Julie:  You can add Beverly and me to the possible list.  Whether we come or
not is going to depend on the weather forecast.  Give me a couple of days
and I will go ahead and send you the money for a spot.

The folks who have paid up for sites so far are:
Steve and Sharon
Shirley
Keisha
Randy Champ
Thomas W.
Me
Duncan and Cindy (I believe they have their own site reserved.)

Those who say a check is in the mail:
Dennis and Claudia
Matt and Leslie

Those who sound like they are planning on attending:
Mark Jenkins
Terry
Chuck and Sue
Mike Everett

Thomas W. and Matt and Leslie are probably bringing along a couple friends
too.

Sadly Denis D. says he won't be attending this year, but he says that every
year and then he kindly graces us all with his presence.  So let's keep our
fingers crossed.

For those of you that haven't been before, we have a great time even if the
weather is not perfect. Of all the times we have done this there has been
more times with good weather than those with bad. Shrimp-N-Stuff has indoor
seating and with all the VW friends and great sea food that makes it worth
the trip.  

 

I know that a lot of us have made our reservations with Julie....the rest of
you stop being babies and send Julie your money. We will have a great time
and the parades are fun. Maybe we should have some sort of contest to see
who gets the best beads. 

 

Terry, Randy and I were talking today about crusin down Thursday night to
Sam Houston SP then in to Galveston Friday morning. Anyone else have plans?

 

Contact Julie before she has to cancel the reservations, it's more fun when
we can get camp sites all together.
