    Hi, Jim

    I had an experience a year or so ago with "Coe" where some friends set up in the camping
    area - - not much fun due to separation of camps vertically as well as horizontally. Traveling
    from one scope to the other over very rough ground (plowed ground) was like asking for a heart
    attack or a turned ankle.

    I presume you meant that the overflow parking lot at Coe is what is reserved. But to clarify,
    does "reserved" just mean there will be pleasant company up there - - all are welcome? Or is it
    a private party?

    Chuck
