I am gonna be in the neighborhood of the cabin next week & plan on getting some pics of the inside.  Just remember there are also 2 lofts, pull out couches & lots of space for tents or RVs.

Thats great Doug!  I can reserve a bedroom for ya if that makes it easier. 

I was thinking about what to make for dinner on Friday because there might not be enough time to smoke up some bbq.  I could smoke up some chicken cause that doesn't take to long if its not a whole bird.  I was also thinking about making up so teriyaki kabobs.  Of course I make my marinade & glaze from scratch & its always a crowd pleaser.
 
 I will bring the Lang and a bunch of Hickory and there will be 3 of us (Hopefully that is OK). My GF and her son would be coming along. She is a major tomboy!! Looking forward to this. We can bring ribs and ABT fixins if you like. I can do about 15 racks on the lang but I think that would be overkill. Maybe 6 racks and a bunch of ABT's...

Either way on that. See what others think. Love kabobs and I love homemade marinades and glazes. I am already hungry.

No problem at all with 3 of you coming.  I am sure your girlfriends son will like the place too.  How old is he cause I might be bringing my 12 year old nephew.  I love ABT's & the only bad thing about doing this in May is that none of my jalapeno plants will be producing.  I have 4 raised beds & one is dedicated to peppers only!  I will go ahead & add rice pilaf to Friday nights menu cause I know everyone will like that too.  Gonna bring some different kinds of beans, not canned, to cook up & I will bring stuff to make corn bread.  I am going to notify my family that I may be in a bbq coma if I am not back on Monday :)
 
 
Her son is 14 and will have a blast I am sure. Bummer on the Jalapenos but we will bring store bought. Anything people would like to cook we can throw into the Lang as well. The pig pit sounds interesting but we would need a whole lot of folks to pull off a whole hog. As for the BBQ coma I am looking forward to rolling out of the place with my own BBQ coma. How many folks do you think we have now?

Doug there were 4 others that expressed some interest in this thread.  I know many of them probably don't check this forum on a daily basis.  I think we should give everyone on this forum about another week to reserve a spot at the cabin.  Go ahead & let your friends know about it but just tell them there may not be any room to sleep in the cabin.
 
Doug no need to wait.  2 1/2 months is not really much time to get people to schedule a 3-4 day trip cause of work & stuff.  Bottom line is that I am already inviting people I know personally & this is gonna happen regardless.  This cabin is a beautiful place & no matter what I will be there probably a day earlier.  I have friends locally that would not pass up the opportunity to hang out at that cabin cause they know how much fun it is & appreciate the scenery.  Just tell your friends to bring a tent or camper unless they are cool with crashing in the great room or in the lofts.
 
I have to admit that I am stunned with the lack of enthusiasm for this gathering at a beautiful cabin, on a river, with a mountain starting right on the other side & not costing anyone a dime to stay there.  Oh well I tried!
 
Maybe if we just keep bumping this it will get more attention. I am all in on this one. I would have thought more folks would be too but hey...
 
Alright I talked with my buddy JB and he is gonna check the dates. As long as it doesn't conflict with the all star race he should be good for coming up. I also thought maybe if the thread was changed to something like "Blue Ridge, VA weekend Q and get together May 17 - 19."  might get more people to check it out. That way it's a planned event not a who's up for doing something. Just a thought. I am personally VERY jazzed about this.

Also what do you think about menu items? I will bring ribs, ABT's and maybe some pork shoulders or maybe a prime rib. What about beverages? Amy makes mean pecan bars so might ask her to make some of those up as well.
