Wow - thanks for all the kind and generous responses! I'm sure I will be calling on a number of you to sort through all the great details out there on a Wanderlodge. There is no doubt that such a close-knit community is valuable when making such an important purchase.

Hey Ray,since your going to be a new owner,and your a new member of WOG,we want you to come to our rally over in Ga.
There will be no charge (since your new!) except for your campground space.
We have a blast,cooking,eating,drinking a beer or two,and talking about birds!

Hold on,the phones ringing.
Hi John,whats that?
Theres no charge for anyone at the rally?
Its free for everyone? Except for campground fees?
Ohh,OK,good nite John..

Errr,Ray,its free for everyone,my bad!

Hey Randy, Not an owner yet but at least I recently tried to help one in SC - am I eligible to come to Pine Mountain and meet with you guys? I won't eat your grub nor drink your beer, just want to get to know Birds from the pros.

[Rob Robinson]

Mr Hoseman you are entirely welcome to come and see, meet and eat. Wannabees visiting rallies is the single best advice we can make to prospective buyers. There is nothing like seeing and touching birds and talking with owners. If you bring a tent you could swipe the title of TENT BOY from it's present owner Larry Dill.

[Randy Dupree]

hahahaa! Robs right!
we have had guys come and sleep in a tent,in a "camping cabin'' or in their SOB,other brands are allowed.
The food is awesome,I bet you can't come and not eat!

[Rick]

I was going to try to not eat but then remembered where our site is this year, next to the club house. Don't have that much self control.

[hoseman]

Tent boy - that is freakin hilarious! Been called alot of names but Tent Boy is the best yet. Larry, you owe me one to take your name.

Thanks for allowing us to interact with you guys at the forthcoming rally!

Wife won't do tents - been married 32 years - one night of which was in a tent - thunderstorm came about and we had to sleep in the car. A terrible experience by all. Nope, no more tents - that's why we want a coach - but I like my new name anyway.

So when you see some idiot walking around, looking confused with "TB" on his hat, that's me.

[Randy Dupree]

whos next?

[mynavion]

After following this thread and seeing that we may have "tent visitors", I want to point out that Pine Mountain CG where the Rats Rally is being held has some cottages and "Yurts" for rent plus even one Airstream trailer they rent. So for those wannabe's who want to attend but don't like sleeping on the ground, there's no excuse now. Rent a cottage and join us!
