Just saw the location, being down the road I would like to at least stop in. Between my wacky work schedule and my son's football games, I won't be able to do the whole weekend. It would be me, the wife, and two boys. I won't know my work schedule until the week of, in order to be able to nail down a time to stop in. Is that all right?

Well that's just great, all these new faces I'm going to miss meeting. It really sucks when life gets in the way of fun.
Woodsman, try to go saturday about 4ish onwards, take a pie and enjoy the food, company, coffee and let the kids go wild!

Looking forward to meeting you and the family.
Can someone PM me the dates? I read the whole thread and unless I missed it the times were not confirmed?

I'm curious about that too, it looks like it's the third weekend in october.
so the definition of a criminal is someone who breaks the law and you want me to believe that somehow more laws make less criminals?

It looks like some of the links in the summary section are no longer valid. I'll update them a little later today.

With the government shutdown, the recreation.gov site is down. I'm guessing that the campgrounds are closed as well. When I get through with work later today I'll see if I can find a number and find out. If it looks like the shutdown is going to last a while it may be necessary to have a back up plan.

I contacted the campgrounds today. They are open for business. I seem to recall that last year when I stopped at the ranger station in Pisgah National Forest and inquired about camping I was told that most of the campgrounds were run as a concession. I guess the reservations are just made through the gov website.
So - the good news is that we are still a go.
Doing a little research......
Is the camp grounds south of Burnsvill, Nc or south?.....directions say north....map shows south off Hwy 80...and the Gov. site is down....
