You bet Jimbo. Love to have you come on out.
I just bought a new tent, and a couple cots, your welcome to use one of them cots if you want. Ill cover the food too. All you need to do is show up.

oh and if you guys make it down there again and go camping you may want to stop at the local "guys" establishment called Kappa Cabanna just off the Kappa exit on 51. great place to spend some $1 bills.

Sept 24th-26th. Im getting stoked now. I have another buddy (Dan) tentatively coming too. If you want to bring someone that's cool too. The more the merrier. Plenty of room in camp for 2 big tents and my dining fly, and plenty of room to beach boats. If its jsut the 3-4 of us we can all fit in my tent, or Dan has a bigger one he could bring. If it is the three of us, mind if we use your boat? Mines a little small for 3, can be done if needed, one of us will have to sit on the livewell. This is a primative site and the best way to get there is via boat. TEntative menu. Friday night dinner- MRE's Sat dinenr- fish fry with potatoes, and corn on the cob.

Yea, Im looking forward to this trip. For the rest of you the back story goes like this. Marine Corp jungle Warfare Training in Panama right after Grenada. I sliced my knee cap open with a Machette while busting trail. Spent the night under the Panamanian sky watching the bats. Next day got hauled out 3 miles through thick rough junlge terrain on a stretcher to the nearest road. Spent the next 6 weeks on crutches. MikeF,
