Anyone up for a trip with me this weeken d?

“oh well, no response..... ;op”

“techntrek - I haven't met you yet. Are you as pretty, and female as Ruby? ;-)”

“I second DC!”

“I guess I'm pretty in a manly sort of way!

:-p”

“I'm a looking for a trip this weekend - but tennessee's prolly too far away for ya...”

“duh.... meet in the middle..... District of Columbia ;op Actually I'm going to be in Vermont anyway, so you won't even have to put up with me.”

“Well, Murfreesboro, TN is a 12 hour drive away!”

“I think Shenandoah is very close to all y'all”

“Front Royal (north end of park) is about 2 hours from me. Haven't done Shenandoah in a few years.”

“There ya go! Not sure if I like the North, though. And I think Tennesee is practically 2 hours from the South...”

“I'm in nashville, so anything in VA would be at least 6-7 hours for me. I think.”

“Maybe look at the Southern Section of Shenendoah Embear. That would be more in the middle.”

“Yeah. How slow do you drive, embear?

And why the frik are you going to Vt, ynami?”

“BM - not very. But i have car issues right now so wouldnt wanna go too fast...

BTW, who is techntrek? Any of you DC'ers interested?”

“Can we make this the following weekend so I can come? :o(

Vt.... cabin, woods.... say no more.”

“By yourself, ynami²?”

“no”

“Vt is overrated......where's the cabin, exactly?”

“uh huh...


Well we expect a trip report...”

“not entirely sure”

“I'm me, of course. :-)

I've been around here for about 6 months. Been hiking since I was 8 or so, on and off, and got back in full-throttle about 5 years ago (I'm now 32). Been slowly trimming weight over the last 3 years and now I'm down to around 13 pounds base weight for the summer, although I could trim that down to 11 if I left some luxuries home. I guess that puts me in the ultralight crowd. I'm the webmaster for the Baltimore area Sierra club and a few other web sites. Me in a nutshell.”

“i was sort of hoping to get out this weekend. where in TN?? smokeys?”

“Gemini - I was thinking about the Plott Balsams trip, but now everyone's bailing - and I've been out to the smokies so many times...

I'm in Nashville - your in SC? Wherabouts?

techntrek - ok. so you sound kinda normal. LOL!”

“Well techntreck I'm in the ultranotlight club.

Y2 - you going all the way to Vt just to........actually, I'd probably go further.”

“actaully, there's a group of people going, mountainb kiking, Kayaking, hiking, grilling, drinking, should be fun. :o)”

“make that Kayaking”

“waka, waka, bada, waka ”

“< funky 70's porn theme playing >”

“bow chicka bow bow”

“I thought it was boom chicka bow wow.”

“Make what Kayaking, the Kayaking?

What exactly is Mountainb kiking?

Sounds Anti-semitic....”

“the i and the k are v close together.”

“LOL bit, y2.”

“embear I'm in Columbia, but I have no problem meeting in the smokeys... I just need to get out. hey...I have a ton of smokey guide books. LOL”

“Smokey's? You mean Shenandoah, no?”

“nope, I mean "Smokey's". Close for embear and only 4 or 5 hours for me too.

or...yeah...we can figure out the plott balsam trip together. I am game for either one...”

“Dang. I blame ynami.”

“I'm looking for some young lasses for a trip.”

“I'm sure they'd be flocking if I was going. Flocking!!!!”

“Or is he at the "chick black hole" level by now?”

“ha, I wish”

“Damn Brits, lose the Empire and steal the chicks!

I really need to work on my accent.”

“Chick B.O. - repels chicks
Chick DEET - chicks cannot find him, and therefore do not notice him
Chick Post-it - chicks notice, then immediately forget about him
Chick Spiderweb - chicks become entangled, but easily break free
Chick Weak Attractor - chicks are somewhat attracted, some of them more easily than others
Chick Magnet - All chicks drawn to him, can only be removed by another Chick Magnet
Chick Superglue - Chicks become stuck to him and must be removed surgically
Chick Cetacean - Draws chicks in, keeps them for three days, then spits them back out again
Chick Neutron Star - chick drawn irrevocably into his sphere of control, only seen again as degenerate matter
Chick Black Hole - chick drawn into his singularity, never to be seen again (until we discover a way to sense chick Hawking radiation anyway)”

“There was a guy I played rugby with, they called him the Prince of Darkness.
Women would disappear with him into the night and not be seen again.”

“Wanna come up to New Jersey? [Pause here for ridiculously uncontrollable laughter] No, but seriously, a bunch of us are getting together to do an overnighter on the AT near Delaware Water Gap. Details here.”

“Checking out that trip now...”

“Gemini-

I'm game for the smokies, I just cant go to the actual park - I will be bringing my dog and they arent allowed in ntnl parks. Is the Plott Balsams going to be a lot of bushwacking?”

“embear, do you have a road bike. If so I know a good route we can take.”

“nope. just a mountain bike.”

“you ever ride at Hamilton Creek or Lock 4? I am still learning on my mountain bike. To many trees for me to hit..lol”
