    wish I could have been there... but the check engine light, mixed with the gas cost, mixed with the extra mouth to feed, ended up with me and way less funding than I had planned for. Maybe next time.

    The first of the gang just checked in. Oldsoldier is on-line right now replying to that evil thread posted by the evil WE. Oldsoldier voted to turn me into a newt. I hope that he ate so much at the Jamboree that he gets indigestion tonight.

    Sorry only time I ever got indigestion was about 20 years ago while stationed in africa with the army got stranded with a tribe of sometimes canabals. They served us what they latter said was roasted Lawye....... Er... ah... I mean Monkey.

    Ken Da Newt (in chicago they say "Da Bears," so it's Da Newt.) I'll leave it to others to tell you about most of the weekend. I'll hit some highlights.
    My name was drawn the most for the prizes. What a suprize that was. Thanks to all for their donations. A special thank you to RSpence for the knife. My thanks to all that attended. It was great to meet people from this forum in real life. Next year is already in the works. We've discussed it and mid September seems to be the most like time as this weekend was uncomfortably hot and humid. The first night there was a lot of "show and tell" with everyone showing off their knives and some other gear and gizmos. oldsoldier won the award for bringing the most gear, B.O.V. and trailer both loaded to the gills. There were enough danish (the pastry not the people) for an army, or Rick three times over. Saturday Nights potluck was homeric, enough food to feed three times the number there (in the campground not just our group.) Since this was my idea I was nervous about how it would go. Everyone seemed to have a good time.We created a monster. Equus has become a tomahawk throwing machine. She threw and threw and threw until last light Saturday and then again from shortly after she got up until breakfast. Thanks again to all that attended. Thanks again to oldsoldier for the ride. Thanks to Rick, Crash, oldsoldier, PVG, poco and Equus for their generosity and gracious giving natures.

    I gotta' ask. After Rick retired to his tent for the night, did he fart loud enough to keep the whole campground awake?

    I have an energy absorption plasma vacuum that came with the tent. Sort keeps that in check.

    I've never seen so many Danish (the pastry not the people). It was like being the only guy at the Miss Universe pageant. Like being the only summer renter in Heaven. Like wearing your wife's ..... I mean, it was great.

    Not really. The odor-eating thong is what takes care of his breath.

    They don't make an odor eater large enough for the thong. I had to use a parachute for the thong as it is.

    I'll try to start posting some pics tomorrow and give up some secrets...I mean....information about the jamboree. They kept me up past my bedtime two nights in a row and I'm a bit tired tonight. I've also lost my binky so tonight may be another rough night.
