What Happened to The Indiana Crowd???

“Are all the Indiana people okay after the storms?”

“All is well in my neck of the woods. We're supposed to get another 3" tonight though. Things are gonna be pretty crappy tomorrow. Sorry to hear about your in-laws Windi. Hope they are ok, and they had insurance.”

“NWI was pretty much spared the worst weather, though chicago got some twisters and lansing got a very mild one yesterday.”

“long live the stormbringer!”

“Long live the dork!

All the new landscaping is still there.”

“Hey All!!
I was on the Adena Trace as well as Golfhiker, Bear Bag and Daughter (10 years old!!) Me and Guitargal went out to meet them about halfway and they bailed after Friday nights rain!!! Too bad, Saturday night turned out great!! We went swimming and the moon was out!! I got some pics to post. Maybe on the next thread.
See ya later.
Randall”

“

You guys okay down there?”

“ummm, cold but ok...i left my stupid windows down and got soaked going out to roll them up...of course it was on a day i got a crappy parking spot”

“Glad everyone survived all this crazy weather. We were in Terre Haute for the big flood a couple weeks ago for an adventure race. The race got black flagged. We had an adventure of a entirely different sort just tryint to retreive my daughter from a friends house and get out of town.”

“terre haute was a mess for sure...my bro-in-law was trying to drive from vincennes to indy, normally a 2 hour drive, but it took him 7 cause he couldn't get through terre haute...finally a state cop told him to follow a semi through some back roads...the semi had about 8-10 cars following him to indy”

“Anyone up for the Deam the weekend of Oct 31-Nov2?”

“I have the same request out there for NOV 8-9. Can you make that? I might be able to this weekend, however I won't be able to get down there until Saturday.”

“I can't the Nov 8-9, I'm on call at work.”

“Okay, let me see if I can get away. Any of the trails here you have not hiked?”

“I'm open to any of it. You post it and I'll show up.”

“Okay, I will check the calendar this evening and post something tomorrow. I never remember but is the Deam on Indy time?”

“yes, EST.”

“Okay, I'll let you know.”

“No can do this weekend. Sorry Windi”

“I have two days off this weekend...I'm not even on call. was going to take a kid hiking but that fell through so what should I do?

I'm considering on doing some wetland restoration work at hawthorn park......FREE LUNCH! but...not sure yet.

“Anyone up for a local hike on New Years?”

“Where windy? I may be up for it :) I was going to do one close to home but if its not too far away I'll join you.

“I was thinking Pate Hollow, but am open.”

“I was planning on a pate hollow overnighter for the weekend (not this one but the one after) solo but if you'd like to meet up there that would be cool :)

It would be fun to get down there new years but I can't be gone for that length of time as mike will need the car (he only has one day off) I was thinking warren woods state park, but thats a bit of a drive for you.

“hmm... possibly although pate hollow is a bit of a haul too. i may just go bushwhack around west side of eagle cr. pk.”

“i bet eagle creek's good and muddy right now”

“Pate would be pretty cold on that peninsula...gets windy.”

“Hey whats the water situation on Pate anyway?”

“Water at the pennisula. Other than that, I don't remember any other sources.”

“I'd hate to think that you would have to trudge thru ankle-deep mud to get to the lake, if the water level is down.”

“is the lake up? in october it was 6-8 or more feet low.”

“I was just gonna ask if the water was easy to get to LOL!...been there done that knee deep mud thing”

“I'll just have to carry extra then!”

““I was just gonna ask if the water was easy to get to LOL!...been there done that knee deep mud thing”


i had to build a rock "pier" to be able to filter some water... i'm sure the lake level has to be closer to normal by now.”

“Since I was only thinking of a day hike, I would carry enough water. Are you thinking of an overnighter? If so, are you thinking Wed-thurs or Thurs-Fri?

“anyone going to be out hiking or boating in the Indy area this coming weekend? I'm looking to get out and wanted to see if anyone else is interested.”

“sorry. no-can-do till late July. Blame NASA.”

“Yeah, he's volunteering for the new "chimp in space" program.”

“That's right... finally I can stop waxing my stomach! GD that hurts!!! LMFAO!!!”

“i dont have a boat, but i could be up for a hike”

“well, windi just texted me that she's bailing on her own call-out for adventure, so if anyone else wants to get out, give me a hollah!”

“Sorry crash! I really want to do something this weekend but I'm swamped with work. However, if I don't get approval for weekend pay, I will be heading out somewhere. I'm not giving them my time for free.”

“what did you have in mind?

i'm kinda itching to run the upper big walnut while the water is good.
