Hey Travis! What did the campground end up charging you for our area?

A great big thanks to Travis and Bob W. for all the planning (good choice on the perfect weather days), support, fire, wood, beer, red meat, water, EZ-up shelter from the rain, the grill!, and chairs (I got a Kawasaki green rash on my butt, what the hell?) I'll be telling stories until next year. Thanks also to the new attendees this year, it was a pretty respectable affair until I stripped down at the mountain  |

Awesome Rally! Thanks Travis for cooking, setting things up, and showing us canadians the awesome roads in Maine. The top of Mount Washington was incredible. Thanks Bob W. for making arrangements, sweeping, and making sure everyone was safe. It was great meeting fellow FJers and riding, what an awesome time.

Too many good ones to list them all, But I would like to thank Michael for fixing the grill after the Canadians broke it and.....................Convinced me that my full propane bottle was empty and the regulator went bad   Look at all those FJs at an FJ rally...who'd a thunk? LOL! Great turnout guys, I hope Tellico Plains will be just as good! Leon |

I have a new respect for the old FJ's ability to take a beating. I was convinced at numerous occasions that it would fall apart at unreasonable speeds, but it held strong! The rally was great! Many thanks to Bob and Travis for making reservations and helping with the planning. I felt like a welcome part of the group (even with the age disparity) and I am really excited to go next year. You guys are all awesome, and I can't wait for the Fall Vermont ride! Here are some pictures I took... Look closely at the picture of all the bikes lined up...: http://www.flickr.com/photos/mikeandkindra/6003926620/#in/set-72157627219518273/lightbox/ Travis, I can send you a smaller version of the picture of your bike if you like it. |

A big thank to you Travis and Bob for putting last weekend together. I was glad I went and got to ride with the FJs. Mine has been dug out of the corner and getting it up and running. Planning on being there next year with the FJ, (as well as both days of riding).

You oughta be glad we show up or there'd only been about 3 of you die-hards this year.  (I'll be happy to put an FJ decal and pink stripe on my wannabe-FJ-replacement if it'd make you feel better.) |

So, you got that going for you... Dan Not making excuses,but northern NE,as a lot of the rest of the country, is a forest fire waiting to happen.We were asked to keep things small. The owner of the campground has worked with us to make this happen , so we were more than happy to heed his wishes. |

Eric N
It was close to $60 a night. Thanks to the guys from Canada for helping out with the group site even though they stayed elsewhere. This helped cover the total cost for the site. Eric you gave me nearly double what everyone else paid so you probably should be getting a refund, PM me your address. If anyone else wants their refund, just let me know how many of them $20 cheeseburgers you had and I will let you know the balance  |
