That sucks about the 2nd weekend of Dec being booked for an event :/ That would mean bill and darcy cannot go because she has to work the first weekend. We are going on a big family cruise the week of Thanksgiving and since i just started a new job, i'm the low man on the totem pole, so...
Man, sounds like a good time! I'm going to come down for the next one and show you some real competition ;) jk...but i do want to do the next one, we had a vending event or else we would have been there.
Apparently Bacon Wrapped Bread items are the new hot trend? Potato roll with cream cheese...
haha...the screened room, a blessing and a curse all the same time.
So i just looked at FEC and we cannot book for the weekend yet, but you can book for this time in Dec. So i bet if we check back next week it'll show availability for the 2nd weekend in Dec.
I dont think the screened room is...
@JckDanls 07 I would have said i'd call FEC tomorrow to find out about booking dates but if they are using the florida booking site, they might not know. Woof that's an even longer drive for me then HH LOL
I'd like to keep the December mojo going personally but looks like we need time to find an alternative. I'd like to hear what the group thinks....if everyone wants to push it off to jan/feb i'm good with that as well.
So it sounds like Lake Loiusa isnt a good alternative.
Doing some Map Searches for similar areas i came up with this short list
Alafia River State Park
Little Manatee State Park
Kississimee Prairie State Park
Weeke Wachee State Park
Colt River State Park
Anyone have any knowledge of these?
Lake Louisa seems like a good central spot. Thanks for offering to scope it out @Fueling Around ! Has anyone else camped there? Do we know if spots are close like HH? Good for RV's?
Howdy all!
OK...so some bad news. I just called HH and the ranger told me the park is closed this entire year. He seemed pretty hurried to get off the phone so maybe i'll get a 2nd opinion tomorrow or Monday....
So do we need a new location? Postpone? We started this gathering at Fish Eating...
I started years ago using 1tbs TQ for 3 lbs of meat, now I use only 1 tsp for 3 lbs. I slice the meat 3/16" and add the TQ to whichever of my marinades and let it sit in the fridge for 24-48 hours.
Alright folks....it's time to plan for this year's gathering! I'm especially looking forward to this one since I wasn't able to attend last minute last year (darn hospital emergencies!)
We usually do this event the first weekend of December but i'm going to throw a wrench in the gears and get...
**UPDATE**
This year's gathering will be at Hardee County Lake Park (https://app.fireflyreservations.com/Kiosk/Property/HardeeLakesPark) the 2nd weekend of December, 12/12-12/14.
Highland Hammock is undergoing some repairs/upgrades and are likely closed the remainder of 2025.
Looking forward...
WOW!! Looks like everyone had a great time and i missed it but i'm glad i took the advice of others and stayed home to heal up. CANNOT wait till next year! I'm glad Bill and Darcey fit in well, i knew they would. Glad we added some new faces, hopefully I can meet them next year.
i was getting...
Hey all! Sounds like people are arriving which is good. We just got updates from Miranda's mom. Let the fun begin!
I just got home from the hospital. Been there since Sunday morning. 4ish days laying in a bed does a number on your body.. things are looking good for me but likely won't be able...
Hey all, so bad news on my part unfortunately...I've been in the hospital since Sunday (12/1) and they don’t t have an estimate on when i'll get out 😞
After thanksgiving at my gf's parents house and then holiday lunch at mom's Saturday, i felt like I had food poisoning but it got worse to the...
