    Default 6th Annual Jamboree

    I guess it's time to start planning our 6th annual jamboree.

    I'll toss this out there. Last year we had reservations at Briar Bottom Campground before the government shutdown. http://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/nfsnc...48522&actid=31 For those that are planning on attending, what to you think about the last weekend in October at Briar Bottom?

    Hey Crash, the last weekend in October (the 25-26) works for the Tot Clan.

    As for the location, I am not opposed to Briar Bottom. I was kinda thinking that perhaps a list of those who are in should be somewhat assembled first?

    Just throwing it out there. I don't think I ever got a refund from last year's shut down.

    You expect a refund from a government shutdown?

    By "expect" he means that he had better get a refund because that would be the correct non-tyrannical thing for the government to do and what will happen in the end. Does he expect to get his expected refund without expecting a fight or an expected load of red tape? Probably not, but what would be unexpected is if he got his expected refund unexpectedly easy. So to sum it up, expect the unexpected!

    Hopefully they will apply last year's finances to this years use.

    You fellows just work out the time/place details and I will schedule around that.

    In that area the 3rd or 4th weekends are always good for color. October is always the least rain of the year too.

    I am in, with at least the boys. Not sure about the wife and baby until it gets closer. Just need the dates when it gets locked in. Lets just try to catch a few less fish this year

    If you need me to do any scouting, more than willing.

    Any word on whether or not Briar they'll give credit for this year? If they will, I think we should have it there and then let people join the list already knowing the dates and location. It may help with the waning of the list that we usually get each year.

    I haven't called them yet - waiting to see if there is an interest. Let's not let me getting a credit be the deciding factor.

    Gotcha. Perhaps they'll give a credit to any other federal park, since it is a "federal" entity? If you find out, let us know. I'm all for sitting around a fire, drinking coffee, eating food, drinking coffee, chatting, drinking coffee, chasing the kiddos, drinking coffee, fishing, drinking coffee...... pretty much anywhere! The wife a kiddos are already wanting to see many of the previous attendees and we just got a new pup that will tag along as well.

    Places:
    Briar Bottom

    Woodsman +2 to 4
    Kyrat
    Hunter +1

    I'm a tentative attendee. It depends on the days-of-the-week for the gathering; and, what insanity might be happening at work. If it's at the end of a week (Thursday thru Sunday), that ups my chances of being able to participate. Of course, don't set the days just on my account. Gotta find days that work best for the majority.

    I'm in MUCH beter shape than I've been in for the past two years; and, I'm gettin' a brand spankin' new knee in July. Still blind in one eye and missing 5 muscles in my right shoulder; but, I'm at least as functional as a lot of folks 5 to 10 years younger than me. I'd love to be able to attend!

    Just for the sake of throwing out another "option", here is Indian Boundary in the Cherokee Nat'l Forest near Tellico Plains TN.
