I'm just going to come out with this;
I was not aware that Robert is running a business and that we were his customers until after we arrived at Jug Handle. Well after. Anyone else given this impression as well? I thought Robert was just another TC RV.net member who was volunteering to organize an informal gathering. It didn't occur to me that he was supplying margaritas on Thursday night, coffee/juice/bagels on Friday/Sunday morning, smores/jalapeno popcorn on Friday evening or that our $150 funded those things. I was lead to believe he was supplying the entree for the dinner Friday night and contributing pancakes for a breakfast but that was all.
I also never knew this site was out there on line and I can find no mention of it in this thread;
https://firelightadventures.com/camping-adventures/19-truck-camper-rally.html
This site includes a link to this forum.
I feel pretty stupid for not realizing the true nature of our relationship with Robert from the beginning and wonder if that is my fault or was deliberate.
Fair question to ask. If by business you mean something that makes a profit or we do full or even part time the answer is no. Yes, we do have a website but that is in the hopes that someday, maybe we could make it into more than just our passion that it is now.
Nothing was intentially hid and the link you referenced was created specifically for this rally and was also the initial link that was posted on this thread and used for taking reservations. About two thirds of everyone that attended actually RSVPd through that link. I later changed it to the PayPal link because some people where having issues with payments processing and it was easier just to use PayPal instead. The emails I sent updating everyone had our website URL in it as well and I sent several emails so it was right there for you to see.
Sorry if you feel mislead but it wasn't intential. The website makes it look like we are much more than what we are but I've been building websites for decades and know how to make it look professional. Someday maybe it will be a real business but right now we are lucky of we cover our actual coats not to mention the time we put in to plan everything.
