AO Gathering - Caroline

[Sandalius]

With the gathering being just over a week away it might be a good idea to get a better idea of who's actually coming. Now I will be going out there early ( probably Thurs ) to get some things set up and to get a bunch of wood together ...ect. Now if we do get quite a few people coming out we might have to change the location to a larger area as this one is pretty narrow( but it's not a problem - there are a few bigger spots just a few kms farther down the road ), we will have to get a better tally of who's actually coming. If we do change the location you will be notified accordingly and we will post some extra signs on the road to the spot. As it stands we have 10ish people confirmed and about 11 or so unsure on attendance. So please post or PM if your are going to make it out.

There has been quite a bit of interest in this gathering and I'm happy to see so many people wanting to get together and share experiences with one and other. However as some of the recent happenings on the board and some of the comments and PM's I've received ( here are some samples - I'm an " azzhole " and " the bad apple ", " every post you put up wastes everybody's time ", but the best one is " people like you ruin sites like this for every one else " ) makes me wonder why I bother doing all this work to bring people together to share info and stories. I have met some first class people on here and I hope to meet more, unfortunately I cannot see this happening cause I'm pretty sure that after this gathering I will be done with this site. ( though it's not confirmed just yet ) The comments didn't hurt my feeling ( notice singular not plural )( and some might even be true ) I'm just sick and tired of all the Bull Sh!t that goes on here !!


So please - lets keep this thread on discussions about attendance, food, who's bringing what - things of that nature ----- save the rest for the gathering.

Ignore the *******es etc as they will always surface from time to time because you can hide behind a computer if thats their desire.
Hope to see youthere

X2 ignore the dicks, its unfortunate that just any clown who can type, and some who cant even do that very well, can get into a good forum like this one and try to ruin things for the good people. I will be there, should have some corn ready by then too so I will bring some of that along. I will leave early Thursday so should be there by noon or ish. I have a screen house I will bring so we can cover a table if someone has one in case it rains. Hopefully the squirrels arent like the gophers at PCR and eat holes in it too .

Well I am going to be there for sure-as Steve and JTS know I don't like being late so will hopefully get up there Tues or Wed. I will park the trailer where I am told and will do my best to behave. If I am one of the ones messing this board up I will listen to one of the respected members (like Mr dominat wolf Steve). I sometimes get funny on here and maybe that is irriatting some. Some of the others are just a pain in my derrier.

I don't have much to offer the group but do have a 3 burner chief chef thingy and will haul the jon boat and a pontoon boat. Anyone is welcome to share this.

I am excited to meet some more of the crew.

I forget that I do have one thing to share-I am a non drinker but have a 40 oz Bailey's for your coffees.

Since we are getting close and I believe we talked of maybe another pot luck dinner how about those who are coming put in some ideas for food. Just so everyone doesn't bring the same things. My wife is my food person and would like to get going on her menu. We will be leaving after breakfast Thursday so should be there by late morning. Just bringing the trailer this time and maybe do some stream fishin so the wife can ride shotgun.
I will have my 4k genny with me if anyone needs power to cook or anything special as well as the 3 burner campchef. I see Tony has as well. Let's try to figure it out as the last time was an awesme dinner. How about any other ideas. Last time a couple of us did filet fish demos. Any other informative ideas would be great.
P.S. to Steve: Awesome job last time and was well appreciated. My dogs probably don't know where they came frome but their moose sicles are a favorite treat right now.....
