Fort Langley Campground
The weather actually gave us a bit of a
break for the meet so we weren't as soggy as we have been in the past.
We had great attendance with only two trailers who couldn't make it at
the last minute. As in the past for the fall meet we only had a wine
and cheese and quick meeting to go over the plans for the spring meet.
Gail and Kelly volunteered to come up with an activity for Saturday
morning after much pressure but they did such a good job at the May
meet last year we couldn't hlep but conscript them again. The Fort
Campground was able to get a couple of extra trailers in near the group
so we had almost 30 trailers in attendance even through they were not
all registered with us (we had 23 spots).
As I had mentioned in one of my emails, I have put together the past meets into video form ( slide shows with music) Once we can get these onto DVD they will be made available to everyone for cost. 42 sites have already been reserved for next May (Friday the 9th - Sunday, May 11th) and I will put the reservation page up in January.
I managed to forget my camera at home so all pictures are courtesy of Angele and Dwight. We hope you enjoy them.
Angele and Dwight brought out their 17' Boler that they have purchased from Shirley and Randy.
John and Darlene were able to get a bit closer to the group. Next year we'll make sure they're right in the pack.
John and Darlene's Willys matched their trailer (or the trailer matched the Willys)!
Carol and Glenn joined us with their 16' Scamp but were a bit away from the group.
There were lots of dogs camping this weekend...
Gord arrived on Thursday and did the bachelor thing until Leanne showed up Saturday.
Sandy and Doug have been regulars since they started attending a couple of years ago.
Rick brought another Boler out for a test run and managed to escape this picture of his kids.
Barb and Clif brought their immaculate duo out for their inaugural run.
Dwight took the occasional opportunity to sit and relax.
Janice brought her entourage over from Victoria.
Rick did the bachelor thing too. Chris was able to come out for a visit however so we did get to see her.
Joyce and Ken had company too.
Albert and Derek joined us for their second time out with the group.
Don and Barb met some of our group at Demming with their '78 Fibrestream.
"Lifestyles of the Poor and Unknown" - the tail end of the Fibrestream.
Ian and Vicki-Lynn brought their Burro from Pender Island.
Don and Darlene brought their pooch too.
Charlotte and Bunny puller their trailer with yet another fine automobile.
Amber sported a new haircut.
Stan helped us out greatly as usual.
Dot and Don enjoyed themselves immensely.....
and had a good laugh while they were at it.
I spent a lot of time on the phone during this event. Cathy was giving me an update on Ken's condition.
We let Randy and Shirley in even though they've moved to a big aluminum trailer. Randy insists it has a fibreglass tailight panel!
Jessica kept her mom busy all weekend.
Okay so this time we'll take one of Dwight with the trailer....
Gail and Kelly were smiling the whole weekend...
We took a good chunk of the real estate!
There were lots of trailer tours going on at Bunny and Charlotte's.
Ken and Cathy did try to attend but unfortunately Ken spent most of the weekend (and the following two weeks) in the hospital due to an infection after a biopsy. We are very happy to report that he has come through just fine(both the infection and the biopsy) and and will make a full recovery. Ken and Cathy join Jill and I as the only people who have been to each and every one of the meets. Even though we don't see them all the time, they are very dear to us (as are many of our group).
Ken and his family spent the night in the group campground and had to leave on Saturday. They be joining us in the future.
Melodie and Murray brought a whole slew of really cool bikes with them!
The Greissel clan.
Sharen and Simon brought their Casita up from Whidbey Island. We had a great cross section of trailer models!
Terri brought her Trill Tillie out again....
Hey, who let the official photographer take a break?
Steve, Lisa and Jessica brought their Trillium Outback to visit.
The hosts, Craig and Jill have now organized 10 meets!
Another Boler that was just outside the group. This one belonged to Greg.
Angele's boss dropped by for a visit.
Hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil...
Let's dance!
Sweet Pea: Hey you guys, you missed Ed and Jean!
The night after posting the page for the first time Dwight and Angele found four more pictures they had taken. Ed and Jean are no longer missing and we've put a couple in front of Greg's trailer...
Here's the missing couple. Ed and Jean are always good conversation and we enjoy their company immensly.
We also found a picture of Don and Darlene when they came over to visit me and discuss trailer frames.
Rick reappeared (and his faithful companion as well)... people are showing up all over the place!
Greg and Isabel in front of their Boler.We have them on our contact list for the next event so they'll be right in the group next time.
Thanks again to Dwight and Angele, they managed to get a picture of every trailer in the group. There were two other trailers, one Trillium (friends of Doug and Sandy) and a Boler who were camped off a fair ways we didn't get pictures of, but we will fit them in next time (we'll catch you Joan and Kathy).
