    Nah... Everyone above the bridge knows what a troll is...

    Problem is most of us trolls, dont know we are trolls. Or that its a term of endearment!

    I put this on my calendar but got to wait out work for a while before I can give the 100% thumbs up.
    April trip sounds mighty inviting with muddy ground that we will hang above......

    I just got my new schedule, I am off the 16th & 17th. I may even take 1/2 of the 1th off. I haven't been to Bloomington in over 25 years, looking forward to seeing it again.
    Are any of the trails being considered near any of the old quarry's? I'm thinking Swimming at lunch.

    Trivia:
    Who can name the movie filmed in / around Bloomington?
    Why were the major characters called "Cutters"?
    What 50 mile a day (Sat & Sun) bicycle ride occurs every fall in the area?
    When you have a backpack on, no matter where you are, you’re home.
    PAIN is INEVITABLE. MISERY is OPTIONAL.

    I've camped there as well. Beautiful spot.

    -Breaking Away
    -locals nickname is cutters cause all of their families were employed as limestone cutters
