WooHoo The PA Grand Canyon in September!

“.........................WooooHoooo........

"A drive by WooHoo" : )”

“She would see right through it. She wants to go to the dinner/show at that playhouse in boiling springs. So at least I'm getting that nice flat section done on the AT with this one.”

“very true, very true”

“I'm so ready for this trip. Bring it on ;)”

“no snow capped mountains and glacial lakes though... :(”

“ENS, ya sh*t! Stop peeing in my Cheerios! :P I'm just going to tape a picture from the summit of Eiffel to my forehead...maybe I won't notice the difference. ;)”

“Me Too, ever since getting my @## kicked in the snow, I'm looking forward to a nice fall walk.”

“the view from the rocks at WRT is plenty nice : )”

“I wonder what fall weather feels like after this summer. Feeeeeew It has been hot!

I can't wait to go back either. I am really looking forward to this trip.”

“Wasn't hot in Banff! We had sleet and below freezing temps at night. brrrrrr You're going to Maine soon, right? I'm sure Mother K will have some chilly winds for ya!”

“Argh...I can't go on this trip. :( I completely forgot about a concert I'm going to in MD on that Friday night.

grumble grumble grumble”

“You know, this trip is officially becoming the Jinx trip, only because I had to bump it up a weekend because of stuff that got changed on me. Now half the people I had can't go.

Maybe it's a sign...”

“Green Monkee is going to the concert too ~ so he'll be a no. Unless he changed his mind about the concert...hmmm...need to call him.

I think it is a sign...dunno what sign though.”

“The sign say's = reschedule for a fall trip !!”

““Argh...I can't go on this trip. :( I completely forgot about a concert I'm going to in MD on that Friday night.

grumble grumble grumble”

Merriweather????

Stop in and say hi??”

“MarkO ~ Yeppers...Merriweather. Going to see Jack Johnson on the 9th. We are staying at a hotel about 1/2 mile from the pavilion. Nothing says "good concert" like being within walking distance! :p

Where abouts are ya? Maybe Saturday we can meet up. MsKatiebear & her friend, Green Monkee, BroodX and his brother and I will all be there. :)”

“Hell yes, y'all can stagger a half-mile after the show!!

I live in Towson, just a few miles from I-83 and I-695.

Maybe we could have lunch somewhere.”

“I can stagger farther if needed! LOL ;)

Lunch would be good...I'll keep in touch and shoot you an email with my cell number later. I was hoping maybe a nice Saturday in Inner Harbor or something...but I haven't mentioned it to the rest of the group yet. :)”

“Oooooo yeah, Inner Harbor!!

It would be cool to go to a real deal mom & pop Italian place in Little Italy just east of the Harbor.

The Inner Harbor has a bunch of corporate restaurants and big attractions.”

“Ugh...you guys are killing me...”

“Dam! Forgot about that concert. I'm out.

I agree with CrazyPace :) Reschedule”

“...Or we'll just have to go twice :)

(Not that there's anything wrong with that...)”

“Not at all.

So when are "we" going again? :P”

“Hey Ya still in for Giant Ledge LMG?”

“That's one GIANT LEDGE for man and one GIANT LEAP for mankind.”

“LOL @ MarkO

Your right PS, there's nothing wrong with that :)”

“Over on "the other side" we were considering this as a post-Thanksgiving hike, heading out on Black Friday . . . and ifin you kids hike as well as you drink then we could burn of the Turkey and share some holiday cheer.”

“I'll keep my eyes open...”

“LMG, are you staying at the Sheraton? I stayed there a couple of years ago to see Jimmy Buffett at the Merriweather. That 1/2 mile seemed like forever after the pre-during and post concert party! Take a map & compass.”

“spikehiker ~ Yup...the Sheraton. You think my GPS would be okay? Alcohol + compass = trouble. I'll end up in Nebraska somewhere.”

“Thanks for the heads up...”

“I'm out! I will still be in St. Louis handling hurricane claims. :(”

“Alright folks, this is a really tough decision for me, but I'm going to have to bail on this trip, for a number of reasons, including our new gas schedule and my 35-mile-each-way commute to work.

If anyone wants this trip, send me email (address in profile), and I'll be more than happy to turn it over to you.

See y'all around another time...”

“Bail ? Dont need no stinking bail ! Reschedule for winter trip!!”

“Good idea!

I won't be able to go in September either but maybe in February or January....”

“Who knows I MIGHT even have snow shoes by then LOL”

“November??”

“Possible. Vee shall see. How about January and the snowshoes? Remember, the original trip was in March with a foot of snow...”

“I got the email, and now see the same msg. on here. Is this trip officially dead? I was planning on making it. Anyone else still up for a trip? Even if it isn't to the same location, I'm still up for a trip.”

“I will still be in St. Louis on storm duty, so I won't be able to make it. I hope you guys still get to get out into the back country!”

“I'm still up for a trip, I could go for something a little closer if possible. Maybe the Pinchot or the Catskills would be ideal.”
