CCIntrigue...aka Gwen 547 Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 That pork shoulder looks delicious! I was wondering what you do with the crabs too. Thanks for the explanations! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Duane 152 Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 Dang, it looks like the GaDawgFans should change their names to the MacGyver's... They have a gadget, item or utensil for just about anything or any purpose... If they don't have it, then you don't need it.... I want to camp with you guys... Let's recap just a few of the things that I have seen so far.... we have Egg's, and margarita machines, hammocks, jeeps, bikes, bike carts, swimmies, water guns, sand buckets, folding tables, all sorts of cooking utensils, chairs, e-z up's, box fans.... and there is no telling what else we may see before this trip report is done... I can't say anything though, because I carry a lot of things as well. I am too afraid to weigh the camper because I just may find out that I have too much stuff....

GaDawgFan.....Kelly 799 Posted June 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 Wow, what a trip.I always wanted one of those Margaritaville blenders- but they're too big and too expensive to justify buying one for the few times a year we would use it. That pork looks good enough to eat.I miss our crab hunting days. We used to do that every night when we'd be at the beach.Now, when we go, we will only crab hunt one night if we're lucky. What do you do after you catch the crabs? The way we used to do it at the end if everyone has to stand in a circle. Bare feet, and tight, so there are no gaps. Then the crabs get released in the middle of the circle. if you flinch, you're a chicken and subject to ridicule. Fun times.TCDThere's a story behind that blender. I was going to rent a machine for Jason's 40th. They're crazy expensive. I thought, well I could own a Margaritaville for that price. So I do. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But you're right, we've collected some pretty cool stuff over time. Don't hate. Just come to a GG I can attend and what's ours is yours! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Beckers 1,136 Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 There's a story behind that blender. I was going to rent a machine for Jason's 40th. They're crazy expensive. I thought, well I could own a Margaritaville for that price. So I do.That's how we ended up with our "fun stuff" too. Wanted to have an outdoor movie night at our house, would have cost $350 for a company to do it, so we bought a projector for $250 and use it a lot during summer and every night for our Christmas decorations. Same with our bounce house and blow up up water slide, we found good deals and my friend and I go in on 1/2 and just share the bounce house and water slide. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

momof3kids-Yvonne 596 Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 I am pretty sure your neighbors did not hate you. In fact they were probably trying to figure out how to become your new best friends. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

In fact they were probably trying to figure out how to become your new best friends.They smelled it for about 16 hours. We had lots of people walking by. I'm sure they hated us. I offered some, but they probably thought I was just being polite. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
