weather is looking good for this outing. Some clouds, but sunshine also, no rain in the current forcast. Temps in the day around mid sixties, and mid/high forties at night. Good sleeping weather. Less than two weeks now.

Getting ready to go for the trip. Kiddos are getting excited. Mrs. and I have been looking up the surrounding areas. Looks like a few little towns within short distance. Also some waterfalls to go check out. Really looking forward to this.

I just noticed Hunter is not on the list. Gonna miss you this year Hunter!!!!

Checked out the weather. Looks like the temps will be between 45* and 75* the entire time with chances of rain ranging from 0% to 20% over the course of the trip. Looks like perfect camping weather to me!

Have a great time and take more pictures!

**kyratshooter** · 10-21-2015, 01:30 PM

I am afraid I am going to have to cancel.

A couple of health issues have popped up.

First jamboree I have missed in 5 years...

You guys have a good time, and take lots of pictures.

**Solar Geek** · 10-21-2015, 03:53 PM

Crash and all have a great great time and lots of "people " pictures please. Scenery is great but nothing beats seeing our members !
I am spending this week and next processing the abundant harvest, and catching up on everything I didn't do while I was gone to Maine for 14 days for a lobster roll trip and then gone and busy for 4(!) birthdays in a row for immediate family. I will think of you as I am on my knees planting garlic '

**crashdive123** · 10-25-2015, 08:52 PM

Made it back home safely. Had a great time. I'll download the pics I took and post a few tomorrow.

**hunter63** · 10-25-2015, 09:45 PM

Good to hear the trip was successful and fun.....Looking forward to the pic's.
Would have liked to attend....Oh well.

Glad you made it back safely!

It was most definitely a good weekend. Those that didn't go missed out on perfect weather, fantastic views, and tons of salamanders (all but a few were in the bathroom). The bugs were all but non existent. Really good time.

**crashdive123** · 10-26-2015, 12:19 PM

The bugs were all but non existent. Really good time.

I guess they heard I was coming.

**Wilderbeast** · 10-26-2015, 12:23 PM

I had a nice but too brief visit. Got to meet Crash and Mrs Crash, Natertot, Mrs Tot, the two little tots and doggie tot and enjoyed the scenery and some excellent chili. Thanks for welcoming me to your camp, I look forward to a longer visit in the future.

Hahahaha!

Wilderbeast, I am glad that you got to come out for a bit as well and that I had the opportunity to meet you. I hope to see you around this forum a little more and I think I might have to mosey over to the other forum as well. I hope our paths cross again soon!
