LOL bears... Well we got em down here just not that big, kinda like our deer, they are the size of small germans shepards, with antlers.
We do have a thriving monkey population though.

RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Chili

So when is the best time to be there? Is Sunday light the way Aberdeen or the Ga Rally was? I have a limited amount of vacation time I can burn, gotta make the most of it.

Clint, Friday Sat I think is the best evenings...

So far the misquitoes have been a moot issue... the cold snaps have kicked them for the season, I havent picked up a can'o deet (which I normally have to bath in) in over 2 months now... lets hope it stays that way!

RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Chili

Cliff has been working on the dinner menu for the weekend and thus far here’s what we’re looking at..

Friday evening...

BBQ Pork (were going to do several roast quarters v/s a whole pig... I’m taking the chief’s suggestion on cooking quality and taste!)
Bake Beans with trimmings!
Coleslaw

Saturday...

BBQ Chicken
Hamburgers
Hot Dogs
Green Beans and New Potatoes
Corn

Now... Thursday night were cooking for the early birds but were not saying what. So if ya want to know ya better be there and yes its worth it!!!

We will be setting up drink coolers with sweet tea (the way I make it you might become diabetic), Lemonade, Gatorade and Cool Aid... Anything else and your totally on your own! So if you’re pallet requires Rocky Mountain Chardonnay or Sparking Brown Ale bring your own!

Originally I wanted to do breakfast Sunday morning as it’s nice to have cooked food ready when your packing and loading but with everything else I’m not going to be able to swing it… However several of you have expressed interest in working this out, pooling together, etc, etc, etc… Please by all means if you guys want to do this you have my blessing and please see Kenny about it ...*runs* ... lol

Again.. Cliff is volunteering his time and equipment to do all of this cooking for us so PLEASE make sure you thank him for his efforts. (He’s saving my butt and keeping you from my food poisoning!) LOL

If any body is flying into Tampa International Airpot, or St Pete Clearwater airport I can pick you up.
Oh you might be stuck in the back of a Duece or riding Shotgun in my Pinz.
St Pete Clearwater would be better for me,

RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Chili

Thats what I figured. I read the first list it seemed kinda small compared to all the people saying they are coming.
Oh yea I will be bringing a Duece, and at least 2 extra people, along with my Pinz.

My dad said it "Sounds like fun" I have a couple of weeks to convince him. If anything we'd leave Friday morning. 6 hour drive from north of Atlanta. Unfortunately no vehicles. M37 is being disassembled. Definitely sounds like fun!
