“I just see a lot of pairings and people bringing their husbands. I'm unpaired for this event and I don't have a husband to bring. I don't want to feel like a 17th wheel.” ~ nogranola

If you're a 17th wheel, I'm a 16th wheel. I'm okay with that, are you?

Nobody will ruin my last potential hoorah in the east. I intend on being a happy drunk. :p

Are you leaving the planet, MsD?

hehe.... Just maybe. ;) Actually, some might argue that I left the planet long ago.

I can't make it Sat, sorry. I'll try to make it for a few hours Fri night.

As for the bushwhack, (1) pull out your OLP map; (2) follow the blue blazed Sharp Shinned Trail down to Rock Run (going counterclockwise on the OLP loop, it's a trail with faded blue blazes on the right; (3) follow Rock Run downstream to the OLP.

Awesome scenery, many cascades, particularly at the junction of the two branches of Rock Run- two chasms, deep pools, waterslides.

Please treat this special place with respect.

Maybe Richb can lead it.

I'm afraid the Chilimeister and I are out of this trip. I was sooo looking forward to it, but we just cannot swing it at this time..

I think there's a hole in the boat. Everyone is bailing.
nogranola

They just know it'll be no fun without me. That and they're all trying to bail before lyra does.

Damn, I was looking forward to seeing you and Chili and again, Nurse Goodbody. Take care of yourselves!

My people I know at this shindig just diminished down to 3. lol

Without Chili who's head will Lyra go upside?

Will there be any music at this event? I'll be bringing my harmonicas if there'll be a guitar to jam with.

I vote for going upside MarkO's head.

Not to fear Doolittle. The Boneheads are still in and they'll provide more entertainment than you can shake a bent and busted trekking pole at.

well, if gojo is going and bring his two puppies... maybe we will find out if "it boils" and someone may yell "red rocket!!!"
Mr lyra

Oh.... #&%!$. I know 4 people. I forgot that Rich is going to be there. :o

Now, if lost soul shows... Well, then, I'm at 5. ;) I'm starting to see the light again. :D

On the plus side (I guess that depends on whose take), I'll be there and I am not offically signed up.

I don't have any tasty bears, but I do have a case of Yuengling Black & Tans on ice in the cooler. Woops, that make 20. I just got thirsty.

Newbie here, I should be up sometime Fri afternoon.
My buddy Bob bailed, he thinks it's too wet.. WTF????
Got the permit for site C.
Do we have a fire permit for the big fire ring at site A?
I'll bring some Lienenkoogle Sunset Wheat up.

I have site A.
jackstraw

10/25/07

You drink four at a time Bruce?”

Today, yes. It was a long hard wet day at the ole grindstone. I'm looking forward to a weekend of R&R and some horizontal hiking for a change. I assume the hiking tomorrow afternoon is rain or shine?
Pennsy
3:37:49 PM
10/25/07

Woops, that make 20.

Apparantly with that grammar, I did indeed chug 4 at one time.
Pennsy

FYI
I am drinking only beer this weekend.
Mr lyra
4:11:51 PM
10/25/07

FYI
I think we should only have a fire in site A. That was the social site last year.

There is indeed a portapotty now in place in Masten.

Is lost soul lost? where is he?

Also, Backslacka going? He's not signed up, so maybe not.

Anybody there tonight?

I just got finished with yet another interview. It's time to pack now. :)

I misses me a lost soul....

Yes, where is Backslacker? Slacker.

if lost soul isn't going to be there, then who is going to make homemade sweet potato pie? Pennsy?
Mr lyra

I should be there around 10 or 11 in the morning. Anyone know if there is a beer distributor in the area?
nogranola

I will bring two guitars so bring those whore-monicas, Sonny.

Tables???

Are you sure Mr. Bonehead??

If so, I can leave my folding table home.

Hell brother, there's gonna be beer distributors and scotch distributors camping there.

port-a-pottys? picnic tables? in Masten? Surely, you can't be serious? (even WITH your beer)

"Mr Lyra?" heh heh... it didn't take you long to be "whipped."

and yeah, I'll be right on baking that sweet potato pie. Yaaaaah.. if you could bake that pie and bring it on Sunday, that would be great.....

Theres one on rt. 15 in Williamsport. You have to take 15 all the way from Milton (Dont go via the expressway) its about 3/4 a mile in after you come down the steep hill past the Hall of Fame. Before you cross the river.

There's another beer distributor a few miles south of Ralston on a side street, but I can't remember the name of it.
