I'm thinking the the number on the check to the Cancer Society should dictate "best" site distribution !!!

You let us know sorry for delay getting back to you I did receive your voicemail late last night as we have been busy this weekend with our daughter engagement party. I will get back to you shortly as I will have to contact the campground as the final numbers were sent in already and we'll have to see if your site will be available. I will reach out to you as soon as I have an answer.

We're ready to rally! SD washed and shiny. Wasn't going to wash the BH what with lack of rainfall here (Everything is dead or dying. Haven't mowed the grass in 3 weeks and not sure when it will need mowed. It's brown, dry, and crunchy!!!) but I broke down and washed it anyway. We have a strong well and it has 8 weeks to rejuvenate once we leave tomorrow!!!
See everyone at Lake George...

Any member arriving to the rally prior to Thursday the campground has requested not to check in prior to 1:00 as your site may not be available until after that time. Thanks Colleen

For the members arriving to the rally prior to Thursday the campground has requested if you did not check in before 1:00 pm as your site may not be available and you would have to wait in their holding area until the site was free.

There are no pull throughs available, the area dedicated to our rally is large enough for your new set up.

We arrived at the resort yesterday afternoon. Site #19. It is a big park and it's quite a way from the office to the site. Tried to follow the instructions on how to get there. Took a wrong turn and arrived at the site from the wrong side. I'm not feeling good already from back pain and I got flustered and impatient.
On the other side of the road there are no sites and there is a large area where someone could turn around. I decide to do that, still flustered, and although there is a lot of room and I always check the trailer for angle when i turn around, I throw caution to the wind! Take the turn too sharply and don't look for the angle, the corner of the trailer smashes one of the driver side of the rear window, and dents a piece of the cab.
At this point, I'm cursing myself but managed to back in the site without any more problem.
At this point, I extend the landing gear and pull the truck out. Then hit the auto-level button but message says "low voltage" Check inside and batteries say fully charged. Reconnect the truck wiring to trailer and have the truck run at fast idle.and there is no difference. Plug 50 amp plug to shore power and still nothing.
I then decide, that since the coach is fairly well leveled, to open the slides and set it up. Bedroom room is electric and there are no problems opening it but the rear hydraulic slides will not work. Remember posts about breakers and resets. With my back in poor condition, I cannot reach inside the front compartment where the breakers are located.
Called a mobile service technician and after only a couple of hours wait, he arrives and looks in and tells me there is a loose positive connection to the solenoid. Then he also find that the ground connection is also loose and that, in fact, the solenoid is fried. Changed that and $286 later, all is well.
But wait, one of the hydraulic line is leaking at the crimp. He thinks i can probably make it home after the rally (~200 miles). So we'll chance that.
Camping woes are in full autumn colours in upstate NY.
