Petaluma KOA Trailmanor Rally '09

As of today 23 TMers are registered for the TM Rally at the Petaluma KOA on Oct 2-4. This means both rows alongside the rec hall are full and KOA has comped the full rec hall for our exclusive use.

KOA has extended the deadline another week or more for any really last minute TMers to participate in what is shaping up to be an exciting weekend.

We made reservations today and were added to the group reservation even though it is way past the cutoff date. Plan to arrive 10/1 evening and depart 10/5. Looking forward to meeting everyone.

How many reserved spots do we have now? I'm really looking forward to it! Was the pool still heated last year on the rally dates? I sounds like it's going to be hot that weekend & we'd enjoy a splash in the pool.

Should we bring anything special? Are there things you'd wished you'd brought last year and didn't?

We're bringing our own BBQ, but it's small.

Any ideas as to what to bring for the extra dish for Saturday dinner? I could bring along our bread machines & make garlic/parmesan breadsticks...those always get good reviews.

As I recall the pool was open last year. We did not sue it, but it was just DW and I. I also seem to recall it was mostly kids in the water, not the adults.

I do not recall wishing I had brought something along last year, but I keep pretty much all my important stuff in the TM.

I keep that dumb choo-choo domino game in the TM. DW would enjoy playing that. I'll go for a walk or something.

As of today the trailer is washed outside & clean inside; still in the process of painting one of the rear bed supports. The primer went on yesterday, tomorrow it will get a few more coats, and a few more coats on Wednesday; on Thursday we'll put both of them back on. DH fixed the hole under the trailer, behind the wheel well, that our 2nd blowout made with triple sheets of sheet metal. I think we have our domino set somewhere out there too...now I just have to pack.

I just got off the phone with Matt from Custom RV, I was asking about having some work done on our TM while their service tech's were at the rally. He said that they are bringing both a TrailMini and an Elkmont to the rally!

Well we washed TM two week ago and because it's 500+or- miles we will wash when we return. But refer is on (0800) and water is ice (1430) and following advice on this board. TM is open and using propane so fan is running. Our grandkids live only 4 or 5 miles from the KOA so we will be in and out of the rally. But look forward to seeing folks we met last year.
PS: Custom RV told me he would have a vary sharp pen to give me the exacet price I need to get a Elkmont. LOL
