What we really need to do is set up a "non-rally" getogether and everybody pitch in and get somethings done for Dave while we are there and then turn over the $ from the "non-rally" to Dave & Mary as a token of our appreciation for allowing us to come do this for them! My charter season is coming to the dead period here in the next month and if anyones willing I'll be happy to meet them there to see what we can do! 270.705.1139

Good idea BK, but hard to get folk together for work in the summer.  Maybe happening in the fall?  Don't have to drive buses....pickups with whatever equipment one may need to do whatever is decided is neccessary?  One valuable project.  Something doable by non-coms. 
If one project could be attended to on one weekend by a group, much could be done. Like lay in the drainfield?  That obviously isn't working.  Long as we get into it before winter sets in.   At a minimum, a pool could be established far away temporarily of course. 
With a good print of the area, most of the planning could be done anywhere.
I'd be a player for a couple days.  Likely be in November....since many of my other dates are full.  Anyone interested?

Just an update.. Seems that back when the power company installed the transformer
for my rv sites they thought they would take the low and easy approach.. They only
installed a 5 KVA transformer. I just found that out this week when the serviceman
was here adjusting the big area lights.

The engineers were here and they should have a much larger transformer installed hopefully this coming week. I can see a need for a 25 kva but they don't want to
install one (YET).. They will give me a 15 kva if I am lucky.

As for actual room for parking... I guestimated that we have enough space for
100 or more coaches if we include the Eastern 10 acres where it is very dark
and quiet but no power.

On the other hand, If you have windows that open it is very nice here at night
with average temps around 63 degrees.. No Air Conditioning required.

I am thinking hard about expanding my sewer system connections but haven't
been able to do much other than think and plan. What funds I have are dedicated
to trying to get through the medical stuff which has broken the bank a few times
already and will be for some time.

I have to have a different surgery in the next month or so to replace my Pacemaker/Defibrillator due to the battery going dead slowly. Probably because
of 4 or more ZAPS to restart my heart while I was in the hospital. Not FUN !

I find that getting stuff done takes way longer than it used to...

Come one come all... Not much to do here... But if you have a bike, 4-wheeler, horse, goat & cart or whatever there are a lot of back roads to explore if you like that stuff...

Dallas and others... I would not officially ask for a camping fee as such. I might ask for a small voluntary donation to help support the place. The only hard cash costs would be for electric & utilities where provided.

Everyone else (general public) ( not bus people ) the base is $150 a month Plus electric.

Right now I am working by private invitation/reservation only and not generally open to the public because I have a lot of stuff that needs to be done before I get a full license and can put up signs.

Email me for more info or my phone number....

Sawdust... Hmmmm...
All I got are tree branches.. wait, I have a bunch of barn type wood that might have
a use somewhere... Maybe a new art form???

I got 2 skill saws, table saw (bargain special) and even some old hand operated saws.
Too much junk and most of which is buried in my shipping container.

Well, Don't know what we could build.. Still don't have a clue where to get funds or financing to build a house or lean-to yet...

Dave....
