Bump..... Was bored thought I'd keep the thread going I am making some cache tubes to bring 6"x2' and 6"x3' maybe some 4"x? if I can.
I'm glad you bumped this. I was thinking about it this morning and forget to bump it myself.
We are T-minus four (4) weeks and counting (plus a few days). The dates again are August 14, 15, and 16.
The average highs for those dates are 83F. The average low 62F. The record high is 95F and the record low is 45F. It looks like we'll be on a waning moon so bring your lanterns.:) (or torches if Wychwood is coming. LOL)

Rick - how many requested brochures?
A total of 9 but only three have sent me their postal address to send them out. If you want a brochure package on Greene-Sullivan then PM me your address and I'll send it to you. No charge (Hey! I'm a great guy).

You're more than welcome to go. Even if you can't make it for the whole time, make it a day trip and stop on by.
You bet. Spend a few hours if you can't spend more time. It will be fun. I mean it. It WILL be fun or I'll have your head on a platter......oh, sorry, I sort of got carried away there. Come on by! (I heard a rumor there will be Danish...the desert, not the girls).

Have I missed some posts? I know the dates are august 14-16 at Greene-sullivan S.P.
Bu has a time and place to meet been decided? Or exactly what area we'll camp? As I said before unless something changes i can arrive late morning to help get stuff together if anyone needs me to do so just let me know.
I posted some aerial pics of the place starting on post 222. I'm going to try and setup as far in from the main road as possible. It was pretty quiet there and close to a couple of water faucets. I'm going down Friday morning and set up. I'll post a pic of my truck and canoes later so everyone knows what to look for.

Rick looked at info you sent and on line I have a dumb question?? Are there showers/bathhouse in/near camp ground?? Had a friend ask and i said I'd check
No there isn't. It's a primitive campground. It has pit toilets and there are fresh water faucets around the campground. In total, there are three campgrounds in Greene-Sullivan State Forest and all of them are primitive.

(Oh you could have a few beers and bacon sandwiches for me tho) and I expect a full and detailed report when you all get back!
Have fun! and make sure your torches have spare batteries!!

You've never been to Gosport or Portsmouth(England) No-one would be homesick for either;)
Anyway have a great time all!
Another bit of info I forget to add in. The state forest folks allow two tents per camp site so, if cost is a factor, there is no reason two people can't share a camp site and share the cost. It's $8.00 a night to camp. The firewood is $6.00 a box (if I remember correctly) and you can count on 4 boxes for 2 nights. Again, that cost can be split if two folks are sharing a camp site.
I just checked Gasbuddy.com for gas prices in Terre Haute, Indiana. That's the closest larger town in the area. Prices are running about $2.49 a gallon.....subject to change, of course.

People Get Homesick no matter where they are from WW. I grew up in S.Ga. where it's hot swampy humid area. but it's home and I miss it. Probably one of the easiest places I know of to survive in, if you know a few wild edibles and like fish,frogs,snakes and 'gator meat. It may be swamp but it's home.

Hi Rick and Everyone,
Well, I made it through another Boy Scout summer camp. With that behind me I can now focus on the Indiana rendezvous. All looks good for me to attend, I'm looking forward to meeting as many of you as possible.
Rick, I'm still available to arrive early if you need any help. I will more than likely arrive on Thursday anyway.
pgvoutdoors
07-27-2009, 11:20 AM
If anyone needs a tent or camping equipment so you can stay, PM me and I should be able to help.
You are welcome to show up anytime you want. I'll be down on Friday.
I have completed the targets for the knife and tomahawk throwing. I can safely say that I will be NO competition in the knife throwing. I am excellent at missing the target as my wood fence can attest to (I have to come up with some excuse for the gouge when my wife asks. Hmmm). As for the tomahawk throwing, I fare much better. I can actually stick the thing time and again, which came as a pleasant surprise to Moi.
The knives are CS True Flight Throwers and they are SHARP! Let me say that again. They are SHARP!!!!! I suggest you bring a pair of decent leather gloves if you are as bad at this little game as I am. I see no sense in amputating a finger if I can't even hit the target.
And....Crash has agreed to hold a lit cigarette in his lips while a try to cut the cigarette in half by throwing a knife. Should be a lot of fun for most.

