Mean, thanks for the good laugh. No, I'm definitely not who you think I am. To be sure, I took a look at some of your pics from an earlier trip and didn't recognize you.

Sorry, man. But hey, if the opportunity presents itself, I'm still up for a Hoosier backpacking adventure.

I'm heading out in a few hours. Stomper has realized that the winery is only 6 miles from the trailhead. We can stumble our way back if no one is in any condition to drive. lol

windigrrl,

I'm too lazy to look back through all of the posts, but wanted to know are you camping with us Sunday night?

MG,

I'm planning to pick-up some sandwiches, and cold drinks when I meet you Sunday at New Chapel, so don't bring anything for dinner.

Well either way you would be welcome to come along. Sorry if I freaked you out. Watch the trips page. We hoosiers are very active. Infact someone else was just trying to pull together a trip on the Adena trace. That is over on the IN/OH border! Check the "Adena trace info" thread.

I don't think I should be bringing any Knob Creek on this one Stomper. I need to be out of the tent before noon. LOL! I may sneek something in for Saturday night, but it wont be much. Do you ladies like Chinese? I think I may treat for dinner on Saturday. Sound good? The only condition is that you take care of the trash on Sunday so I'm not carrying it with me. ;-)

I just saw this Salem. Windi will be with us on Sunday night, and leaving on Monday some time. Stomper will be leaving on Sunday afternoon. Thanks for the grub! That's awesome! Saves me some weight!

BTW, I still have not heard anything from mohawkman, so at this point I am assuming he is NOT coming.

Mohawkman, if you are coming please post something asap. We don't want to leave you behind, or with out water etc...

MG,

Sounds good. I'm assuming that the fire ban is still in effect, so they'll be no smores by the campfire for us. LOL

It's ok, Salem. We can still hold hands and sing Coomb-bai-ya in the dark. LOL!

Actually I still need to call the ranger station. I'll be doing that in the next hour. Then I'll post my findings. Windi, and Stomper are already on the road. They are doing the Delaney loop, and hitting up the local winery. Freakin lushes. LOL!

Hey MG,

It sounds like Windi and Stomper are going to have a much better day than us poor bast@@rds who are working. I'll check the website later this afternoon, and then that'll probably be the last time.

I just hung up with the Delaney station. The ban is absolutely in effect through the weekend for the entire KT.

I don't think it's so bad really. I guess it'll be fun to cook with that flameless oven on Monday night, and the up side to not having a camp fire is not having to build one, and then make sure it's out!
