    Site was $65 for the night, which I've gone ahead and booked. So looking at ~$16 each if it's the 4 of us.
    Unless something weird happens, I should arrive late afternoon or early evening on Thursday. I'll bring my share of the split. Just to confirm ,,, Site H, correct?

    As for the boil we'll go with potatoes, corn, andouille, and shrimp. And of course a little unyon, garlic, lemon, and some loooziana seasoning. I will bring a plastic table cloth and some butcher paper to dump the strainer contents on so we will just need to wrap it all up when were done and toss it in the dumpster. No mess, no critters.

    For those who have shellfish allergies, feel free to grab a bowl or two of the other ingredients before the shrimp goes in. Total cook time is approx 35 minutes and I'll start a little before 4:30.

    Looking forward to seeing everyone again!
    This is great, I am really looking forward to good food and fellowship. Can't wait to meet everyone!

    Just looked at the signup sheet. Wow what a great response. So much so that if you have a stand can you bring it just in case?

    Here's a graphic I created on Willy Weather for those who like visuals:

    Looks like we're in for some "Ranger Sunshine" as we used to say in the Army. On the positive side, I'll get to test out my recent seam seal job on my new winter tarp.
