Event Description

Our annual escape from Superbowl Madness. It will be our usual set-up .... wine, food, companionship (bring the wine and bring or buy the wood). Also, musical instruments are welcome, and maybe we can jam a little.

Saturday will probably bring the return of our culinary potluck/contest with anything eligible that is usually served in a bowl ...chili, soup, whatever.

Party Central will be spot #4.  As usual, it will be rain or shine, and if it's rainy, the Tent of Doom, the Annex of Despair, and possible a few TOD clones will keep us all dry.

The VALUABLE PRIZES this year are quite special. I certainly hope that folks are planning on entering the cooking competition in hopes of winning one of the VALUABLE PRIZES.

Latest 10-day forecast for Rio Vista from Weather Underground.*

Sunny all three days, highs in the upper 60s, lows in the mid-40s.

*Kind of a silly name for a weather service, since most of us want to know what the weather is above ground, right?

FYI, when I was down there in January, the camp host had no firewood for sale. Pick some up along the way or at the supermarket in town.

We are bringing three bundles!

Highs around 70 degrees Fri-Sat-Sunday. Bring your sunscreen!

Here is a note from Scott Persson:

I've reserved site #7, but I'm getting over the flu and my van is still up on racks. I still have some recovery and wrenching to do before I can get out there. If someone needs the site, it's available with about a 50% chance of me showing up for only a part of the weekend.

Corey and I got hit with the flu too, but we're not quite dead yet and *WE* are showing up. We are even bringing firewood and *VALUABLE PRIZES*.

Bring wood.  Bring brandy

Comment by Kathy & Mike Marlow on February 1, 2018 at 5:40am

Will bring 2 bundles of wood and 2 bottles of wine.

Comment by John LaTorre on February 1, 2018 at 8:56am

I'm bringing some wood and also some of those wax firelogs (which I got for free when they remained unsold at a garage sale). 

I hope i'll be bringing my bus, too, but since it's in the shop at the moment, there are no guarantees. If it isn't ready, look for my Toyota Sienna instead. And the tent of doom will be there, too, of course.
