Invasion 2018

Post by firecaptain13 »

The dates for invasion 2018 are set... July 18-20, with the 19th being the pot-luck and raffle. I've been in touch with OMR and they are excited to show up for the dinner. Dave from the KOA has set aside the usual sites 42-51 for us, but any open site is game if you want. Please make your reservations early. Dave will not be able to hole the sites as long this year, so Christmas is kind of a deadline. Please go to http://fsjinvasion.org/app/ to log in your space number and to view a map. Please do not abuse the edit/delete functions. Also go to the fsjinvasion.org site to just poke around

I was updating my spread sheet for Ouray today. I keep notes about food, gas stations, etc. I am already looking forward to 2018. Bring it on!

Welcome. We missed the gig, the people and the food! Granny kitty is probably near the end of her journey. She did not do well yesterday. I have never lived with a cat for 17 years before. <sigh>

Aug 8 update: Granny kitteh was put to sleep yesterday. RIP Una Noel Shabooboo. You were a very loved furry badass in my life. No need to respond to this folks. Just saying. Thanks -

I now turn this back to the regular scheduled Ouray FSJ Invasion programming...

As of right now, Sarah and I and the boys are going to try to come back in 2018. All the deluxe cabins are already taken. So, not sure what we are doing to do for lodging yet. If anybody decides they don't want there deluxe cabin, let me know.
Priorities
1. God
2. Wife ( Sarah )
3. Children ( Lane & Dirk )
4. Work
5. Jeep

Man it is hard to keep them in the right order!

Hatchet Jack I think 2 weeks is only reasonable. 1 week of Ouray trails and Another Week of hardcore stuff with the j10 in montrose.

Kevin, that's awesome. 47E is a killer spot. I am glad you are showing up early. It will give you plenty of time to get 'into the groove'. We will have to do a dinner at maggies kitchen at some point. And the scenery on the trails is fantastic.

PSA: Does everyone have their KOA site reserved yet? Most of you know the gig and Dave only holds them for the group for so long.
