I'm out. I was afraid that events would conspire against me, and they have. I hope that y'all have a great time and I'll try again next year.

Tim and Ed - Really hate to hear that you two cannot make the trip. I was looking forward to spending time with the 2 of you again. Next time....
I guess we can always hope between now and then, something may change...If not, I will miss you both...

Fly fishing and fly tying are two things that I do, and when I am doing them, they are the only 2 things I think about. They clear my mind.
Ed,
First Tim and now You..."Taint Fare"
Is it too late to think about getting in on this a bit? I'm a local (well, 60 miles from Townsend), and may be able to show up on one of the days. Don't work most Fridays. I don't get to fish the park as much as I'd like to, so I'll be no help looking for feesh.

Naw, don't need to stay in Townsend, I've got a SWMBO and dawg to take care of in the evenings. Plus it's easier to restock flies when all the materials are right there.
No worries.. hope to see you there. Don't forget to stop at Dock's Motel before you head home so I can get my order in for flies for the next day!

The extended forecast is looking good as well as the fishing reports. Looks to be in the 70's during the day and 40's at night. I've heard that the colors are starting to come out so we may have a little added bonus to the gathering.
As it's just around the corner can ya all post some expected arrival dates and times? Popperfly and I should be rolling in around noon Friday.
I have the FAOL Banner and the hat pins. I'll give them to Warren as he and Deb will be arriving early Thursday.
