    Default shrinking spaces 15 feet wide eldorado I

    greeting stagecoach fans,

    arrived from austin texas (horrible winds) and am so happy to be here. just a heads up for planning purposes......

    sites are only 15 feet wide by 50 feet. my sliders just make it with a bit of walkway. where's my tent going to be for my buddies??? needs to be a pup tent.

    anyway they should have said 1000 feet or less.

    happy trails. happy to have arrived.

    Yep, we just got here..we begged for an end spot for the brunch..NOPE!!! anyway, yeah our spot is 14' wide, out neighbors pop out was hitting ours so we had to move over, now we are 2' from the next spot! Cant even open our door, no one next to us yet so we set out our tables...No way they r gonna fit. Cant even open the awning!! Way smaller than last year, but they arent making us disconnect

    FYI... if you didn't attend last yr. Dont expect the weekend to b perfect. there was sooo much confusion last yr and they seem just as unorganized this year. The stress is way worth it though, just remember to breath and have a great time! & be polite!

    How about inviting the parking attendants to brunch in exchange for letting you move.

    I'm thinking once the dust settles, it'll all be good! Do the organizers not realize how freakin big those RV trailers are?
    Life is not determined by the number of breaths we take but by the moments that take our breath away...

    Kymery seems to be one of the nicest people u"ll ever want to meet. She was here last year.


    But the truth is some of the parking 'police' are not very nice.

    We vent.... Then we party....

    Thank you!!! Beleive me I am telling the hubby to shut his trap!! but you gotta hear and see the kaos here! this is horrible! Last year it was smooth sailing. I swear the truth when I say it took 45 minutes to park 4 rv's next to us!!! BUT WE FINALLY LUCKED OUT...we got the HUGE brunch area for us! out new neighor if unhooking and the whole middle between 5 rigs is open!! Cant beleive it!! phewww.

    We are camped about 4-5 rv's from the opening in then fence to the dirt road that takes you to the entrance., and in the very first road...flag is going up as I type.

    Festival is 10 minutes away, grabbing ice..so she will get the first row also but more towards the center.

    again, there were tons of rvs that showed up way too early, before opening. that really put a wrench in the organization. they had to rush to let people in hours before we were ready because rvs were parking all up and down the roads leading in, the city was getting mad. we had to make adjustments. this is a massive thing to organize and having people simply show up thinking its ok has not helped but I assure you they are trying the best they can.

    as someone says, once the dust settles and you all start partying, hopefully the fun you're gonna have will out weigh the entering issues.

    WHAT THE HECK?? we got here at 6:00 and there was NO line, and my dad called me at 5 and said there was NO ONE in line. We pulled in and there were the 5th people in EDII!!!!!!

    No one showed up for another 1/2 hour now they are only as far as 4 spaces over from us!! so 8 more rigs and it took 2 hours to park them!! kaos!!!!!!!

    Festvalfan just showed up and she is only two doors down!! how is that busy???

    AND last year they let us in early so they know the routine by now!!

    I got here around 5:30 and rvs were lined up all the way down monroe, parked, not moving because of the line to get in. When I left around 7 they seemed to be caught up with all the early early birds. either way they were under staffed and things were not done yet, thought they had a few more ours to finish up. the winds are not helping matters. lol. so many staff going around having to re-put up fencing that blew over, etc. I will try and post some pics. Feel free to post some pics when you can. this will be fun to watch.
