    I am using @thetrim to send along some liquid refreshment (assuming he makes it) thanks to that debacle of last December.  
    Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win.  Life is too short for light/lite beer!  Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.

    You’ll be there in spirit.  I really hoped you’d be there in person for some high quality joint Operations.

    I think @CTMike had floated the idea of doing a whole hog on his Shirley, and some folks had offered to pitch in for the groceries. 

    I'm still in, if someone is keen on figuring out the logistics. 
    We’ve been talking, and Mike still plans to do that.  We will make it happen for sure!
    I will definitely be there, dragging Ol’ Mortimer along behind us. The grate size is 29 1/2” by 70”. Plenty of room for a 200# hog.

    @lousubcap, @CTMike and I have shown that Army and Navy guys can get along pretty well when coming together for good events like this.  The petting zoo may change things though.

    Just put in for PTO on 4/20, guess I'm official. I don't have a hotel, cabin, or campsite booked, maybe I'll just sleep in my trunk.

    No, it is the night before Friday night. I've been confused by the calendar this week as well, snow days got me all screwed up.

    Just responded to a message from the_Stache about BB. He will be in attendance. One of the nicest young men y’all will meet. 
    (Got you fooled!!)
    Nice. Young. @The_Stache your account got hacked I think. 

    You still planning on riding up with us? 
    Unless you forget to pick me up along the way!!!
    @Possumtrot not going to make it?
    Nope, he is self punishing himself by buying a new house and moving! :) As of now, only the dynamic part of the duo will be showing up!

    Give him enough to drink and you'll see how dynamic he is - just don't let him have any of his imperial stout in his cute little keg- very dangerous.  Don'e ask how i know.  Actually his Belgian is almost lethal.

    We'll be trying to get the new house straight for Saint Sandy (happy wife, happy life) so I won't be able to make it.  The only travel allowed right now is to her 50th college reunion in April.

    I sure hope to make it fellows. I really need to attend something like this and just unwind with good friends and good food. Have had a lot on me the past few months. It would really do me good to just kick back and relax with y’all. Hope to see y’all there. 
    When @SGH writes “...Have had a lot on me...” he is referring to clothes.  He needs a chance to run nekkid and howl at the moon.
