Start time: late lunch, early dinner? 3-4 pm?

Reasoning: lunchtime seems too early, dinnertime seems too late (because I'm sure some people will just be there for the day)

Between the people camping, the people who are coming for the day, and the people who are thinking about coming, this seems like this could be a huge event. What's your guess- 20, 30, 40, 50, more than that? I'm in the category of will/can come if certain things with the family sort out in a certain way. Does the park have any limitations we should know about? I mean, for example, things work out and I take the drive over and they say, sorry- there's too many people back there. Is that possible?

My teeth are feeling a little bit better. I will be able to chow down, I think. Though I might have to cut some things up into small pieces. ;-) I have new rubber bands to wear in addition to new wires, and without the bands it does not feel too bad, but when I put them in, it's more painful. (Don't tell my ortho, but I may not be wearing these extra bands for most of the weekend, LOL.) The general soreness is tolerable without the bands, and with soft foods (though not liquids).
