Yam is leaving Nashville in May, so I want to invite everyone to come and say goodbye on April 23-24. We will be doing an overnight on the Piney River section of the Cumberland Trail. Hope yall can make it!

I might could come on down but I will have a cast on my right arm...I will need a Sherpa.

And I have only said "hello" to Yam once. Might as well say "goodbye" once, too.

Ha! All Wolfie needs is a little help getting the pack on and off. ;-)

I might consider this if Wolfie is coming.
Only chance I'll prob have to meet her.

Is trekkngirl going?

That's right, Stovie! All I need is help getting pack on and off...








and the tent set up, and someone to stir my food, and take clothes off and put clothes on, and make sure I get wiped after I pee...









see? I need a Sherpa...or a really really good friend....

Wolie, did you report this 'arm' thing to the injured reserve thread?
Doesn't count if you didn't. ;-)

You really had me hooked Wolfy and I was ready to volunteer my sherpa services... until you mentioned wiping after the pee....

Well, that is the only way it's gonna get touched. Love it or leave it.

And I don't poop in the woods so you never mind that task.

That is a purty trail. We camped out above the white pine cascade and watched a cool ass lightning storm, followed by the ariel acrobatics of bats eatin skeeters, followed by an awesome starry night. There was also skinnydipping. I'm definatly a maybe.
