    Yeah I hardely ever knew what day it was. A lot of my register entries had the wrong date. Plus I noticed you use places as references to time. Saying the city or place you were at instead of 5 days ago or 2 weeks ago.
    Is that too much to ask? Girls with frikkin' lasers on their heads?

    I'm hoping the be there, driving up Saturday. If the roads are too icy, I won't make the drive. My son, Ben, may be with me. (He's living in Louisiana now. Some of you may remember him from one of the weekends in Hot Springs.) He has an ENO hammock now that he's used some in LA and TX. VA in the winter will be a bit of a challenge for him.

    So quiet???

    This thread seems strangely quiet with the start of the event only 2 days away. Here's the latest NWS forecast...looks maybe a little dryer that the earlier one. Looking forward to meeting everyone and seeing all the great DIY gear, maybe Friday or Saturday for sure.

    Friday...Sunny. Not as cool with highs in the upper 30s. Northwest winds around 10 mph with gusts up to 20 mph in the morning...becoming light and variable. Wind chill values as low as 2 below in the morning.

    Friday Night...Partly cloudy in the evening...then becoming mostly cloudy. Cold with lows around 20.

    Saturday...Mostly cloudy. A chance of rain in the afternoon. Highs in the lower 40s. Chance of rain 30 percent.

    Saturday Night...Mostly cloudy. A chance of rain in the evening. Lows in the upper 20s. Chance of rain 30 percent.

    Sunday And Sunday Night...Mostly cloudy. Highs in the mid 40s. Lows in the lower 30s.
    Gentle raindrops and mighty oceans...neither can exist without the other.
    Time heals all wounds...but it usually leaves a pretty big scar.

    yeah, i was just getting ready to post here myself<g>.
    hopefully we can avoid much in the way of cold rain.
    i was just wondering about getting an update on how many plan to be there so i will know how many buns to bring.
    at least a couple or more have had to cancel out so i & others may need to take care of a few items that they were going to be bringing.
    I too will something make and joy in it's making

    http://www.hammockforums.net/forum/p...ults&pollid=32

    I would plan on rain at some or all of Saturday. Unless my luck changes anytime I saw a chance of rain I saw something. You guys can blame me later for bringing my bad weather mojo later.

    If that is for Damascus I would plan on it being 10-20 degrees colder 3K or 4K feet higher at Wise.
