I thoroughly enjoyed getting together with everybody and checking out their rigs. Let's make it a habit.

Hey Folks,

We are having a Ft Collins Bonfire Campout party this Saturday Nov 4th.

We are going to a BBQ and start the festivities around 3. It is located on my property which is a couple acres that we refer to as in town country living. We have room for 50 or so campers and lots of people.

If you would like to come, PM me for the address.

Weather is supposed to be nice. It is a full moon. We have some beer sponsorship from locally breweries, however it might be a good idea to bring your own stash too.

Looking forward to getting some local Front Range gatherings going.


Mike

Drat! Not enough time to plan for this one... I always enjoy seeing you and the local Vanagonauts, and I greatly enjoy craft beer... But it's also close to my usual last camp-out in Winston.

I hope you all have a lovely time, and that everyone appreciates RMW's commitment of time and hospitality to our community.

Best!

Mostly Sunny, High 53


Is anybody up for mid-winter beer and Vanagons in the Aurora/Denver/Boulder area?

I can’t make this one, but would love to attend future events. I’m new to this forum, but old to the Vanagon world. We’re all in this together. Shocked

We could do Saturday.

Does anyone have suggestions for great new brewpubs in the area?

We'll be near Denver a week or two in May and would love to attend if the timing's right!

Headed to outdoor expo Friday and Saturday. We’re down to get weird, where y’all headed? Although we won’t be in one of the syncros since we decided to try stealth camping in a 9 ton vehicle Rolling Eyes

Darnit! Tomorrow's pretty full for me.

But if I may make a suggestion, tomorrow is also UllrGrass, Golden, CO's outdoor winter beer and bluegrass festival. It is a BLAST.

Unfortunately I can't make it to that, either...

How about 3pm Saturday Feb 3 at Epic Brewery, just north of downtown Denver?

This may be my last weekend in Denver before moving to Reno to start a new position.

I put this out on VOG as well and have had a few responses. Nice folks.

I'm hoping to have my engine hatch project completed by then; I'd hate to show up with a partially-undressed Syncro.
