Westies in the Woods

[Fire Lady (Michelle)]

What would we need to stand up in it?! It's just for coolers.

Just thought it would be easier to walk in and get what we need out of the cooler. Whateer i need always end up on the bottom somehow. But we'll use whatever we got. We have a small 2-man tent too that we will bring.

Depending on how much time i have this week i might take the sink and stove out so i can slide my cooler in there i mean its coming out any way.

Yucel & I were talking about food for Westies and we were thinking it would good to coordinate so we all don't bring the same thing and we can all contribute something to each meal (except maybe lunch):

Friday
dinner- chicken kabobs

Saturday -breakfast- eggs
lunch - tuna fish sandwiches
dinner - POTLUCK with Group - bbq chicken

Sunday -
breakfast - corned beef hash
lunch - turkey & cheese sandwiches
dinner - side dish

Monday- breakfast on the way out

Another option could be for each bus to be in charge of a complete dinner/brkfast (besides Sat night). Meant to throw that idea out to you guys Sat, but I forgot.  Let me know your thoughts/likes/dislikes. 

[Beetleboi -Greg-]

Sorry guys, I don't have much money to last me till a week from Friday. I'll do what I can.

[skibumtgm]

how do we want to do this we want to all take a meal so the others can relax till their turn to cook?  or do we want to break each meal down so we all cook a little part of each meal? 

I will see if rose wants to cover breakfast sat maybe with her slow cook french toast or something.   we will of course bring something for the pot luck. 

[skibumtgm]

Ok so rose and i are taking dinner Sunday so take that off the list.

Greg is Matt coming?  need to know if we are cooking for 5 or 6

[skibumtgm]

Also lets get this departure time and location set. i think the last i heard we were meeting at 9am to be on the decline of morning rush hour?  Looking at the map and knowing the group I'm guessing that a good meeting spot could be the Woodrow Wilson Service Area after exit 7 on the NJ Turnpike. This will be just after the on ramp for 206 which I'm guess Celly and Shell will be popping on at and close to 130 if Greg chooses to go that way but i think he would prob be better off getting to 295 or the turnpike. Anyway from there its about a 2 hour drive to the campground so that would have us in there and set up just in time for lunch on Friday which is good because...


So let me know your thoughts. (Map Below)

[Beetleboi -Greg-]

Let's meet at 9am! First dibs on a good spot! Yes Matt is coming.

[skibumtgm]

I didn't even think about dibs.  Should i bring the hammock again will we have room for it?  YAY Matt is coming. **^bana0 **^bana0

[Beetleboi -Greg-]

Yesss love that hammock

[skibumtgm]

ok i will be sure to pack it

[Beetleboi -Greg-]

Did you see the rainbow hammock on the way to the Resturant Sunday?

[Fire Lady (Michelle)]

Yay hammock! Plenty of space... we have a whole field to ourselves!   :jump4jo":

Yucel and I will do dinner Friday night.  So Greg, want to do breakfast for all on 1 day?

I don't think getting on the Turnpike at 9am is a good idea.  I drive that regularly for work and it doesn't clear up until after 10am on weekdays. Greg and I debated 10 or 11 and I thought that meant what time I'd leave my house, but I'll compromise and meet at 10:30. Still gets us there at 12:30 for lunch.

There's a Petro/Iron Skillet at Exit 56 off 295 and by Exit 7 of Turpike/Rt 206.  We can meet there, check traffic and then we can jump on Turnpike if clear but still have option of Rt 206 if it's red.  What do you guys think?

that doesn't have a cold beer in my hand by noon.   &^beer&
