "man trailer"....but I'm not telling them what OUR plan is....ha ha

[hodgee5]

Haha no. Me and festival have been talking back and forth about tickets. She was just saying to make sure I dont remind her.

[festivalfan]

Hmmm I may have to donate my trailer for all the extra men, and shack up with Festival!

ha ha...maybe so....I think you'r hubby will keep my "boy toys" in line...errr, maybe not...

[Kymery]

ha ha...maybe so....I think you'r hubby will keep my "boy toys" in line...errr, maybe not...

Oh you would be surprised, I think when hes around people he enjoys he has a blast. Hes a happy drunk, at least thats good!:D

[Raquellita]

You guys crack me up

[festivalfan]

Oh you would be surprised, I think when hes around people he enjoys he has a blast. Hes a happy drunk, at least thats good!:D

I like happy drunks.. and being happy when I am...it's the nasty mean ones that I don't like. I know when I'm too far gone, when i slurr my words.. when that starts to happen, just send me to bed.

[Raquellita]

As long as you have your neon sign up, that should be no problem getting you there safely.

[hodgee5]

Im a happy drunk until people start being stupid and start either disrespecting girls or start offering zanax.... that bastard....

[tgcali]

I can't wait! Hope to see all of you in the Forum. I'll be there Friday afternoon.

I have a copy of the flyer and a countdown posted on the outside of my office. My co-workers think I'm nuts when I come in each morning and pull another number down. I think they're nuts, they don't like real (Country) music!

[hodgee5]

see ya there!

[tgcali]

I don't have anything special to tell you all to look for. Well, except for an eleven year old daughter.

I would say I'll be the one with the red plastic cup full of Crown w/ enough coke to make it look legit, but, I don't think that would be very helpful......

[hodgee5]

No need for coke :)

[festivalfan]

hodgee....we're starting earlier each day.....

[Raquellita]

I almost have a hangover just thinking about it. LOL

[horsephotographer]

My hubby was a sprinter on Sun Night! When Gary Allan was on, I notice that my hubby turned around and made a b-line walking over, Thur, and into everything and anything in his way...I pretended like I did not know him, people were cussing him out.

I waited till his was out in the clear and I caught up to him, he instantly got hammered and decided that he was going back to the rig. I said, SEE YA...I wasnt missing the concerts, it wasn't even dark yet.

Soooo..I party away, head back after the concerts and as I approach my rig I see him sitting on the table, arms wrapped around the door handle and the door keys in the lock just hanging there. I asked why he was sitting there and not in one of our chairs and he slurred "i caantt get the key to wooook"
He had been sitting there ALL night, dry heavin away.

How he found our rig, I will never know and he still does not know how he did either, he remembers walking/stumbling back.

I got him inside and in bed. He remembers all of it believe it or not! I warned him he better not do that again this year, cuz I still wont miss the concerts, and maybe we better leave the door unlocked this time:D

Hey I thought what happens at stage coach stays there..
Well guess hubby's don't count...
Moderation is the key to life...
At least if you want to stay in the game...:cool:

[Wild Ride]

On a recent RV trip a friend of mine had 2 too many Cape Cods. With cranberry juice/vodka running out of his mouth he said, "I'm full". Damn straight he was full! He's quite a happy drunk. Will never forget that staggering, cranberry juice/vodka filled mouth saying "I'mmm fullllll".

[hodgee5]

Breakfast: beer.... lunch: beer.... dinner:beer... drunken midnight snack: beer... ouch my head hurts already

[Wild Ride]

[hodgee5]

Nice!

[Kymery]

I was actually brainstorming this am about this, it would be fun if we did a pot luck, or brunch to fill our tummy's. We could do tacos, burritos or something easy like that. I can bring my home made salsa too.

Friday am would be perfect for this, when everyone is there.

[festivalfan]

gosh kymery... i had to handle all of them by myself...arranging meeting places, discussing drink orders, planning brunches...whew, I'm glad you're back!!!

[horsephotographer]

Soooo, what you are saying is that my hubby needs one for himself.:confused:

The price of one burrito is only somewhere around 6.00 so two eat for 3.00 each cheaper then most...:)
Check it out...

[horsephotographer]

[tgcali]

See, everyday I have to go to this awful place called work. Look what happens while I'm being tormented. You guys have fun, plan brunch, etc.

As for leaving the coke out of the Crown hodgee, I'm afraid I should include a little bit, I will have my youngin' with me after all.:p

[IheartMillerLite]

I told you guys, work gets in the way of fun! I'm at work but I can't help it--I have to pop in on the boards every few hours. It's addicting.

Now I HAVE to come Thursday night so I can be there for brunch....

[Kymery]

First: What the heck are you doing at work after 5?

2nd: YES you do have to come Thursday OR be there early Friday!

[tgcali]

What time should I leave Friday morning? I can't leave until then, but I'm uncertain how long of a drive I'm looking at. Any thoughts?

[Kymery]

From San Diego, you are about 2 hours away...what way are you taking?

If you want to join us for brunch, be there and ready to go by 11am

[tgcali]

I was just going to follow the directions they have on the camping page. I think it said something about 15 to 10 to 60. Something like that. I have to check it again.

[tgcali]

I just checked, make that 15 to 215 to 60 to 10. My bad!

[Kymery]

Thought you were coming for San Diego...why on the 10 at all?

I would take the 15 up thru temecula, to the 215 north thru menifee, moreno valley to the 60 East , which turns into the 10 in Banning, then 45 minutes later you are at your exit.

Even mapquest shows it like this but 2 hrs 30 min no traffic:

That's the problem Kymery. TRAFFIC! The 15 is atrocious in either direction at just about any time of day in this county. I can't decide the best time to leave. If this is the hardest decision I have for the whole weekend I'm in for a fabulous time!:p

[tgcali]

I appreciate the work! I do, I do!

[Kymery]

Your not driving a rig right..tenting it.

So leave at 6am, with gas stops, potty stops for the kid you will be there by 9:30, time to set up and come over for brunch. She will complain its too early, tell her to shut up and go to sleep during the drive!! hehehe

[Kymery]
