We just sent in our reservation request. Osoyoos, and the campground, are so nice we decided to reserve for a whole week

PS: We received our confirmation only minutes after we sent in our reservation request yeah!

[Iowa Dave]

And can one of the locals post on here you phonetic pronunciation of the town of Osoyoos.and the Okanagan Valley wouldn’t hurt either. I think I know but I was wrong once.
Thanks
Dave

oh-sue-yus (Last part is "us" with a "yuh" in front)


oak-a-noggin



Thanks. I'm here all week. Tip your waitress.

When are you going to cross the Mississippi there Bruce? Happy holidays to you.

[Iowa Dave]

Thanks Bruce, that’s what I’ve been using for pronunciation. I give my waitress a tip every week. It is “ Don’t bet on me coming home “ then she gives me one “Don’t bet on me being here”

Strange stuff...I tried to send a very short video from my iPad with how the two words sound.
After waiting a while the short video had not uploaded so I cancelled the post only to next see my video now attached to Dave’s request.
Tried to post the video again and it looks like it does not like something that is taken via an iPad. O well...it is spoken like in the last post.

Never having met any of these fine folks, I would appreciated some IDs. Thank you!

[cpaharley2008]

Sorry about that, in the top photo is myself and Iowa Dave, across from us is Dave's wife, Rita next to BC Nomad, AKA Bruce, who is fortunate enough to live in Osoyoos where the rally took place.

These are links to all the pix I saved from 2013 and 2014 Escape Rallies. I've tried to make them available to all. Let me know if you can access

Thank you. And all I gotta say is there is way too much laughter going on here.

Looks like Kilroy was looking for a couple of happy guys to stalk!

[Eggscape]

With the shake up in available early delivery dates this last week, we managed to get one that will allow us to attend this years event...with a trailer! Just got off the phone with the camp ground and we’re in.
Something others that now will have an Escape in time may want to consider. Keep in mind that ETI will hold your trailer for 3 months (longer if you pay) so you may want to do the pickup and make the event all in one shot. Great time of year to camp in BC.

I can’t seem to find our info from the 2017 rally.
Wish we could be there again this year.

I'm planning on attending since my date was moved up. See you there, Eggscape! Guess I better make a reservation today.
