I need to think about warmer weather. I'm over winter.... Rolling Eyes

I'm guessing it'll be on Fathers Day as usual which is June 16th this year

I think I am going this year. Its about 300 miles from my house so I need to sort out the details. I want to drive my oval but I might not be man enough, and I might drag it behind my Jeep. Not sure yet. Laughing

I don't want to rain on the party so early but, whats the word for bathrooms this year? Are they closed again due to us destructive, chaos causing, hell raising, havoc wreaking bunch of VW squatters?

If they are closed, two friendly suggestions to help with the show:
1. Add more Porta-Potties and lower the Saturday night camping fee
2. Leave the bathrooms open all night with an attendant and leave the caping fees as is

Both are simple and would go a long way to improving the overall mood and feel from last year, which was an un-welcomed one

I always give the bathroom attendant a healthy tip. I'll do it twice if they keep them open at night.

I know cats are... just ask Clay and Mary.

Jeff has brought Rufus, Andrea has brought Zoey.

If you're animal is low key then i'm sure there isn't a problem.

I thought last year was a great show. This was later in the day, but you can see lots of buses are still there.

Drive it! We can meet halfway and roll up together. I love this show because it's Father's Day and I always get to go.

If you guys are driving, dragging or towing your oval windows, I'll bring mine too.

*edit* maybe
