“That's not my long weekend. I only get one Saturday off every five weeks. That is not one of them. Now I need to check to see if I have any annual leave remaining. I'm taking a week off in October to hit Blackwater Falls State Park in WV, so I'm not sure if I'll have sufficient time off for the Rogers trip.

Oy.”

“I'm still in Blalock!
EnS - you wanna head south then I can drive ya on this one.”

“ENS and Y2 need to head West, not South!”

“Damn that compass!”

“ENS what about the Balsam 6ers trip this fall???”

“cool Y2! I'm still trying to put that trip together Blalock, but I'm not sure when I can do it yet. I definitely want to hit up Mt. Rogers though.”

“I'm calling this a maybe for now

Vee shall see...”

“I'm headed West tomorrow, first to Mt. Hood's summit, then on to Mt.Ranier. How many people were signed up for the Balsam trip?? You and Ricky could come down for that as well!!!”

“Hey Georgie, I could pick you up @ the airport, if you wanted to fly in. ( ya right)”

“that sounds really cool Blalock. Let me know how it goes. Call me from the summit. lol”

“Ok, but only if you take a shower first... :P~~~”

“Yea Phantom Sloth, I'll have to ask my room mate, but I'll e-mail ya back tommorrow!!! Let me guess who wears the skirt in Your oops her house. What goes around comes around, ole buddy!!!”

“Hey man, don't be hatin' just because I went to the Adirondacks and you didn't...”

“Wow, Phantom Sloth, when you tell someone that you are going to do something you either, A) , do what you said you would or B) be a punk, like yourself, and do nothing that you said that you would.
