“Why in the heck don't the two of you go then? You both need to get your butts out on the trail again!!!!!”

“Laura is signed up.”

“i'm keeping an eye on this one but then again i'm not exactly from your area i guess...i have until the end of march beginning of april to squeeze in one more trip”

“I am heading down on Friday AM, Leaving around 9:00 ish Chicago time. I don’t know where you are at, but I am guessing north IN. I head past there kinda, (65 south). I would have room for two or three if ya don’t mind being in the very back. Might have to tie some stuff on roof though.
See ya later.
Randall”

“She lives just off the IN toll road around Calumet Ave.”

“Randall, I willkeep you updated. Not sure yet. It would be fun though :)”

“SC!!!
Ok I'll keep watching.
I will drive close to you on the way down and back. (I am trying to talk some others into this trip as they pressured me, they know who they are!!!!!!!!) LOL
See ya later!!!
Randall”

“Hey, that's my birthday weekend as well! :-)

I'll keep lurking and see how the weather is as we get closer... :-)”

“WK, are you thinking about this one?...i've got only one more trip in me before the baby and i was wanting it to be a little bigger than this one if people that i'd like to meet keep signing up for this one i just might too”

“Ok, thats it, I AM going on this one. Mike is still undecided. He likes to wait to the last minute, I dont. So, I'm going and if I have to, I'll just celebrate mikes b-day the day before with him :)

I would appreciate any ride I could get, I'll help pay gas :)”

“Hey Spirit! How's it going? If I can get away this sound like a good trip. I'll have to wait till later to sign up. We have to hike together again.

Take care!”

“:) YOU TOO! I look foward to it :)”

“SC,
You can ride with me if you can leave around 10:00 Friday morning. As it stands I still have room for 2 people.
See ya later.
Randall”

“Yeah, I'll make sure to take friday off :)

#&%!$ work, backpacking is life :D”

“SC,
Ok that makes room for just one more in the van!!!!!!!!!!
See ya later
Randall”

“Had to change my status. I just checked that calendar and realized that my daughter will be visiting from MI that weekend and we have theater tickets.”

“Dhutch,,
Sorry to hear ya can't go. Maybe next time.
See ya later.
Randall”

“Sure, I would like a ride, Randall.

We'll have to think up some way to celebrate(????) Mike's B-day royally. Huh? It should be interesting.

Actually, haven't hiked with Mike yet so it will be a first for me.

Spirit - send me an email with details as it gets more set up, okay?”

“Wanderfool,
Sure you can ride with us. That makes the van all full. Where would we pick you up?
See ya later.
Randall”

“It's a good possibility for me... Brookville Lake is only about 35 miles from Richmond, so it's nice to have a hike in my backyard.”

“then it's settled, we're hiking in golfhiker's back yard ;) i just might have to make this one, it'd be good to see ya again GH”

“Gh, ya better make it :)”

“Wow!!! GH, that is close, I used to live in Connersville. I moved up here two years ago. I was on the trail this weekend and am posting pics concerning some questions. Man , the weather was kicking down there and now I am back in the north and we got 11 inches of snow here. Check out the pics if ya want to see some of the trail.
See ya later.
Randall”

“i'm down as a maybe...this is the weekend before my b-day so my family may overrule me with b-day plans”

“Hey, it's YOUR bday, give yourself a present.......”

“LOL, i agree but it might be bad manners not to show up to your own bday party ;)”

“Hey Wanderfool,
I have tried that number a couple of times and have had no luck catching ya.
If you are still interested in the ride, gimme a shout as I have someone else who is thinking about going.
See ya later
Randall”

“Try e-mailing her Randall.

I am going to see about making this one. When we meeting on Saturday?”

“come on down WK, and talk CB into coming too...if you two and SC come that'll knock out 3 TTers that i want to meat on one trip”

“meat?

I will try. If I can make it, I may split from work on Friday night and stay with my sis in Indy for the night. I could probably pick you up Sat morning if you want.”

“i know what i typed ;) that'd be cool though i might head out friday night”

“Okay”

“i know what i typed ;) "


Thats kina scary...maybe I should pass ths one up, id hate to end up as dinner...

“Hey WK!!!

Hope to see ya there!!!
See ya later.
Randall”

“My email is swissfem1@yahoo.com. I turn off my cell when I'm not in the car. Sorry. Saves on minutes used.”

“You got mail!!!
See ya later.
Randall”

“nobody's posted on here in a while so i thought i would :) ...is everyone still planning on going that signed up?...the indy star had a story about a helicopter crash this weekend and as an insert to the story they had other helicopter crashes in indiana's past...i was unaware that there was one in brookville lake in '02!!!...one man died...this should make for some good campfire stories and light sleeping ;)

“We will be camping within 1/4 mile of the site where the crash occurred! Just a note here, the name of the site is "Wolf Creek". Long before that it has been known as "Haint Holler" LOL No kidding.
See ya later.
Randall”

“Im still planning on going, and so is wanderfool :)”

“I'm in for both nights. Might bring a hiking newcomer with me, but nothing's been confirmed. Thrifty, you need to change from Maybe, to Definate....”

“sorry, i have comitment issues LOL”

“I still have not heard from WF as far as riding down is concerned. Have you heard from her? At this time I stll have room for one additional person.
See ya later.
Randall”

“yes, ive heard from her. She will still be riding with us :)”

“SC,
That’s great. Sooooo, how am I picking you guys up? I know you live close to I 80 and I 65. Is there some where close to I 65 that we could meet?
I know we still have a lot of time to decide; by the way, my son Ryan is riding down with us to spend the weekend with his mom. She lives about ½ mile out of the way to the trail head. Well think about and get back.
See ya later.
Randall”

“anybody have objections to a me brining my dog?...she's a sweet lab mix that wouldn't hurt a flee, golfhiker can vouch for her ;) if someone is allergic or has issues w/ dogs i would have no problem leaving her at home”

“How long of a roasting stick for that dog am I gonna need timecline?”

“That's about all I'm good for, vouching for dogs.... I say bring em on, but she carries her own food.”

“I think that would be fine and there are no leash laws in affect there.
See ya later.
Randall”
