2nd Annual Moon Tree Gathering

[hedgeapple]

ah shucks, Bear.  It would have been great having you here.

[TRACY]

I just went to the basement freezer to get some of this winter's ducks for gumbo only to realize that the freezer quit running withing the the last few days. No odor but all is thawed and room temp
Making a run to the landfill now.

Sooooo, chicken and sausage gumbo it is!

Tracy, that really sucks that you lost all the food in the freezer.  I've been there.

The cottage is ready for habitation.  It's in better shape than most of the hunting cabins I've stayed in, but not all of them. 

The septic tank is marked off.  That's the one right of the wood pile. haha haha

[Gsulfridge]

I may be a little later arriving Friday than I had originally planned.  I am going to stop in Williamsburg and harvest all the switch cane I can steal .  .  . er borrow, I meant.  Did I say that out loud?

[osage outlaw]

Thanks Dave.  I think I will take you up on that offer.  I appreciate it.

[Danzn Bar]

Starting to pack some stuff in the truck   

Dave, I'll be there around 9:00 AM Friday.

I took a look at the weather and it looks like Old Danzn Bar is going to have to do a "NO Rain Dance" for Friday & Saturday. 

[TRACY]

Give it all you got Bill! It will be fun no matter rain or shine

Greg, give me a call if you need someone to bail you out of the clink

I'm going to clean out my truck tomorrow and start loading stuff up.  I know I'll forget something.  Good luck with the dance Bill.   Tracy, sorry about the freezer going out.  There is a lot of work that goes into harvesting wild game.  Its a shame to loose the reward from it.

[hedgeapple]

Clint, no problem.

I'm off work tomorrow. I got a lot of little stuff, I want to get done, like set out the venison to thaw and bring up a "table" (4x8 plywood on saw horses) from the party field.  The big project is to clean the workshop, but that'll just take a couple hours. I probably need to reload some more shells.

I'm getting excited!!!

Ozzy, you're list as bringing pizza topping.  I think I had said that I would get the cheese, I just wanted to check with you to make sure we don't duplicate it.

[hedgeapple]

How many of you are bringing handguns to shoot this weekend?

[DGF]

I'll be taking some along. For sure the 1911 and cap & ball revolver. Possibly a couple others if I get around to packing them.

I'm thinking with the possible rain forecasted I'll be coming down towing my pop-up. I've got a couple bows I've been working on a bit I'll bring with me to keep busy. I hope to be in and set up mid day Friday.

[Ozzy]

I also got cheese and I'll grad a bag full of other toppings at the store should be there by noon on Friday if not earlier 

[Gsulfridge]

My power steering just went out on my truck this morning.  I'll have to investigate that and see where that puts me for this weekend.  Hopefully I can get it resolved today without a snag in my plans.  I'll be toting a 1911 up there Dave.
