Yea , Buddy ! Couldn't ask for a better forecast here . Pleasant temperatures . Cool enough in the evening for a campfire that's not just for show . I'm hoping that everyone has as good a time as they did last year .

Man, I wish I could make it... maybe the wife will have a change of heart. 3:30am and I'm up with the little one here and I'm sure I will be then as well. Pour a drink (or 7) for me.

I sure hope the Weatherman isn't mistaken about the coming weekend . Thunderstorms so bad here today that the streetlights in surrounding towns were coming on at noon .

'Scuse the hell out of me . We did not exclude totally sober or fully inebrieated posters from taking part . We were simply offering a middle ground so as not to be offensive .
I can see that we are off to a fun weekend . Repartee and likker blending . What can possibly go wrong there ?
Y'all know that I'm being facetious . This is going to be a finer party than last year cause most of us are attending the second or third party . Or fourth party .
Most of us know each other face to face as well as on line .
We will soon make friends with the newcomers to this year's venue . It's what we do .

I didn't miss dinner, did I?

Sorry for being so vacant, all. Just this past weekend I was able to re-arrange life enough to be sure I could attend. Sorry for not getting back to you sooner, shine... outlook wasn't so good when I got your voicemail, but all is fine now. Rager and I will be heading down on Friday morning. It will be great to catch up with everyone! Holly can't make it this year, unfortunately.

Is there anything I can bring to help out?

A little update on what I'm bringing:
Neutral, uj from my potstill cut for drinking white, uj from my potstill aged on white oak for a year, uj from my flute cut for drinking white, uj from my flute cut for barrel aging, and some apple pie made from my neutral.

I've only had one other person in the hobby sample any of my product and I'm looking forward to criticism from the group on how I can improve.

Feller that builds mega engines and has MCH for a buddy ............... WTF ! How could you not expect to have a good drop . I imagine that you will humble the rest of us with what you bring .

Appreciate the offer . SOH stocked up from a local free ranger yesterday . She says we got that covered . I think good appetites are what needs to be brought to this party .

All showered up, about to put the coffee on. At least I'll be clean when I get to that mountain. :wtf:

Going to be heading your way in an about 30 minutes Butch. After I pick up a friend, and swing by our friendly neighborhood butcher!

Happy trails, safe travels. See everyone soon!
