I have 3 loaded up and maybe a 4th one. And checking through the gear like Santa, making my list and checking a few times

Speaking of Santa, I've grown a hefty beard, just for PLM.

Trimmed only slightly since Christmas myself, good to have wild bushy beard for wedding pictures right?

It must be Petit week, every day so far She Sells Sanctuary when I get in the truck on satellite radio

Y'all inspired me, I'm not shaving starting tomorrow. I want to look homeless too!

Damn I seriously need to make a list. Both kids are off of their respective schools and daycares Monday so I'll probably do some shopping then.

broadrun96 · 4 Oct 2018, 00:57 (Ref:3854421)

3 so far, ok 2 and a half since I started on the High West already. Gear already loaded in the kitchen. And a cabinet of liquor to raid with 8 bottles of Scotch, only one was mine, and more other liquors than 2 people should have.

Hoping my new cooler gets here tomorrow or Friday and then my old beer cooler becomes the ice cooler so we'll have 40ish pounds clean.

And now I really don't want to go back to work for 2 more days.

Jesus Christ, you have the best liquor selection I've seen

That's mostly the fiance, and a few of those are just for cooking and there's more bottles too tall to fit. Maker's Mark on the counter is purely for chocolate chip cookies

fieldodreams79 · 4 Oct 2018, 01:53 (Ref:3854430)

My liquor selection is a selection of 1 plus moonshine. Signs of a true alcoholic

Speaking of which, I'm bringing the corn whiskey with me.

Is it Tuesday yet? REALLY don't want to work today and now have to stay later instead of leaving early, not for work but for employee appreciation. Yup, we appreciate you so mandatory you stay late.

GAH! Employee appreciation day is called a day off.

I'm leaving at 1 pm today but driving 7.5 hrs to your enemy territory. This comment is in the wrong thread.

Karen Minton just told me the temps are going to drop on Wednesday and Thursday next week but the chance of rain is going up. It's been so damn dry!! Why?!!

Karen's a hoser and just wanted to rain on our parade. Well so does WeatherBug now.

i just hope the rain isn't related to the tropical weather brewing around the Yucatan currently. But i'm bringing my extra rain coat just in case.

How about you just don't bring the tropical rain from the swamp instead?

broadrun96 · 5 Oct 2018, 20:19 (Ref:3854757)

Dear God is it Tuesday yet? Watching the dumbest thing since high school spirit week at what you'd think was a real actual govt office with grownups. Need bourbon, cigars and race cars ASAP.

I have been watching that myself and alittle worried but its looking like it might be a mid week thing so just in time to get things nice and muddy.

broadrun96 · 6 Oct 2018, 02:21 (Ref:3854797)

Yeah, I'm thinking showery mid week but it looks like occasional showers over steady rain but I'm still not sure since it's changed temps and percentages 3 times today. I'm thinking at least a little damp after a month of almost no rain, sounds about right sadly

**joeb** · 7 Oct 2018, 02:22 (Ref:3855062)

It appears we may be looking at a tropical system. Great.

broadrun96 · 7 Oct 2018, 03:02 (Ref:3855072)

Yup, the chance of rain keeps rising on Wednesday. I think there may be some movement in the campsite to a grassy area downhill or uphill at this rate

The mud sucks, and it sucks setting up in the rain sucks even more. And the forecast is now all over the place with what days will bring rain

**joeb** · 7 Oct 2018, 14:41 (Ref:3855238)

My new tent is definitely going to get tested out this trip. just looking at the features on the side of the bag and this one does not instill me with confidence given the forecast. Is 35mph going to be enough?
