Looks like I am gonna get my week long vacation after all.

This will be my first time going to HCBF, and my first vacation since moving to MT in 2002. I have wanted to go since 2005. I am so looking forward to this and meeting all of you there!!

Good to hear you are getting to come Japhy! Last year was my first year and loved every minute of it (besides getting unburnt)! I am coming for the whole week. Probably get there on Sunday before.

I just found out some life changing news yesterday and again I won't be able to make it this year... This ABSOLUTELY DEVASTATED me cause this was the one campout I was trying to make.this year but this just cant be helped.... But hopefully there will be a bright side and it means I will make more campouts in the future.

Attended this event about a decade ago (at Grandfather Mountain- that year they took lots of photos for the VW Bus book)..we plan to camp Wed, Thur and Fri night. Is there any potluck or event schedule?

Thanks,
Andrea

I will be there. It will be my first time going as well. I was packed up and ready to head out last year, but my bus broke down the night before. By golly, this time I am going to make it come hell or high water, even if I got to push Ole Rosie there.

We will be there, not sure when. This will be our FMBC 1 year anniversary since it was our first festival last year! We have been to at least 10 since then but not always in a bus. Can't wait!

Only 112 miles for us, but I think it took us over 3 hours to get there last year and 6 to get home. Ut Oh! This year WILL be better...haven't played dominos in awhile Dixie, sounds like fun!

Looks like Clyde and myself will be missing another year.......

I had full plans to come until last month.. I was volun-told i am going camping in Colorado the week after with my daughter so i can only do one trip... especially after having to replace the motor in Clyde..

I really enjoyed my last trip there.... i even got a new kayak for the morning paddles down the river.... hopefully next year..

Peace,
Paul

This thing has gotten so goddam big I don't remember seeing half of you guys last year. Of course, alcohol might have something to do with it.

Nurofiz I don't think we met you last year either but we were there none the less. Yes, I do think that alcohol might have played a small part in this. Maybe we'll meet you this year.
