Ed, Doc and I will probably go up together. Not sure if we will drive or fly in Docs plane, will depend on weather.

Kent, we will attempt to attend - mostly revolves around Dr's appointments. We're hoping our issues are resolved by then.
Not having been there - do you think we should bring the camp trailer, or maybe use a local (or semi-local) motel?

Mark, Joy is always in my prayers.
Either will work, the motel is about 5 miles, Joe can best describe it as he stays there, it's not difficult to pull the trailer in if that's your preference, we are about 1 1/2 miles in on a dirt road.

Thanks, Kent. I'll have to do some head-scratching (sacrifice some more hair  )

Mark, you could easily get your camp trailer into the site, but Joy might be more comfortable in the motel. Miles got in an out just fine with his mobile Taj Mahal.

We're thinking about NOT pulling the "bunkhouse" that far - for just a couple of nights. Yes, Ben - her comfort is paramount to me, right now.
(He!! - I could make do in the pickup bed, myself. )

Of course, it is the same weekend as javelina opens. Jeff and I both drew tags in 23. I guess we can cross the river and hunt!

Kent If I can make it, you can bet your ass there will be a Sharps in attendance. After all, it was Greg that got me started on this BPCR addiction! Might even bring some extra BP just in case... Ed

I'll try to find a cannon I have a few cannons you can borrow, Just need to figure out the logistics to get them there from Iowa and back. Greg and I talked about big bore carriage mounted noise makers on more than one occasion Russ

I just MAY be able to borrow a cannon, and either get instruction on it's operation (blanks for me), or bring the owners to operate it.

Mark, I spent 4 hours with Greg the last time I stopped by his place. Talked all about cannons. I bet you that I know where you could "borrow" one from. I'd sure like to "borrow" it.
Be it known to friend and foe: I've got the whole week scheduled off. Miles, Kaywoodie, Blue, Ed, Ed, Doc and anyone else that plans on arriving early, let me know. I'll meet you
at the campsite a few days early so that I can enjoy your company.

No need to bring a cannon from Iowa. If Mark can't bring one, I will ask around here.
