    Many many thanks to Gunner76 for hosting/organizing. Many thanks to PappyAmos for lending me an Underquilt. I didn't end up using it but it was comforting having a backup. I'm proud to say my DIY Underquilt is rated to 21* (after some ghetto adjustments). With a little Dutch gear i will cure the ghetto rigging of it. Much thanks to everyone that played a part in cooking! These hangs would be nearly as good without the food that we being together.

    I thought boy scouts knew how to make fires, though that pork fat makes you feel wonderful after a shower. I was bias and cranky so that's all I've got to say about my piggy shower.

    Josh, Jon, and I took the plunge for the long hike. We were a little dissapointed at the scenery, only saw the Millpond at the beginning and end, saw only 9 deer run across the trail, spotted an out of place bathroom, and a crazy tree.

    Thanks to gunner and everyone for everything. Had a blast on my first group hang and a new record low in all my DIY gear.

    ..... and a set of ridgeline party lights included in a $50 order from dutch. The only bad thing about the group hang is that I saw many cool things that I want to buy.

Oh and Gunner you forgot to not the party lights on the stand that almost put everyone into seizures friday night.
    We'll have to get you a "green card" so as you can travel safely down here!
    You also HAVE to try both Cheerwine and Sundrop out of GLASS bottles. 2 liter plastic is ok for cooking with but not fro drinking and aluminum cans??? blech!
