4-7-13 update: I just confirmed with Ranger Chris that we are all set and a go for this year. He's excited to host us once again.

NEW THIS YEAR:
We are announcing the "Big Blue's Adventurer Award".

It's easy. This year, we'll note the miles on your bus in a spreadsheet. Next year, in 2015, when you come back to Bus City, we'll note the miles again. The one with the most miles wins each year.

Also Schoolhouse owns 30 acres across the street and a private beach just for the campground. It's just a five minute walk down the river trail. So bring your swim suits!

Bringing my son for our first camp out together... Will trade some home brew for good campfire stories!

Comment by Carole & the 'YesWeCanCamperVan' on May 16, 2014 at 10:03am: Andre, I need to look out for you ) I love home brew and have lots of stories from driving my 71 Westy across country from coast to coast twice. Can't wait to meet everyone. My first time camping with this group. Hoping to get some tips on camping - I might do lots of driving but I know very little about how to camp well!

Comment by Doug Samba on May 16, 2014 at 11:57am: I'm heading out there pretty soon, going to take the Bodega Bay route.

Comment by regis101 on May 16, 2014 at 4:12pm: Ain't gonna happen. Take lots of pic's so I may live vicariously through you.

Comment by Carl on May 16, 2014 at 9:57pm: Very sadly, I will be missing Bus City this year... just got back from a trip down to LA, and Monterey, and next I am heading out of town on Sunday on a different journey. Hope you are all having a lovely time. Blessings. ~Carl
