Pfft. You survived Camp 2 to Hanging Gardens. You still "going out of town" this weekend? Chris said he'd let us change the date for you ;)

Oh. I thought Camp 1 was last year. Now I feel like a pansy. Thanks Mike.

Yes, I am still in "Chicago" next week and have to miss Manping (which even though it would kill me, I really am bummed. I had a BLAST last year and wish I could go this year for real.) I was Santa Barbara last week (Sunday / Monday), on at CCV this weekend (keyboards), Chicago next weekend (work), CCV after that (interpetive dance team), then Santa Barbara again the weekend of Jon and Dana's move in (work)... :(

I shall return in September. 8)

Anyone have a gun I can borrow?

That guy is so cool. He is the hero to my friend Brian aka avg size jesus... He is always barefoot.
and yes I have a gun you can use. Just give me a call sometime this week.

Man I keep watching the weather but they keep changing it around.
As of now, it's saying no rain for our trip. Guess we'll see.

Unfortunate to report Spshl J is out due to knee surgery (ruining his perfect record).
And has two memorial services he has to go to now for students at his school.

May be we should make the trip harder still now ;)

But the LORD said, "The men are still too many; bring them down to the water, and I will test them for you there. Then it will be, that of whom I say to you, 'This one shall go with you,' the same shall go with you; and of whomever I say to you, 'This one shall not go with you,' the same shall not go. And they shall be-eth the three best friends that anybody could have, the three best friends that anybody could have, the three best friends that anybody could have, and they shall not ever ever ever ever leave each other."

Final Attendants: Skatchkins, Offroadaz, Silversides

I really wish I could go! Guess the men have been separated from the boys! If there's a backpacking trip between this manmping and the next post it up because I'd like to tag along!

Because of you, we won't have a shuttle vehicle and Offroadaz will have to ride 7mi back after the hike out on his mtn bike lol

hahaha well it looks like I owe somebody! ;)

ultralights the way to go, my pack with 3 days of supplies weighs in at only 22lbs

I'm somehow only at 27 :)

You my friends are winning at life and I salute you with every muscle of my manly body.
