Hi Ya'll

“Just thought I would take a minute and introduce myself since I've been posting a little the last few days. Ran into AmyG, Naked Ape, and Kleetn along the road and the invited me over here to check it out. You guys are too much! I would come back just to see what Sarabelle has to say! Been a backpacker/hiker for many, many years, am an official gear head, live in KY, and am proud to meet ya'! Where do I apply for the ECT? LOl”

“Howdy,

What part of KY? I just left Fort Knox last Year.”

“Heeeeeeey-hey baby! I wanna know - oh - oh, if I can be your cabana boy. Just kiddin', I'm already spoken for.

Welcome bpbaby. We already met, but I thought a more formal (HA!) welcome would be in order.”

“Greetings, baby! KY is a great state.”

“Welcome bpbaby. KY. must be nice, they named a jelly after it.”

“I'm in western KY, Land Between the Lakes is my "back yard". Don't need a cabana boy, any sherpas out there? LOL I have to go back and read the rules before I ask about the jelly comment! Ky is a great state for outdoor people, lot's of pretty stuff here. Come on down!”

“Hello”

“Have you done the whole North-South Trail yet?
BTW, Welcome to Camp Trail Talk!!”

“Welcome bpbaby!
Don`t let `em scare you off!”

“Walkindude, yep, I've done it more than once! Going out this weekend and do part of it again. Thanks for the welcomes. LBL is a great place for me to solo, which I do a lot. There's nobody around after you get 1 mile from the campgrounds! Great water supplies too. You been down here?”

“Once a few years ago. My Mom grew up in Paris Tennessee. I was looking at that map just the other day.”

“BTW, About thet ECT application, Just join us on a hike and your in the club! Check out the Fiery Gizzard Thread. I'll send you a map if your interested.”

“bpbaby - I'm just a couple hours north of ya. Carbondale, IL. LBL is a great place. Sounds like yer a dog-lover (like a lot of us), ever make it to Paducah to see Hooper?”

“Welcome to our madness! I myself am a frequent visitor, but less frequent contributor to this gaggle of info and opinions. I find it easily the best gang of folks to hang with on line. Enjoy.”

“stevet
You think we're krazy here, You should hike with us!”

“you people are NUTS!”

“Hey bpbaby!”

“Welcome to my Nightmare, I think you're gonna like, I think you're gonna feel right at home .Here!

Couldn't resist bpbaby, I hope you stick around awhile and get a chance to meet some of the cool people from this site and I am THE COOLEST of them all!LOL!”

“I am only 2 years old, but I am a pistol. I have a dog named Tsunami. He is twice my size and still growing. At times I see the dog as a big bear to cuddle on and other times I see it as a huge mountian to climb on. I don't do much yet. My mom thinks I am to young. I have to go every where with her. My favorite place is the library. Why do I have to use the potty. I can not figure out why for so many years I could go in my diaper and now I have to use this huge, cold bowl. I just know something is going to jump out of there one of these days. English is so hard to learn.”

“Welcome to the funny farm! Put on your waders and hop right in!

To become a member of the ECT all you have to do is join one of our hikes. We have 2 coming up. Firey Gizzard and Wilson Creek. Do a search for the threads for more info.”

“Foremost -----> ignore Wild Chillin, who's past umpteen names have been just as annoying.

WELCOME TO TT BPBABY!!! Very glad to see you've joined us gal! When the feeling arises, shoot or mail a pic of yourself to the wonderful Phil and he'll add ya to our "fambly". Luuv the bag btw, I'll have it on my back in a cupla weeks. Glad to see ya!!!

BTW - if there are any other "lively" ppl on OAN, let's welcome summa them too.”

“bp, we love visiting your state! Have spent many, many summers boating Kentucky Lake and camping on the lbl...great solitude!! We gave up camping on the lbl and moved across to the shorelands (some tva campground) after we had big storm and our boat sank partway and we had to be towed out. We might even think of buying a place on the lake when we retire. Welcome aboard!”

“Bpbaby! Glad you made it here. See, most of 'em don't bite!”

“Welcome to TT BP baybee.”

“Howdy from the Wisconsin Northwoods, bpbaby.

The LBTL is on my list of places to hike. Had hoped to visit it last week, but a blizzard interrupted my "spring" break here. Now I can bug you for info, like if the Weather Channel is being accurate.”

“gojo, raddy- you guys forgot to tell bpbaby to bring you a beer! If you keep this up you're going to lose your reputations! LOL”

“I didn't know you were a chick bpbaby.
If you have any nude photos you'd like us to see, just send em to Phil and he'll be glad to post them for us to view. (jest kiddin)
Have fun here!!”

“whut 'dude said ...”

“I don't post any nude pictures with the possible
exception of tasteful moon shots.

(What the heck...You can send them anyway and then I'll decide).

Welcome to this cuckoo nest.”

“LOL!, Phil.”

“I knew you wouldn't turn it down Phil! LOL!!!!”

“Thanks for the warm welcome!
