Title: Belleplain? Anyone interested for weekend of 10/20?
Post by: kvbug (karen) on September 14, 2012, 06:26:36 am
I know you're all probably about all camped out for the season with BBTD coming up,  but was wondering if anyone had any interest in going to Belleplain   @campfiresmiley    the weekend of 10/20.

Just trying to get some feedback before I decide to put the trailer in storage for the season.

Sounds good to me! I can't make BBD this year, was hoping for a campout in October.

JoAnn and I are going 9/21 for a shakedown campout but we would also go 10/20 to Belleplain. We also have the FYBO in Dec.

Well, Id have a 9 year old with me, so I don't know how much "creepy" I can do.   I don't need screaming nightmares  afraid%   next to me all night long..  #@rofl3

Jack, that's great about JoAnn going camping with you! I bet you're both excited.  Good luck with the shakedown next weekend.  Do you bring  a generator, or try to boondock as best you can?

i know exactly where it is in the Old Duch Cemetary.

Its a pretty cool town that lives off the legend.  this is a huge statue in the center of town near the cemetary.

and during halloween this guy rides around but we didnt get to see him since he only comes out at night.

Now I would personally LOVE that because I'm into ghosts, hauntings, haunted places, etc.. but Matthew.. not so  much.   17gif

Looks really cool.

yea i have not seen what they offer at night spooky wise cause the whole town looks slightly creeply like the movies.  awesome views of the mountains and the hudson.  The old duch semetary has tours we just walked it.  the rockerfella estate borders the grounds pretty cool area.  during the holidays they have that guy just ride around so there are sightings in the area not real spooky.  i will do more research for next year.  i think salem would be a fun location to check out all the witch trial stuff.

So you're talking about the Old Dutch cemetery in Tarrytown NY and Salem Mass, just so we're clear?   :confused04:;    #@rofl3

not sure if its tarrytown I thought it was sleepy hollow I was in but yes Salem mass is on my list to go.  if you want creepy though we should camp some old civil war spots like Gettysburg.  I wonder if martin has any re-enactments coming up we could tag along for.

They say that Gettysburg is one of the most haunted places around!  afraid%  http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://s3.hubimg.com/u/74866_f520.jpg&imgrefurl=http://becauseilive.hubpages.com/hub/Americas_Most_Haunted_Gettysburg_Devils_Den&h=785&w=520&sz=48&tbnid=EYQd6fXIKFPQ9M:&tbnh=83&tbnw=55&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dgettysburg%2Bghosts%26tbm%3Disch%26tbo%3Du&zoom=1&q=gettysburg+ghosts&usg=__VF3PUatDn-Yy_vO7kZFas51iP1Q=&hl=en&sa=X&ei=5jlTUMXIJZG09gSGl4C4BA&ved=0CCQQ9QEwBA


 Yes we'll have to think about those for next year, because distance will take planning.

I'm still hoping for Belleplain though, because it would be my first big camping trip with my trailer.
