Yeah, I'm not sure how many people are going to head over Friday. Some are going to mosey over starting Thursday. I'll be at the Pine Cone restaurant I-5 & HWY 34 leaving at 8:30 AM. You're more than welcome. If you're late, no problem, I'll meet you in John Day! :)

I'm planning to finish my trailer today so I can bring a chain saw and a few extras.

I might also move a little slower so I guess I'm still on the fence between Thursday and Friday.

Have any idea what the regulations are on chain saws and fires, where we are headed?

I'll let you know for sure by Thursday afternoon, if we are leaving early.


Anyone heading out Thursday, any "carpooling" going on?

It's Thursday night and I'm still working on stuff.

I hope to still make it, but it's getting late......

It was a great time. I hadn't spent any time in this part of Oregon before so the scenery was just amazing. We also ended up spending time in a mining town called Sumpter which was having some sort of carnival. It was like a big fair going on with a mining and western theme. Way fun... the pictures of the restored gold dredge and of other mining memorbilia should be inspiring. Oh yeah, there was natural wonders too! :)
