I thought about knocking but didn't in case you decided to sleep in a bit.  Even worse, we didn't pull out of our site until 8:40.  Cry  Oh well, we'll make sure there is a next time.
 
A trip to Canada is on our to-do list!  Amber wants to visit Niagara Falls, so maybe that can all get wrapped into one trip.

We had a great time meeting everyone and want to thank podsible dream for hosting the potluck and techntrek for getting the ball rolling on the campground reservations.

"Before we left I walked around the loop again, probably around 8:10 and said goodbye to Chris and Walt, there was no sign of life from Greg & Tracy's site.  Sorry to miss you guys, at least I got to see your 152 from the outside.  You can give me the grand tour next time!"

Oh no! We must have just missed you! We were making tea and coffee and forgot to open the door :(  Thought you guys left much earlier when we realized it around 8:15.  Please knock next time as G & I are both obviously quite forgetful (in opening the door and looking awake) first thing in the morning before our caffeine EmbarrassedTongueEmbarrassed

Hopefully Daniel and Elise will drop by the forum and say HI.  It was quite a pleasant conincidence to have them there at the same time.  We might have to organize a Canadian Roundup as well ;)

A tough slog home for us, too.  What was a 9 hour drive up turned into 13 hours on the way back, although about a half-hour of the extra time was due to a detour into Rhode Island (now we can say we've been in every east coast state this summer).  The rest was traffic jams due to the rain, starting on I-84 west of Hartford, CT.  While some areas like NYC had record-breaking rainfall, amazingly we barely ran into much of it ourselves.

We had a great time, too, we really enjoyed the conversation and company.  On the way home   Amber echoed what I said to everyone, we had a better time than we did with family (at times).  Embarrassed    Before we left I walked around the loop again, probably around 8:10 and said goodbye to Chris and Walt, there was no sign of life from Greg & Tracy's site.  Sorry to miss you guys, at least I got to see your 152 from the outside.  You can give me the grand tour next time!  Hopefully the other couple will check in here so we can stay in touch.

Looking forward to seeing everyone at a future Roundup!

Hi y'all, made back home to central NJ at about 7:30pm. Thru the rain and traffic and wrong decisions about the right roads to avoid the NYC traffic...
So we are here. We are very happy to have met you folks and formed new friendships. We hope you had a good time at our mini roundup and enjoyed the dinner and fellowship last night!
Walt and Chris.

If you guys check in here, we must have missed everyone out at dinner or sightseeing.  My wife and I walked around the loop around 8 but there was no sign of life at either of your campsites.  I heard that someone stopped by our site while I was in the shower but we left for dinner right after I finished.

Hopefully we can catch up tomorrow evening, our group is leaving in the morning to go to L.L. Bean for the day.  Not my first choice of things to see while in Maine, but that was the group decision.  Hope to see you when we get back!

Yea!! We getting excited here, too.
Almost had a fourth that asked about it on the nation forum, but he couldn't clear his schedule.
We'll do it in one stretch, as we're 1 -1.5 hours closer than you, leaving Wednesday AM. Just two of us, no need to coordinate the masses...
Looking forward to seeing that big marshmallow .