That's the Quality Control Department for ya'! Have fun Crash! Just think, after all these smoke free years, you can now do a Q.C. analysis of how sharp a knife has to be to slice through a lit cigarette. Next month, maybe the Nicoderm patch? :innocent:
And then you can test the tripod after Rick slices your lips, I mean your cigarette...........:sneaky2:

If any of you are bringing kids, PM me their names and ages, please. I'd like to introduce everyone when we get there so I'm keeping a list of the "real" names.
I just sent out a PM to the folks that have indicated, at some point, that they planned to attend but I'm not certain what their current status is. I know about:
Chiggarsngrits
Crashdive
Pgvoutdoors
Oldsoldier
Pocomoonskyeyes and better half
I've sent PMs to five more requesting status. The rest of you I have seen a post or received a PM that you can't attend because of some conflict.
If you plan on going and you are not on the above list or receive a PM from me then just shoot me a PM and let me know. We're just trying to put some items together for the jamboree and would like some idea of how many plan to attend.
I'm certainly not trying to limit it in any way. Only trying to make certain that we have enough stuff to go around. Of course, you'll have to attend to find out what the "stuff" is or wait for the pictures. If you just want to drop by and meet everyone, that's cool, too. We'd love to have you.
Be there or be square.

If you plan on doing any fishing stop in and get a couple of "yellow Sally's" (flies I've only seen them down in your neck of the woods) they will catch more panfish than you can eat!!

I've thought about that and don't have any problem with it. Just need to figure out what every likes/can eat. If it doesn't bite back, I'm pretty much open. There might be some diet restrictions for one reason or another so that needs to be considered.
Any thoughts on menu?

As it stands now I should be bringing 15-20 pkgs. of danish, cherry,apple,cheese,bear claw,deluxe
10-15 pkgs. ( the three pks.) of otis spunkmeyer muffins. Chocolate,wild blueberry, banana nut.
2 trays ( 36 per tray) hamburger buns.
8-10 pkgs. hot dog buns
2-3 (maybe more if available) of caramel sweet/cinnimon rolls.
4-5 assorted loves of bread white,wheat,etc.
If anyone has any "special/dietary"requests let me know asap and I'll see if Lewis carries it. Last time I looked we were going to have about 10-12 people attending so hope fully there will be enough to cover the weekend and maybe even have enough that Ric... er I mean who ever wants to can take home " leftovers"

Well that covers food for the weekend. I gotta take a nap now.
Then we need to stick with hot dogs and burgers for the meat since oldsoldier is furnishing the bread. I'll volunteer to take care of the burgers.
By the way, I WILL use the above to take inventory..........POCO!

Hey I heard that!!(read it actually) you aren't getting me near the water now!!! HEHE I'm watching you two now. Rick remember the danish? huh? just calm down and I won't hurt them or eat them, but if I see so much as a siphon hose there all gone!!!

Sorry Rick I can't pick on you about the Danish I'm just hoping this goes through. I will be talking to Old soldier again in a day or so. He thinks his computer will be out of the shop in about 3 working days (wednesday) I don't know about our computer It still works kinda', but is dinosaur slow. makes a snail look like a maserrati.

But Ken you didn't read the fine fine fine print....Must be donated to local first responder unit, or winner must pay full price plus 10% to donator and all applicable sales taxes. I had to use a magnification program at 500x to see it, I thought it was just an accidental mark, but it just appeared TOO straight.
Well, there you go all my secrets are out. No point in me going I guess. Oldsoldier can just UPS the Danish (the pastry not the people) to me and Hoosierarcher can ship me the pork loin....cooked of course. I'll just put my name in the hat for the knife drawing.

I did gather up some things for the door prizes though, some fun stuff.
The drive from Madison, OH to Green-Sullivan is about 450 miles, all interstate highway except for 65 miles of it. (7 1/2 hrs. driving time) I'm planning on leaving at 5:00am on Friday and arriving between 1:00-2:00pm.
I'll bring the condiments for the hamburgers and hot dogs: ketchup, mustard, relish, pickles, lettuce, and tomatoes. Plus a few watermelons.
Plan on doing some fishing while I'm there, I'll bring some extra equipment for others to use if they like. I'll bring some fly tying equipment, something to kill a little time.
Looking forward to going, even though I've been preoccupied with other activities. I hope everyone within a reasonable driving distance comes out, even if it's just to visit for a few hours. See you there!

