If you ran it in the afternoons, nobody would care one bit. Its the evenings that might get under the skin of some.

We should be pulling in Thursday's afternoon. I don't know how auction works, I won't have a lot of $$ to spend but I'm hopeing  to get some HHB split and donate a couple. Think got everything working in brothers camper. Is it ok to use a Honda generator he has one I could bring? From what I can see chance of rain every day but no big amounts, of course it Michigan anything can happen.

get with me when you pull in we may have some options for you on the generator that will keep us all purring like a kitten


its the folks that don't ask that we turn Pearly loose on   :laugh: :laugh:

to hot is usually not a issue in that state up north but if you are just worried about an afternoon cool down step inside the club house

Thanks guys for being open about this I'm really glad I asked. I hate it when you ask somebody something and they tell you what they think you want to hear and then their mad because you did what they told you to do. I was thinking exactly what Pearl said that's why I asked. It is a primitive event anyhow if we can find some shade I'm sure we'll be fine.

I don't think the rain is going to be as bad as everyone is thinking.  It looks like passing showers and not all day soaking rain.  The percentage is high but the expected rainfall totals are low. The forecast looked similar for the Classic and all we got was a few evening showers.  Everyone was in the bow shop anyway so it didn't matter.  I hope its the same way for Marshall.

I started out with nothin' and I still got most of it left

I hope this Californian  I'm picking up from the airport isn't made of sugar..... he may melt. Curious though any you guys coming got any extra 2x rain gear just in case? He's traveling light and I'd hate to see him being the only one getting soaked

Ozarkers are not made of Sugar either, ...so I guess we'll be OK with a bit of North Country rain.  We ended MOJAM with a MASSIVE T-Storm last year and didn't lose anybody, ...though a few tent poles were listed as casualties.  My tent shook so violently and that it warped all the walls into odd contortions!  I felt like I was in one of those house of mirrors things you see at county fairs.

Also, I found a guy up in Battle Creek, MI that does Tree Work and sells Firewood.  If we get there and don't have enough, I'll give him a call.  Apparently he can deliver a Pickup load of seasoned firewood for a reasonable cost...

Postman left a note in the mailbox today. Seems there is a pkg waiting for me at post office ... from some gentleman in England. Picking it up tomorrow.

Well guy's this all sounds great! I'm done with work for the week. I got one appointment at 9 in the morning then it's time to get the truck loaded,  pick up Eric and we will be on the way. Since it's raining tonight I might get the last bit of fletchings on my mini arrows.

I have been wanting to donate something to the auction table. So today I wrapped up this cactus quiver today. Hemp cordage, elk antler buttons and sealed with a beeswax and talo mix. It will hold a half dozen of arrows with field points easily, probably more. I left the hemp long incase someone wants to add something else.  Hope someone likes it!

Me and young Nathan will be arriving sometime weds. afternoon and striking camp in the usual location. The wifes not coming until friday so it looks like us boys can act crazy for a couple days without any supervision. Glad to see others coming early as well, the good times will roll this week.
