Northern Virginia get together/BBQ at my place

[Wiredawg]

BG Dummy and Rammin On:

Sounds good. Phil Stuart says there's a campground about 8 miles from his house. I'd be coming in on the 23rd, stay the 24th and head back home on the 25th.

Hay Phil: Wut's the name of the campground so we can make some reservations? Would be real nice weekend.

Wiredawg

 

[Rammin On]

Phil ...

I'll be attending your marvelous event ... I'll have my RV in tow ... soooo can you suggest a campground near-by? What can I bring to help out with the chow?

Wiredawg ... and anyone else hooking up your spare home for this event ... . we should all try to get the same campground ... should be fun!

I'll be heading up there on Friday the 23rd ...

To those of you that will be towing your RV,the campground is only about 8 miles or so away from my place. Here's the name and address of it:
Lake Fairfax Park
1400 Lake Fairfax Dr.
Reston,Va.
Phone# (703)-471-5414

When those of you towing a trailer get here maybe I can show you where it's at,that way no one will get lost. Just follow me and I'll show ya!It's not far at all. Let me know a time frame when you will be together at a certain location close by and we'll hook up.

Phil

 

[Rammin On]

Thanks Phil ... . I think I've parked the spare home there last summer for a few days.

Wiredawg ... what time do you think you'll be in the area? We can meet up . .

Keith

 

[Rammin On]

I made my reservation at Lake Fairfax Park campground . . I told them there would be a number of us coming. They will try to put us all in the same area if you tell them you are attending the "truck rally" if you already made reservations . . give them a call back and tell them you are attending the rally, that way we'll all be together. Life is good!!

[Wiredawg]

Hey y'all!

The missus and I'll pull into the camp ground about 1200 on 23rd.

Phil: Any idea how many are coming? Wanna make enough beans. If I make too many, y'all bring tupperware to take some home. #ad

[Phil Stuart]

Wiredawg
so far the head count is about 21. That's not including the spouses or significant others that may be tagging along, for a safe bet say about 35 or so?Just a guess.
Looking Forward to it!

Phil

Phil: Sounds great, I just met Iceman this morning when he brought me one of the tailgate graphics at 24v tailgate graphics and he is the first TDR member I have met in my area. I would like to come on the 24th but would need directions. You are not that far from Martinsburg.

Yes, directions!!! Or an address, I can find it I'm sure. And how early, it seems like I will be steaming the crabs myself, if that's OK with everyone. They will be better that way. I am bringing everything I need. How many coming don't like crabs??????

Folks here's the address to my place in Vienna:
2509 Rambling Rd.
Vienna,Va. 22181

It's right off of I66 west in the Oakton/Vienna area. We live on a culdesac and there is a 26'travel trailer parked in the driveway. Sorry if It's not real specific on the directions,but it should be on Yahoo Maps. Hope this is O. K. We're in the process of selling the house and things around here have been quite hectic lately.


Phil

 

[Neal Cassady]

Just a heads up. Watch your speed when you get to Vienna. The local Vienna police keep a close eye on things and run lots of speed checks. I know quite a few guys who got tickets for 28 in a 25, 38 in a 35, 48 in a 45 etc.

I hate having to type this but the place I get my crabs from says because of the limited number of crabs that he gets this time of year from the south he WILL NOT sell me bushels. So Phil let me know what else you need or something we can bring!!

I have mapped the route, beginning on I66 west of Vienna. See this page for directions and maps. http://dodgeram.org/tdr/vienna/

There are also directions from Phil's house to the park, and from the park to Phil's house.

We plan to camp at the Lake Fairfax park tonight and saturday. For the BBQ, we are bringing large batches of pasta salad, macaroni salad, marinated, and peanut butter brownies. Sue tells me that if we have to bring it back home, I am in trouble. Hope everyone is hungry!

Hey folks,

I got the permission slip back from the school behind the house and it was approved. So If the need arises and parking is tight we can park over there in the side parking lot and just walk thru the gate that's around the corner into my back yard.
At least this option is open for us. I have a feeling that there will be quite a showing of members. This is good!You can't miss the house,It's the only one on the street with a realtors SOLD sign on it. This will be the last hooplah here anyway. We are moving at the end of April to Culpeper county.
Me and the wife are excited and can hardly wait!
Dave Fritz, Thanks for posting the link to Yahoo Maps. I just don't know how to do this kind of thing and you are a big help!

See you on Saturday #ad

Makes for real easy clean up! Just leave it for the new owner.

 

[Wiredawg]

Hey y'all

We're still cummin (ha ha) but not with the 5th wheel. I gotta pull into a field to get it out and the field is muddy and has standing water. Gotta cook those beans a couple of hours so we'll be over around 10:00 on Sat.
