    Some pictures of the Mecks palace....

    If you have seen the original palace, you will notice that unlike the original, this tarp does not go all the way to the ground. Mom Meck said this because the first one trapped moisture underneath it. The new and improved model allows for more air flow and prevents moisture built up inside

    Of course Kingsford and Hotlips had to get one....and this was it first time in use... Mom and Dad Meck jumped in to help
    Unfortunately, the photos I took of the actual tarp were blurry....the green lights around the entrance made an interesting night shot

    As large as the tarp is ( 21+ yards of fabric ) it is very light weight

    Great pics Gunner!

    Pyro and I got home in an hour and 15 minutes with no issues.

    We really enjoyed spending time with everyone again, and getting assistance in improving the way we had our stuff set up from Gunner, Pappy, and the Mecks.

    The burger fatties Stubby made were insanely good, as was the dutch oven chicken pot pie, cobblers, spaghetti and chili...all served at dinner Saturday!

    Hotlips, I was in my food box almost the entire time I was there!

    Our supplier of the forbidden treats came thru again...many were consumed and some were roasted over the camp fire

    The Mecks delivered Tacoma's new hammock and he had to set it up to try it that night
    Only problem is that Tacoma's wife decided she liked the hammock and its her's now

    I think a lot of guys were. As a matter of fact, when Critter Man and his bunch left, he even said "we're hungry, guess which box we're in?, the food box" LOL. I'm sure there are boobies in that box too, according to Critter man.
