If Tim were to dance, he would make that guy look like a wall street city slicker.
For a brief moment I could hear nature through all the noise.

everything is packed up and ready to go except for the beer and fruity drinks for the lady..and also debating bringing my own food because me n her eat based on the paleo diet which is just meat fruits veggies and nuts...what kind of food will be at the community tent?

Typical picnic fare. Sausage burgers hotdogs chips.  Any special dietary needs your responsible for.

I am spent, we had a great time in the little amount of time I could stay!  The kids slept a good deal on the way home, which was good.  Daddy napped on the recliner from 12-2:30pm then packed the truck for the end of year scouts cookout, was a blast.  We didn't get home until around 9:30pm!!!

Glad to meet everyone, all great people, and loved to chat up not only about hunting, but lots of other social activities.  I could of used a set of ear protection LOL  those trains ran about every couple of hours, but what the hell, I have endured worse, like the time a couple was drunk and fighting in another campground around here, and got thrown out ;)

We'll be attending this outing again, missed not being able to say goodbye to everyone, but hope to participate more as my time allows!

Enjoy the rest of the weekend, and have a couple more beers for me!!!!

Well I'm home. I had a great time this weekend. Even though no one thought the siren going off at 330am was funny. Any ways I had a blast. I plan on attending next years outing and making my own batch of apple pie.

Cooper, if you want to get out sometime, you can find my contact info under contact exchange.  I can get out during the week at night and maybe a Saturday night.  All depends on work and the kids schedules.

Swarter, too funny, I did NOT hear anything until around 5:30 when the train went by, and my little one woke me up, he was off the air mattress and on the ground freezing :(

I am going to buy a travel trailer later this year, like I was saying, it's the only way my wife will go camping LOL

thanks to everyone that came out this past weekend.  still haven't unpacked the trailer yet and just getting caught up on some sleep.  Thanks to tim for helping set this up and helping through out the weekend.  thanks to jason, tim, shawn, and bob for cooking when I couldn't get er all done.  the weather was great as well.  anyone that missed it missed a good time.  will post pics later then.
