Thanks, Nelson. The folks at Rural Hill just sent me the link for the campground (I have no idea why I couldn't find it myself...Doh!!). They said that as of today they still had plenty of tent sites avaiable.

They also sent me info on the longbow competition, which is going to be held Saturday at 1:30. For anyone interested this is for longbows only...no recurves. No way will I be abe to pass this up, and I'll be wearing my new t-shirt with the MacQuarrie archer print on the front.

Barclay...we're too tough to sleep at the Marriott, but thanks for spending your money there as I have a few shares of Marriott in my portfolio

I'll be there at the Fraser tent. I believe we'll be doing another Food-sharing thing with Douglas, Wallace and I think Maxwell. Not sure of tent locations yet but Fraser will have a double-tent so we'll definitely be in that section (left side of the field as you walk in the main entrance). Hope everyone can stop by.

Hmmmmm....was that an insult? LOLOL We'll see when you come knocking on my door to come in from the rain and the cold. LOL I do backcountry camping, I do primitive camping, I even do trailside camping, but for some reason I've never been able to abide campground camping.

Will we get to see Mrs. TH, madbagpiper and senor P on this trip?

All but the Mrs...she has to stay behind to attend a wedding.

No insult intended...quite the opposite as Master P is a bit of a weenie when it comes to camping in cold weather. Hopefully it will warm up a mite before the games! I know what you mean about campground camping, too. Seems I always find the spot closest to the generator / crying baby / barking dog / obnoxious know-it-all (yes..even here in the SOUTH).

OK...got our wrist bands and campsite confirmation in the mail today, so we're all set. I'll be at the archery range at 1:30 on Saturday. Other than that, I haven't a clue.

Well what do you say to meeting around 11:00 at the Clan Wallace tent?
I will have a chair camped out there. We can get a group photo.

Bill, will a cheering section bother you during your longbow competition?

I am also planning on attending one of the whisky seminars at
either 3 or 4 pm.
Anyone who wants to attend just let me know.
We can compare tasting notes.

Sounds like a plan!

Not a bit! I shoot weekly at our archery club, and there is always a lot of good-humored ribbing and general foolishness. If it's too quiet, I get nervous.

Is there an admission fee for this?
