And I'm READY

Nick

Hey...and don't forget :
Saturday evening is the Great GTG Grill-Off. We'll supply the grills - you supply your own meat and grill-it-yourself. We'll have enough grill space to handle anything that ever moo'd, clucked, oinked or brayed....veggies too if that's your thing. We're also asking for a side dish to pass - enough for 6-8 folks. With the number of attendees, THAT should make for lots of vittles for all!
So far, here is who has reserved grill space :

Bruce and Kathleen, I have changed my plans and will be arriving thursday, my brother is coming with me and we are leaving the dog at home.

We will be cooking on the grill, and will bring a side dish.

Debbie and I are arriving sometime friday night. I hope not to late. We're leaving after work on friday. Debbie's sister Faye, is in from Ca. and will be meeting us there.
so I guess it's 3 adults for us and 2 dog's

thank's
scott

The three of us will leave on Sunday, I have a family commitment in the afternoon...
we will also bring a dog, aka the fuzzy huzzy...

Corey and I--and 4 legged children-arrived at Cherry Hill today about an hour ago. We are in a temporary site until our Barth site becomes available.
See everyone soon!

Who else is there... are you the first???

I do believe we are only Barth's here. We walked down to "Barth Alley" and no Barth's there. Most of the both sides were empty but of coarse our space was occupied. It will empty out tomorrow and Corey will try to scoot over from his show in DC to move us. If not we will move on Friday when he returns.
Cheri

we are leaving in the morning see ya Wednesday.
lenny

We are back in the USA and are wondering south to DC. we also would like grill space Sat nite. see you all wed. Tom and Nancy Johns

I'm not sure if we'll be able to make an appearance at the DC GTG but I've been reading many previous posts and have seen many references to go-karts. There is a great indoor go-kart track in Dulles, VA not terribly far away. Allsports Grand Prix. If you all are as go-kart crazy as it seems it might be worth a drive out there for you all. About 35 miles away from the Cherry Hill Campground.

We have four 3 sites left on Barth Blvd.

1411 ~ 1408 ~ 1404 ~ 1402

Cheri,
You are the first to arrive and will be there for a few days before you have a few fellow Barthmobile friends showing up on Wenesday. Then it just rolls along right on thru the weekend. If you look above you will see who is coming in and when.

Thursday nights special feature, for those who have arrived, is that special southern chili served by Nick and Donna. It is our understanding that Nick has been busy working on this down home recipe for the finest chili you ever ate for weeks now. Its like a fine wine....nothing before its time. I'm surprised if he is even letting Donna in the kitchen while he is hard at work for this special treat...

Don't forget late afternoon/early evening on Friday is the D.C.-GTG Open House/Wine Tasting event. Hopefully all the coaches will be available for viewing by others, well if your around that is. To make it a more mellow event, each coach will have one or two bottles of their locally made or favorite wine set out at their coach, maybe w/ some cheese & crackers. It is truely your choice if you wish to participate. Those who are able to walk the entire coach line and still find their way back to Barth Central will be treated to a campfire that will be going for the balance of the evening, in case there's any unemptied bottles left.

Nine folks hanging around and grillin' Saturday night so far. Bet there will be a few more before its all said and done...

Keep sending in those updates! I'll update the lists above until Thursday, 'cause then I'm on my way !!!

It's NEVER to late to join us! Tell 'em Lee---
........We'll Leave The Lights ON!!!!!


Oh yea, and Lee was kind enough to leave his cell phone number back a few postings ago. Might be a real good idea to grab it for the trip in case you get close and need those final instructions as you are getting close to landing at Cherry Hill Park.
See you all there!!!
