I would hate to get there early and not know that where I may have set up camp could be an annual spot for an old timer at the event.<br /><br />Also does this cook-off make you leave on Sunday or do they allow you to stay a couple of days to chill out? Sorry for all the questions but you guys are the only onces I know that attend the original cook off event.MsBelindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09035993834877022676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9187463584037488984.post-11856210885250523322009-09-15T23:02:56.809-05:002009-09-15T23:02:56.809-05:00MsBelinda,
Thanks for your kind words.
I'v...MsBelinda,<br /> Thanks for your kind words.<br /> I've never been to the CASI Cook-off, but every story I've ever heard about it echos yours. The behind the store Cook-off is the one to be at. It's very laid back and friendly. You can check in with Delia at the store for early camping. My wife and I always come down a week early and camp behind the store in the chili cook-off grounds. It's no problem. I'll look for you there.Allen Harehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00500590136731959920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9187463584037488984.post-53166438881971865582009-09-15T00:26:58.993-05:002009-09-15T00:26:58.993-05:00Congratulations on winning second place, it is a b...Congratulations on winning second place, it is a beautiful picture. Sorry your wive did not place this year, but there is always next year.<br /><br />I did not know you guys went to the chili cook off behind the store. I have always attended the CASI event but I am considering a change of venues.<br /><br />Last year it was just too rowdy and the police were way too aggresive. Lots of folks camping around me said they were not coming back.<br /><br />How do you like the cook-off you attend? Do they allow folks to get there early?MsBelindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09035993834877022676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9187463584037488984.post-90203100867692333492009-08-31T14:42:04.222-05:002009-08-31T14:42:04.222-05:00Allen,
