Are you packed for the Idaho Fish-In?

Arrrgh, Matey. I’m not sure about that, ye swab. I’ll have to check how the wind blows on that.

REE

I see a truck load of Toilet Paper got dumped into the upper Locsha River!!:confused:

You guys are going crazy!
I wish I Could join :confused: maybe next year :smiley:

Jack, yup. It’s flushed out now.

Jack, that’s how they lower the water level during run off.

Z, ouch.

REE

Don’t forget the turkey repellent.

Dana

Dana, Z said he was coming and that was that. The repellent didn’t work. I have Lady to protect me, tho.

DG, LOL. Gonna be fun!

Z, is Abbey gonna be with you? Let DG spend some quality time with her.

S’cuse me, gotta find the rest of my Idaho stuff.

REE

Well, I’ll be checking with my wife, but as the pot-luck is Friday evening, it isn’t looking good for us to make it on time. I’ll let you all know as soon as I do. Her biggest concern is travelling that far with a new baby that has to be nursed every 3 hours…so we’ll see.

TT.

REE, Great idea! DG can spend a day with Abby!

DG,

Thanks for the list. I printed it out to save time packing. Ghillie goes to visit his friend at the kennel on Tuesday afternoon, the car gets packed Tuesday evening and departure is scheduled for 6:00 AM on Wednesday. I just gotta add treats for Lady and Abbey to the list.

REE

Ron, on the printed list, right beside “tent”, be sure to write “vestibule”…

And I thought Jack and I packed a lot of stuff…

Brad

If ya got time to meet for coffee when ya drive thru town let me know!

DG, Already have “vestibule” listed, along with wood stove and stovepipes.
