“BOTH!

Hey Crash or Windi...I am guessing both of you will get there before me (unless I bail, ha ha)...if there is recption there, can you call me to let meknow what site you guys are on? I may be arriving in the dark and don't want to stumble onto someone else's site

219 713-3776”

“i think it would be pretty hard to mistake us for someone else”

“True. When I come crashing through the woods, don't shoot me.”

“Mugsy will be in full killer-guard-dog mode. Tread lightly.”

“I can't remember it there is service there or not, but I will try to give you a call. I think it's a pretty good bet we will have the first campsite.
I'm tempted to see about taking all of Friday off.”

“uh oh, Mugsy will be there, someone better bring bear spray just in case he goes wild and attacks. that or a bow for his hair ;-)”

“I'm out. Gotta work Friday.

Sorry. I was really looking forward to hiking with the Russian.”

“And it begins...Sorry to hear that Nigal.

“Lookin colder in the evenings so we are all going to have to snuggle.”

“I am sooooo ready!!! I don't care how cold it is, just NO rain...snow, but no rain!

Windi, I am leaving Lexington at 3 which should mean a 7:00 arrival at the campsite! Looking forward to seeing old faces and meeting new ones!”

“I have been sleeping cold lately so I am bringing my zero bag as well. Last time I was out (Hoosier Sex Fest) it got down to 20 something, I used my 20 degree bag and froze. I sounded like Laura that night.”

“I sounded like Laura that night.”

Thanks WK...I just spit water all over my monitors...lol”

“That morning was a classic moment. Her dropping F Bombs in her tent while we were all sitting around a hot fire was totally #&%!$in.”

“Is it Friday yet! I'm ready!”

“Because I have not been out in a while I am a little OCD on packing. I have packed/unpacked and re-packed for the last week.

I am such a panzee”

“I am such a panzee”

And a scrawny azzed one at that!!

But I'm guessing your way is better than mine...wait till Thurs night then start throwing things in my pack!! lol”

“I used to be more organized. I had the pack set, ready to go other than clothes and food.

Now, I have had stuff in bins scattered all over the basement.”

“WK have you bailed yet? Where is the campsite for Friday Night?”

“You going to show up on Friday night just to see if he's really there?”

“He can bail yet..I have tomorrow morning in the pool! lol”

“Not yet

Someone is bringing a camera to document my existence I hope.”

“He's got a couple of more days still. I have Thursday's pool. lol”

“WK... you've been scarred for life. Ol Laura set the bar very high for whining, crying & misery.

Oh, those were the good times!”

“Was Laura the chick Crash was doin'?

LOL!”

“Would anyone be interested in hotdogs with the basic fixins, chips and cobbler for Friday night? I was thinking about bringing them everyone if there's interest.

“I was really sad I'm not going. I had a great dinner all planned out. I was having Mediterranean complete with kefta kabab slow roasted over coals, roasted red pepper hummus and cous-cous. I was also going to do MeanGreen's Bacon Poppers (sans burnt up).”

“I was going to bring steak and lobster, but since nigal isn't going to make it, it's just not worth it.”

“I'm goin somewhere this weekend...let me check the milage to this place and I'll get back with ya!!!”

“Do it Spam! It's no farther than us driving to Trail Days ;-)”

“Oh yes it is brother...I'm 3 hours the other side of traidays from you all!!! I Googled it and it says it's a 8 hr drive to Bedford.Im not feelin an 8 hr drive...If it were 6 I'd say yes!!!Have a great time!!!”

“Hey Windi....apparently I'm not gonna get there till around 7 or so but I'm sure I could be persuaded to eat a hotdog or two if you bring them...”

“Never seen UP turn down a wiener yet...”

“Windi...I love your cobbler, but how are you going to get all that packed in? I will help or let me know what I can bring!”

“Hey Nigal....GO OUT IN THE WOODS AND DIE! :p~”

“heehee!”

“And while you're at it...take your damn dirty socks with ya!! lol”

“Have a great hike you'll.”

“itll be almost 330 before i leave kokomo. i should hopefully get in just before dark”

“Well, I guess I have to utter those words again...












































Looking forward to this trip! Ha Ha!”

“darn....I thought I was gonna win the pool for a sec there! lol”

“Other than the possible sun on Saturday, the weather look identical to what we had on my first trip to this same place exactly 6 years ago.

Now if there is 4 inches of wet sloppy snow on the ground, it will match perfect.

Looks like kilt weather for Saturday!”

“Friday's campsite is close to the parking area, so I think it should be easy to carry stuff in. I will carry stuff back out on Saturday before heading to Saturday night's campsite.”
