[gus13]

well I still made it! was down to the horse camp. i.e. the swamp! but weather saide I had an absolute blast! got to catch up with some old friends and make some new ones in the process, just like any other rendezvous! :hatsoff:

 

[RC]

bet we had supper together friday night gus????????

 

[gus13]

that was a great supper! that venison was great, but I was in love with the BBQ pork myself!

 

[RC]

biggest problem weren't nothin bad and alot of it all! weren't fer the damn rain it'd been a perfect night!

 

[gus13]

yeah that last rain was the killer for me... I was fine with the weather before that, mostly because it was really warm, and I knew I was there so "enjoy it while I can" kinda thing, but the night before leaving? :barf: luckily it was a nice day when I was packing so I still could pack mostly dry stuff!

 

[RC]

:shocked2: you had dry stuff??????? I had dry stuff..about 4 days later!

 

[gus13]

wellluckily I had moved out of the swamp with a little help from some friends, so I was pretty dry, up until it rained! but like I said the un came out and helped dry me out a bit before I packed so I was pretty good to go! course I also didn't leave til nearly 2 in the afternoon!

 

[RC]

we packed early...everything wet, but no matter no cap on truck an it rained 1/2 the way home............sorta a rinse cycle!
:haha:

 

[gus13]

:haha:
yeah, I hit rain about the same time I hit D.C! not a good combo for a country boy like myself. needless to say next time I have to go to VA I will NOT be going through D.C. even if I have to drive an hour and a half out of the way to avoid it!

 

[RC]

lol! yup we took the long way round DC.....was worth it! now if we can rid ourselves of n.y, city an newark,,it might be a pleasant trip!
