Last year we had 3 Barths and an SOB, and a lot of fun. I'm once again looking at December, with the 5th 6th and 7th in mind. I know it's early, and there are 2 great sounding GTG's between now and then, so I'm just putting this out there to see if there is any interest and to get reservation info for you.

Danny, Is Hillsborough a park with a 30 foot limit on coaches or can they accommodate our 32 foot?

Nick, Plenty of room in the area we stayed last year. You have to look site by site, but many are 50 foot sites. A few are shorter, and 33 was backwards because of path access, so we had to forward in. Probably won't take that site again but not ruling it out, since we had a path through the woods to Deb & Ed. All new power and water service in this area. No sewer, but good dump station in the park.

Plenty of room - the only tight spot is the entrance gate. Deb&Ed brought their 35' Regency.

I would probably make it.

All of our sites from last year seam to be available. I think we'll front end in to 33 again. 31 is right next door with a walking path to the river between. Rusty was across the street in 34? and Ed &Deb were next door in 36? Most of these sites handle big coaches. Before you make any reservations I'll check out things if you want, but we should figure on being locked in by mid- July or so. Hope to see a few new faces this year. BTW, Suzy and I and Jim and Patty all have new Gel seats on our bicycles Big Grin
Bill, the sites we stayed at last year are at
28.1457783
82.2389182
I feel pretty confident that this will come together so go ahead and put a pin on it.

I'm gonna grab 36, where Deb&Ed were last year. 37 is a tent only site, all the others in this area are good, but 33 is a front-in. [see my address picture]. Jim & Patty will probably get 39 again. Here's the map.

OK Suzy and I have 36. Hope to see some more reservations made pretty soon. Remember, 37 is a tent only site, but all others in this area are fine. In my address picture, we're front into 33, Ed&Deb are behind us in 36, and Rusty is across the street in 34.

BTW Ed, any particular reason you need the 50 amp site? Maybe five more feet? Wink

Deb's coming and she likes to multitask.

A/C-Microwave-Hair dryer.

Just kidding! I popped a breaker last year for some reason. Could have been both A/C's on at the same time.

50 Amps just works better for us.

Nice to hear you got some of those comfortable bike seats. We are going to bring the golf cart this year so we can follow you adventurous folk with the BEER COOLER

But you've posted over 44 times already...noble97monarch Big Grin

Are you having a problem with the other screen name or are you and Cori using a different screen name for each?

I only bring this up, because it makes it a little harder for our members to know who you are with 2 names like you have now.

If you would like, I can edit your signature profile so we know both names, or, you can go back to posting with just the one name, or, I can change the noble97monarch to something else if you're tired of that name.

Either way works for me and this is by no-means an issue, I just wanted our fellow members, who read this post, to know who they are talking to. Wink

Oh, and welcome back to the site again. I hope you can attend. Danny and the gang had a great time last year. You can read more about last year's event at this link. Smiler

I wondered about that, too, what with the "coincidence" of Spring Hill, FL and Bradford, NH...but under either handle, they're both welcome at the Dec. GTG.

Maybe they can coincide their return trip, back to Florida, around the same time as the Chattanooga, Tennessee GTG.

Did you realize, that out of everyone here at Barthmobile, they may be in a perfect position to go to the 2nd Annual Barthmobile Rally and Get Together in Wales, Massachusetts too?

So, how about it... would you like to make it a trifecta? Just think about the bragging rights! Big Grin

Little did I know there are 4 Spring Hills in Florida. If, as I suspect, you winter just north of Tampa a piece, then you're the closest of any of us to Hillsborough. Hope you can make it.

OK heres the scoop --Cheri & noble97monarch--Corey are a married couple. However while Corey was off on a business trip I was trying to help solve a generator issue and wanted to contact a person on this site that had posted about having generator work done. The oh so charming Mr Noble couldnt remember his password while he was away so he told me to create my own profile. Little did I realize it would create "troubles". Since I always seem to have to do the reservation stuff when traveling thats why I posted and asked about the site. So what should I do now....close my profile or merge the two...happy to do whatever.
We are in the Spring Hill Fl just north of the campground so are planning to attend. Will let you know what site we get.
BTW even though the hubby was the Barth nut I am actually the one that located the Barth that we now own...love it!
As for making it to all the gatherings unfortunately we are returning to Fl in a few weeks as our 5 yo grandson that lives with us has to start school on the 18th. No way am I staying in NH for the snow! Thought about traveling to TN for that meet but not sure we will be able too.
