    I'm trailering, so I will have the SUV and a trailer that we can use to procure any supplies needed. From the market down the road.

    I am in PDX this morning. Will be at the campsite early today so I can get with any of the other newcomers and figure out where to get what.

    PM me in the next hour or so and I will give you my cell number if anyone needs to get in contact with me.

    I was heading to Costco today for stuff so I picked up 48 BBQ hamburger buns and Apple pie added to my list of stuff from the previous post. If I'm lucky I will get some hookage from this guy on Craig's list for some cherry wood but he seems like a dead beat so it's up in the air.

    I dunno. Wibby is coming from Methford and took the long way round. You will have to convince Vern, his decision is final and can be arbitrary.

    I have decided that if the route to Wetfest is elective, as in Mr. Wibby's case, then added miles don't count. We are looking to give the distance award to the person who lives the furthest away. The only ringer in this is if someone does something awesome like riding an old Yamaha with a Chinese engine and supremely stretched chain toe Wetfest a long distance. Then it will be a people's choice award with recognition split between distance and awsomeness.

    Judiciously yours,

    You guys and your darn fangled 2 wheeled thingamajigs. I bet your just gonna sit around some poorly built camp fire and talk about some sleek lookin connecting rod you saw once back in the seventies. Probably eating fried possum grits and seasoned squirrel nuts. Drinking coors light and listening to ABBA. Then you will probably wake up and put on your high falootin overalls and ride them damn machines through some meaningless wooded area with animals in your way and sunlight blinding your eyes. Ill bet you even tell stories about how some old guy named Petermen went hunting Wibbys in the woods and came back with a raging case od the Clapped R6. Some Fisherman came up and said the only cure was smother AppleJam all over the affected area. Once the Road rash looking problem starts to go away you have to go down to the OregonCoast and listen to music while trying to do the Zombie_Stomp. Nope I am not jealous at all nope not at all I tell ya. I mean I am serious I dont care one bit about any of it. As a matter of fact I bet I wont think about it once. Not once I tell ya. Nope No way NEVER. I dont care what happens. And just well :fyyff
