Ohio Valley Truck Camper Get together ----- June 14, 15 2013

My wife and I went to our first truck camper rally in 2012 with this group, in Ohio.We have been going to rallys with Mike Tassinari and his group for the last few years. We just got back from the hot air balloon festival in RI.There were about 30 Truck campers there. We traveled 550 miles to get there from western PA.It would be nice if there was a more local group(to me) to also attend rallys with.

Hi and greetings!

Yes, the group is still sort of intact. A few of us email each other now and again. There was a get-together last month,
with the word being spread by email. I don't know why it wasn't posted--we were never an exclusive group, the more the merrier, we felt. The danger was of not having enough people, never too many.

Anyway, if you are interested in seeing who is still interested, post on a thread called "Ohio Valley Truck Camper Get-together" and see who replies.

The group held pretty regular spring and fall get-togethers for about four years. Then interest dwindled. We had to stop going for the past couple of years because of various family complications. We are hoping to go camping again this fall, and I was planning on posting it, but I can't guarantee that that will happen.

Look back to look on previous posts to various "Ohio Vally Truck Camper" threads to see who were active. The ones I can remember off hand are CDL2 and SPOTT. You can PM them. If you want, I can probably find another couple of names for you, if you'd be interested. I just can't think of them now.

Anyway, we all always had a really good time. Anyone was welcome. On Saturday night we would have a pot luck dinner. Sometimes people stayed through Monday. It can't hurt to try to revive the spark!

Is this group still active?

Thanks, Bruce!

Great pics Paulette, thanks for sharing.

Peter and Marcia, we're sorry you couldn't be there. You're right, it was a great time.

Hi everybody!

Marcia and I are really sorry that we couldn't make it to see old friends and make new ones. It sounds like everybody had a ripping good time.

Marcia is rehabbing a house that has to be ready to rent on July 1st and is overwhelmed with work. I was going to come but ran into a nasty problem with my jacks--the camper is half-way up and I can't get the electric jack system to activate. I'm exploring various solutions, none of which have me cranking the damn things down by hand.

Spott, thanks a lot for the pictures. We're looking forward to the ones Paulette will hopefully be posting.

I'm going to try to add the pics I took at the rally, so if someone could give me a few hints about how to do it, I'd appreciate it... it's been a long time since I've put pics on here.

We had a great time. Always good to see everyone, and really enjoyed meeting all the new people.
