Living up to your new trailname! Love this! Thanks Weatherman.

Weather at Fairfield is great, shade hasn't been hot and a nice breeze. Heading out today though, see you guys then or sooner.

Just reserved my site and am working on a bbq hot cheesy bacon chicken wing recipe.

I'll be rolling in sometime on the 8th. I'm taking an extra day to unwind.

Add two. The grandchildren are coming.

Great! I'm thinking one of the hikes will be a short one to the playground, we'll have a good number of young uns

This should be a fun weekend.
I am booking my camp site next week...

I'm really looking forward to it. I've booked a few sites already and will need to book quite a few more from the looks of our spreadsheet.

mmmm got me drooling already. I'm envious of you getting there early. I'll actually be coming directly from a conference I have to attend, in fact I'm leaving it early otherwise I'd follow your lead.

Yeah they have one right behind 25, so short walk indeed.

True, there is one close, but I was thinking about the larger one at the camp area closer to the boat ramp.

Is there going to be anybody there with some knowledge of the constellations who would be willing to point a few out on Saturday evening? The Dippers and Orion are about all that's left of what I used to know and would like to refresh (after about 40 years, maybe refresh is not the right word-----) might be something for the young and the young at heart.

Will there be any kind of raffle?
Or a gear exchange?

That sounds like fun. I can point out a few and I've got an app that can point out the rest.

We typically have a gear drawing but not a raffle, no ticket sales.

Many folks bring gear to trade or sell as well as give away. I know I'll be bringing some stuff for all of the above.

Some years we've had some donations from vendors but that is not something to be expected.

If you have some ideas or suggestions, we'd love to hear some.

I have a couple of things that I can give for the drawing.
