Hi Al
Count Kathy and I in will have to check my schedule after Jan and then will you know arrival dates. Was also talking with Bob earlier in the week and wondering if anyone may be interested in getting together in Jan for the Denver RV show. Typically its the 2nd or 3rd weekend in Jan. Was thinking maybe hit the show and head somewhere for dinner.

Just made reservations @ KOA.com. will see you all there.BH 3580RL, God Bless ya, Al W

Works for us! I may also drag my sister along too. She has a small Nash trailer, and enjoys the shows with us... She's semi-retired too, so will fit right in

CS Rally

rjr6150, Would like to meet the group and have dinner. We live on the western slope and want to meet other Heartland folk!! So please count on Lynn and Jim Graziano from Hotchkiss, Co

Skyguy, We would be interested in Joining your rally in Gunnison. Liable to be a bit nippy that time of year but we will endure!!

Looking forward to meeting you all, Lynn G

We have visited Gunnison, Colorado, every year or two since 1968. Beautiful country and great fishing, especially in the Taylor Reservoir and Taylor River. We will be headed that way, but not until late August or early September.

Can't make the january show, but will be there for the Gunnison rally. Thanks, Al, for the invite to speak on safety concerns, always a privilege to share with other RV'ers on safety. God Bless ya all, Al & Dee Weaver

Hey gang,

Looking forward to attending this rally. Just made all my reservations. Won't be there with my RV as I can't make it work, timing-wise, but still plan to hang out and have a good time with a bunch of Heartlanders I've never met

Jim

I'd sort of heard the rumor last week now thats its official looking forward to meeting you. IMHO this is on great group to hang out with and you'll have a great time.

Don't forget to make your reservations at the KOA in Gunnison! Mention the Heartland RV Rally to get your discount. They may not staff the office until May 1, but you can leave a message and they should return your call!

We have added some more folks in the last week... The Pampinella's are friends of Bob and Marion. The Markey's from NM will bring our first Landmark. Woohoo - we are really getting classy now!

So far I don't have much for food ideas for the Saturday potluck. If you want to mention it here, I will add them to the list!

Thanks - we're only a month away now!

Hi all... I will be bringing Hot Dogs ,Buns ,Backed Beans ,Sauerkart.
And we will need Potato Salad ?, Macaroni Salad? , Coleslaw? .If any one wants to bring 4to5 lb.
Lobster Tails for all that is ok too.ha.ha please let Skyguy know.
Thank You all...Bob..
Safe Camping
Bring what you want.

Kathy and I are bringing our appetites and I believe pork tenderloins.

I spoke with Michael, the asst manager of the Gunnison KOA today (Wednesday). he said all the snow is gone (at least around town anyway). Nice days, still pretty cool nights (20's). I wouldn't worry about freezing, but I sure would have some electric heaters on hand!

They are NOT requiring deposits, but would appreciate reservations if you are planning on attending.

I'm looking forward to a wonderful 4 days - can't wait!! (Arriving Thursday after lunch sometime)

CU there!

Al S.

Brrr....will definitely be bringing warm clothes and plenty of extra blankets!!!!

Gary, Denese, Kathy and I will be there on Tuesday for anyone wanting to come in early. Looking forward to a great time and meeting up with everyone again.
