I couldn't get the day off, so I'll be making the trip in one straight shot from work. My estimated time of arrival is 11:30 PM.

As soon as this fog let's up enough for me to see the hood of my truck I'll start this 336 mile trip. Should be there around 2 or 3.

Safe Travels! We will keep the lights on for you! Several of us will likely still be around the fire.

Dale, If you read this, hes the only one that needs anything. And really only needs bottom insulation (assuming we have no rain). I think it would be great if he could try out a topquilt and show him how to set up a tarp as well, though. I can't thank you enough.

We should show up after noon. Maybe closer to 1:00.

The last batch of cookies just came out of the oven!

Got it! You'll arrive before me, but don't worry-I'll be there.

Hey everyone, this is Austin. I mentioned before a book about hammock camping that helped me out a lot. It's called "The Ultimate Hang" by Derek Hansen. I just noticed they have a second edition. I suggest everyone check it out. If anyone wants to borrow mine to read at a hang just let me know and I'll bring it.
