As we all sat down together as a family at Crown Burgers. we all have decided that each person, or couple, plans the Barlow Reunion each year and decides what to do for all of us and the rest of us would just go along. We all decided that it is MY turn to plan the reunion for the summer of 2008. So, I am going to plan this and we all do this (even though Karen comes or not next summer). This is what I decided to do, so here goes, we are going to rent one RV from Cruise America in Provo, Tony brings his trailer and we are going to the Skyline or somewhere in Ephraim Canyon. It will be on a weekend in July somewhere. So the trip is on whether you like it or not. Just remember, each of you get a turn and you can decide whatever you want to do when you get your turn. So, I choose this. I know there is like 75% in this family don't like to sleep in tents and that is why we are renting a RV. We are all helping pay for the RV rental except Tony's family because they will have their own. Karen and Rob, since you are good cooks, I choose you to be our camping cooks for the whole trip. So plan a food schedule and we all will help you pay for the food. Tony has a gas stove outside, or you can cook over the fire, or you can cook on the RV stove. That's your job, Grandma and Grandpa Barlow, your job is to entertain all the kids, Becky, your job is to watch all the dogs and make sure they don't fight. Mike and Laura, your in charge of all the drinks, I don't want Diet Coke, I want fruit punch or lemonade but you can get Diet Coke for everybody else and Tony some Mountain Dew. Tony and Shelly, you are in charge of your own toys and you decide whether or not you will let anybody drive the buggy around and stuff. Maybe you can take us to places on your Bronco. I am in charge of the trip plans. This should be fun. We can go on hikes, go fishing at community or somewhere, maybe Pete's Hole, eat good food, enjoy the fresh mountain air and the scenery, and sometimes sit in the RV and watch movies and play games. We are going for 2 nights and the RV rental is $525 for three nights plus $96 for gas. We can go for three nights if you want to because we have the RV for 3 nights but we will plan for two nights this time. So, that is it, we are all doing this trip, no exceptions.
