Prince Gallitzin, Clear Creek & etc. Thread

[Superslif]

Yes, we did see Frank & Chris last weekend at Prince Gallitzin SP. I must have missed the email saying they would be there till Monday. In fact they were on the same loop. I might have rode my bike past their RV a few times. It was nice to spend a few nights with them. Frank bought a 1/2 a buggy of wood from the camp store for our campfires. Frank, I still have what is left here at Clear Creek. Yesterday we moved over to Clear Creek SP. till Tue.

Jim:
I had a feeling that you'd be moving the remaining firewood to Clear Creek. Yesterday afternoon, I saw a storm headed your way on TWC. Hope you all enjoyed the Railroaders Memorial Museum. Just so you know, we encountered no rain last Monday until we left the park. I took the GPS's route home which took us down US-219 south to US-22 west. I'm glad I did this in the day because there were a number of sharp turns on the roads you take from the park to get to US-219. After going both ways, I much prefer using PA-53 between the park amd US-22. Much of PA-53 was newly resurfaced for a smooth ride. Although US-219 is a 65 mile zone, the road surface is awful. We "rode the horse" for much of the time we were on it. I don't think Purrscilla was too pleased with it either.

George:
How'd the driveway campout go? AOK, I hope. I think you got some rain too so I guess you got to see how weather resistant those pull-out beds are. In all my years of experience with pull-out beds in pop-ups, in the majority of the cases when wetness occurred it was because we did something "dumb" to cause it.

Frank,

Its all good! We closed the beds since we anticipated a storm...then the storm never hit, only sprinkles.

I left Clear Creek at 10:30. Slif was still burning that PG wood.

We had a beautiful weekend at Cook last week. Disappointed though; we can't camp @ Clear Creek...we couldn't even drive in with Sadie the wonder dog. Took a ride over there while we were riding around @ Cook. Passed on the Indian Encampment they had going....What a bunch of baloney that was.
It was funny watching them come back into our camp area with makeup and wigs on...heading to the shower house...only to exit with REAL Mohawk hair dews! Got to see the BIG trees for the first time.WOW is all I can say! It was good!

On the Clear Creek Conditions webpage, it states pets aren't permitted in the campground. Who knew?

I'll bet I could sneak Purrscilla in now that I have some experience in this department.

I did see someone walking a dog down the main campground road. I asked the camp host and they said is was OK to walk your dog down the main road and thru the campground to the canoe launch. But you can't camp with a dog.

Yes, Frank we burnt your last piece the last night at Clear Creek.

[Superslif]

Georgie, we had an awesome time at cc with you and the kids. I sorely missed Jodi, though.

Everyone..... I was so amazed to see George!!! When we saw him, he had lost about 55 lbs!!!!! Just this short time, he is looking fantastic!

Gosh, George, at the rate you're losing, you won't have any money left for camping because you'll be replacing your entire wardrobe.

Congrats on your success, though!

Right now I'm back to my 2001-2002 weight, and since I kept those clothes, I will have no present cost to simply change out my wardrobe for now.

But if the rate continues (as I expect it will), a new wardrobe in September is likely.

Way to go George! I'm so happy for you. I'll bet I won't recognize you next time I do see you.

Best wishes for future loss (kinda an odd phrase to say, ain't it?)
