We arrived just shortly after 3PM today!

Didit & Lu and WVAvalanche & Mrs. WVAV beat us here! But we had to make some more stops for raffle items  >:D

Intimidatoruag & Family pulled in just a bit after we did.

Got everything unpacked and things ready to set up in the morning before registration!

Lets see who arrives next  >:D
 
Well after a hour on that last 15 miles of the Parkway we checked in about 5  pm today. Thanks for the warm welcome everyone and it was great talking to members that we haven't seen in years!
 
Checked in this morning before everybody headed out for Gatlinburg. Staying off site. Glad to meet Ian and family, looking forward to meeting everybody else thru the weekend!
 
Had 3 from Travel in from Tennessee today that took my breath away. Had been 2 years since I had seen them but I think everyone was shocked to say the least.
Hopefully someone will post up a pic soon

I was more than shocked! It may have been the highlight of my weekend having you and trAV there at the same time. It definitely kicked up the nostalgia, even though I wasn't able to go to Nationals in 08. I can't imagine the hard work that you all put into it! if 4 days kicked my butt, I couldn't imagine a whole week.

You guys are the best, and such a great inspiration. Thank you both for such an awesome weekend!


And just to prove that trAVelingman did, in fact, come!  >:D

:love: :B:
 
I'm just kicking myself in the butt I missed this.  :E: :E: :E:
 
Hugz was one of the first people I was able to meet Friday,  and I was rather excited when he introduced himself, he made me feel like I had been right there with everybody all these years...

And I was pretty speechless when Trav ran up and said hey at dinner, it had been such a long time, made me feel right at home... He's the reason I'm a member here today as he brought me thru the Middle Tennessee Avalanche Club back when I got my first avy years ago...

Really wish to have gotten more time to get to chat with these guys over the weekend as well as the other great people we met but hopefully far from the last time we'll get together...
 
We made it in on the 23rd about 11am and left the 26th after the breakfast. Got home last night about 9pm after a couple side trips on the way home.
