Not sure about that weekend. The following weekend is Maple's car camping trip that I'm signed up for and camping fee paid.

How'd I know? We can hear his screams all the way down here. I mean, every night?
Geobeet

but he insists!
Twinky Toes

I know. Before you he had to pass out in public. It was embarassing. We had to tell everybody to ignore him, he's just looking for attention.
Geobeet

awwwww :(

I heard about that story - something about getting excited about hot dogs...

Seriously - his name should be Calamity Nasty :)

Twinky, my dear. Where the hell have you been? I answered your last inquiry about a week ago, telling you that I don't have an e mail addy for you and you fell silent. Now, you want the trees to respond to you. You must contact us, Twinkle darling, so we can catch up and get on the same page. Unfortunately, that weekend before our car camping trip is Micheal's 11th b-day party, so we're out on that one. But, call us at home or call the Leaf at work, ok?

Hey Treebeard - I tried to call Maple the night before last but the phone just kept ringing - figured someone was on the computer.

My post have been sporadic because of work - been very busy the past three days with a big report - by the time i get home at night my hands hurt and i don't even want to look at the computer. As for calling Maple at work - don't really like to call out from here - today is just extremely slow.

But yes, we should get together - I had told Maple about Montauk next weekend - but it didn't seem it would work...

I'm in NYC - and its about 3 hours from here (as long as your not driving in a blizzard - then it takes 6)

pinchot is a 24 mile loop, not very demanding, but rocky. one nice view, scenic streams, wetlands, hemlock, rhododendron, hardwood forests. nice trail.
