    Had A Great Time!

    Just wanted to say thanks to Ed and Karen for the great time! Thanks to Ricegravy, I enjoyed your pics. I brought my camera, but got too lazy to take any pics. Hammocks just do that to me! The breakfast was awesome. I hope I brought the right fuel that I signed up for. It looked like most who were cooking were using the white gas and I brought the propane. Thanks to WV for the ramps, that was a special treat. The auction was very cool. I really wanted that winter tarp.
    It was nice to put the faces to the posters. Great meeting Oldnslow, Ncpatrick and his daughter, the guys from Tree to Tree, and of course Hanging Burrito and Running Feather. I know who I want to camp with next time. If you can't remember me, I was the guy with that Motley Crue with the station wagon in a Traveler. Anyone else get some itchy weird looking bug bites on their legs?
    My first time in Hot Springs. My brother and bought some cheap blowups from the dollar general and floated down the river a few time...that was fun and yes, it was cold!!

    Yes!

    Early chiggers? Makes me wonder what Linville is going to be like in 2 weeks.

    Chiggers ... not so much ... black flies, gnats (that will make you appreciate skeeters), skeeters and and an occasional tick ...

    That makes sense. My brother and I were walking along the river bank a couple of times when we putting our floats in. I didn't get a chance to meet you Mac, but I saw you there. You were just such a celebrity and always had a bunch of people around you

    That's what I though it was, but I was real careful about where I was stepping and can spot that stuff pretty good. Got some cortisone on mine now. I'll have to see what you do about chigger bites. I know there was a thread recently. You were down closer to the river too weren't you Bobby?

    My wife said it looked like noseeums bites. I don't think I've ever had a noseeum do this kind of damage, but I did feel some biting my legs.
