  Palatka is easier.  Go through Palatka and stay on 17 South. About 8 miles or so, there will be a stop and go traffic light. Road sign says Welaka to the right. Turn right, that is Hwy 309. Take it through Welaka and right on down through Fruitland. Don'T blink in Fruitland. You might miss it :D

 About 2 miles South of Fruitland, there is a fairly sharp left hand curve. RIGHT AFTER the curve, there will be 4 Propane Ball tanks and Foam balls, all paimted BLUE. THAT is Riverwood RV Park. Turn in there and cruise around. The office is at the end of the road, on the River.

 Let us know yer schedule and we could meet up at the campground. We will be sawing another 2 weeks in San Mateo, on the Widow's logs. Then, we picked up 4 sawing jobs around home, and we have some mods to do on the mill, so we will take it home, to Sebastian, for a couple of weeks.

FDH, Apr 16-17 is fine with me, or any time after that. Since you seem to be "hosting" this auspicious occasion, I think you should have final say on the date.

Has anybody heard from BigdogPC?  Last I heard, he had to move his mill :'( and he ain't been seen since. ???  He was the one who suggested this thing, to start with, so we oughta do what we can to make sure he can be there.

Now they're on this page too. :D

Prices for RV's with 50 Amp hook-up are $25.00 per night/ 2 people.

 There will be 4 seperate units available, ranging from RV's to Mobile homes. Prices are $50.00 per night/ 2 people. $10.00 extra per person, over 2 people. On these units, a $100.00 deposit is required and refundable if the units are left clean, as when they are rented to us.

 They are looking forward to having the group, and I suspect that the setting will be attractive to visitors in the future.

 NOW, who's bringing what  We have access to a Pig Cooker outside, and there is firewood, if we cut it. No big deal. Even OAK
