Ok last yr we had a get together with some of the members on this list,
our first one, it went good. So thought I would do another one this yr.
So I am sending this as a special notice to some of the folks that are
set as such. AS we don't want you to miss out.This will be toward the
end of May depending on what feed back i get from this.
I am thinking of Silver Lake Oregon which is about 85 miles from Bend.
  There are two places to camp in that area, one is called Silver lake Marsh
campground which is 10 miles from town, and the other is Thompson Resevoir
  which is just  14 miles from town, same direction just 4 miles from Marsh
campground. Marsh was a free campground, unless they changed it,
not sure how much TR is. Will find out those details later.
Reason i am choosing this area: there is the Cowboy Dinner Tree.
  and here is there website, http://www.cowboydinnertree.homestead.com/main.html
copy and paste, or go to the links file under restaurants.
I thought it would be nice for all of us to have  dinner there,
the steaks are as big as a rump roast. The day of dinner can be
worked out later if we have folks interested. Also if you want
  photos of the steaks go to the photo album named Cowboy Dinner tree,
  enough food for the entire weekend.
So right now I am interested to knowing who would be interested
in haveing a GTG at that time? Let me know so we can make some plans.
And by the way this restaurant only takes reservations.
So we will need to know early enough.
So please let me know if this is something that you might
  be interested in?

Hi,
We are thinking about visiting The Cowboy Tree in Silver Lake, then
going up to Clyde Holiday State Park to meet family. I'm wonder about
taking Country Road S-145 out of Silver Lake, then Christmas
Valley/Wagontire Road to 395 up to 20, then through Burns, continuing
on 395 up to John Day. This is foreign territory to us. We have a 39'
motor home.

Question .. are the roads good? Is this route good or should we go
back to Bend and take 26 out of Prineville, like Microsoft routes us?
What is recommended?

Question .. I know some of ya'll have been to The Cowboy Tree. Is it
worth the $$$ and the extra mileage?

Thanks for your help.

Anne,
As far as i know the roads are good.
you may want to move over to the new group i have started
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/campinginoregon/
as this one i will eventually close down.
I had sent you an invite.
As for the dinner tree well i think it is worth the bucks, you get more food
then you can eat go to the links and click on the restaurant and go to there
website.  for the money i have ate at Tumalo feed which i thought was a good
place and didn't even get half the food you get here.and more money. But
that is my personal opinion.
Like Jaynee said we are having the get to gether in silver lake on the the
weekend after Memorial weekend. camping at Silver Marsh campground. no
hookups, so far as i know it it isfree.
