Has anyone heard from Lenny or Sal?

I've been e-mailing Lennie from time to time and he's planning on being there. Sal used to come about every other year but that was before he had a kid...

Yes we will be in attendance although the kids may only appear on Saturday as they are working. I'm building up my tolerance by working up some osage splits each morning for a few hours. I've got a dozen done, another twenty on the pile. Sweating to death each morning is my form of exercise.

Also inventoried my bow wood and I have 80 osage splits (not counting the stuff I'm working up), 20 other wood splits, and 25 sets of billets. Wife said I have enough, then before I could respond she said "I know, crazy talk".

Can someone put me down or two XL t-shirts please?

Hey Lenny - good hear you've been enjoying the current stretch of our dee-lightful Mizzura weather. That is heap of staves, splits and billets.

Just a week to go.

Thinking that we may find a bit of appetite at some point while we are at MOJAM,  ...I've got a barrel smoked spatchcocked turkey going over some chunks of green maple wood.  'Spatchcocked' is one of those fancy culinary words for "cut in half and flattened out by removing the spine of the bird".  They sure look pretty, but they smell even better!!!  I'll get this smoked most the way through, then I'll vacuum bag it and stick it in the freezer.  It should be about perfect to heat it up Saturday night.

Man that looks good Eric!
I can't hardly wait to get off work tomorrow! Lots of changes going on for me the next two weeks.  But mojam will be a welcomed change of pace!

I've got nothing packed yet, nothing planned yet. And will be there Sunday morning. I'm paddling from Hermann to St. Charles on Saturday and I might try and find somewhere to paddle around Marshall. Any ideas?

See you all soon!

wow. a guy leaves town for a couple of weeks and misses all of the excitement on here.  It will not be long now.  Look forward to seeing everyone.  I have nothing planed for seminars so will hit people up as I see you.  If you have something you would like to do let me know.  Dan, I will ask my daughter to do another arrow shirt design for next year.  Hard to believe next year will be number 20.  Dave there are a couple of nice rivers close by that would be good paddle practice for you.  The Lamine is one and it is a pretty calm body of water that has small boat traffic on it.  The other is called the Missouri River.  Bigger boats on it.  Keith

Well, I just picked up the clean brand new Milk Jugs from Hiland Dairy.  We have 96 of them plus whatever others have collected.  This should be fun!

Wow, that is awesome! Thanks Hiland Dairy!

DBar,  thats what the kids are for!

Glad to hear you are going to make it on Sunday Dave.  I won't deny it, I was a little bummed when you said you wasn't going to make it till Wednesday. 

By this time 2 days from now Eric and I will be there setting up camp!

I've got two sets of ground quivers ready for the jug shoot.
Can't help on the jugs though as the daughter is lactose intolerant.

I'm not fluent in the language of Das Vaterland, but I'm told that "Lactose intolerant" is German for "Beer Drinker".  :D :D :D

Thanx!!!  That's a good reminder sir!  Note to self, 'pack the long hose!'  I'm thinking I'll hand them the jugs empty and let them do a self serve water fill.  :OK :OK :OK
