    Ron and I should be there early- to- mid afternoon. Might camp near the Wise shelter tonight-- depends on the weather when we get there. Looking forward to seeing you folks again!

    Well I was almost packed-- and then it happened yesterday. My truck was in the shop for a repair to the tailgate. Supposed to be ready yesterday but they were behind. You would think 3 weeks would be enough time to fix a bend and repaint. Apparently not! So here I sit, with my thumb stuck somewhere.
    Looks like it will be a good year for y'all. Have a great hang.
    Think I will talk with slowhike to pass the weekend.

    Looks like most rain will be on Sunday. With only a small amount of rain other days. Some but not much rain Thursday.
    Friday and Saturday might not see any rain!

    Hickery, I look forward to seeing you and all the kool kids at Grayson!
    Am I one of the Kool kids? I'm coming up in the morning for one night.

    Just to update iceman857's weather predictions, forecasts from this afternoon are now saying the winds should die down quite a bit on Saturday, but now there's a chance of up to 0.15" of ice from Saturday night into Sunday. We had rain on and off all day Tuesday as well as Thursday morning, so expect soggy conditions, especially for the Thursday arrivals.

    Also, Joe dropped off the wood in this morning and we have hang tags ready & will drop those off at the camp site either Thursday afternoon or Friday morning unless someone stops in the office before 4 today. Y'all travel safely & see you soon!