Okey dokey fellow jaboreers(?). If my tally is half way accurate, we have 9 adults and 3 mini me's that will be attending. I just put 15 primo hand made hamburgers and 9 primo hand made turkey burgers in the freezer. None of this store bought burger stuff for this crowd. That comes out to about 6 lbs of cow and 3 lbs of gobble. I figured that, along with the dogs, courtesy of Mr. and Mrs. Crashdive147, would keep the munchies away for an hour or so. I'll bring some stuff out of the garden and I've got desert covered for that meal as well. I'll bring some corn on the cob with me, too.
I would really like to leave a trip document with someone responsible on the forum. The problem is, no one comes to mind. Still, if we eat ourselves to death (I hope, I hope, I hope) someone should at least know.

In other news... Dottie/Equus is scheduled to work tonight which could throw a slight curve at us. It can & will be overcome no matter what!! I'm Going, come he!! or highwater!!! There is a possibility she could be cancelled, or failing that let off early. Won't know for sure 'til @5:30 this afternoon. Cross your fingers everybody!!
Here's hoping she gets cancelled!Fingers are crossed!

After all the Twinkies he talks about and the way he talks about food they have to be about the same size,Right? Rick and Santa I mean. If he's that good with kids that would be another thing they have in common..... Hey maybe Rick IS santa Clause!!!! you know you can register with any name here, Maybe that's what it is, Santa Clause is really Rick, trying to keep tabs on us here to see who is being good!!!!

Tell them it has to be a secret,Santa can not know that they know who he is! Then bribe them with their favorite treat if they make it through the whole jamboree without giving away the secret to the other members,LOL.

Yeah right that will last about 30 seconds. The only way they can keeep a secret is if they don't know it.
I..uh...might point out that I haven't left yet. Ho! Ho! Ho!

Sorry folks but I am excited to be able to go. Ken that was a campfire and a stream compared to the excitement I feel. You'll have to come up with something better than that. My excitement would make a nuke look like a firecracker, and the sun like a bonfire, the ocean is just a mud puddle compared to how excited I feel. If they locked up the gas pumps I would just saddle up and ride, I might get there when everyone is leaving but get there I would! Anyone trying to stop me better declare martial law now, that is how determined I am in going(I'd still slip through the lines somehow).
very funny ken!!!!! are you ever serious? I am just curious.
I WAS serious once. Back in '93. We were a 2-man HALO team - me and Skully.
We didn't have our chutes on yet, when this flock of high-flying pigeons slammed into the side of our plane and just totally blew the bulkhead out.
We got sucked right out of that plane into the night sky, and if it hadn't been for Skully's training, well, I'll tell ya'........... :innocent:
You'll have to come up with something better than that.
Please, Poco. Don't tempt me like that. :sneaky2:
I'm reading that and I'm like, what's she got to do with this? This it was deja vu all over again. Duh!

I just got back from my Boy Scout district meeting and now I can finish getting ready. This week has been hectic and I still have a lot to do. I may arrive a bit later the 2:00 pm Friday, I have a couple things I need to do before I can leave. How many months did I have to get ready???? I wish I had just one more day. It may kill me but I'll be there by early evening on Friday. I'm still cutting down my load to fit in a car, now that I don't have the van to take. That's the biggest bummer...
Well back to work, someone put on some coffee because I'll need it.
P.S. I did get the food already, important things first.
Talk to you later... :tongue_smilie:

thanks guys got the kids in bed that was rather eas tonight most of the time they stall but tonight i told the sooner they get into bed and go to slep the faster we get to leave for indiana. they have known about this for two weeks and have been very excited ever since we told them we were going!! they have talked about this non stop but i am already for the questions are we there yet mom and dad? i am excited but like pgv i wish that i had one more day to get ready for this. between work and the house it has been chaotic then mel had to go and help out in the hay field for a little while before he could help me pack. now we have to go and take care of the horses one more time to. we are going to pack the truck since we are headed out before sun rise. that we can get up and roll. talk to you later.

thanks 2d2k i won't i promise!!!! my dog sadie wants to go but mel said no to that because we have a small truck and she would have to travel in her crate for the trip and since noone else is bringing a dog he said not this trip maybe next time. i think it is funny though she knows that something is up because she is just sitting next to me with hter sad brown eyes like can i go mom. we will only be gone 3 days. has anyone heard anything from crash where he stopped for the day to rest?

Well, you could always have 2dumb fill in for Sadie. Nobody at the Jamboree would know the difference.
Have a real good time, Equus! :)
