Default Fordyce: Sept. 14. 2008

I am officially trying to plan a try to Fordyce this coming weekend on Sunday Sept 14th 2008. Hopfuelly to have a early run so everyone can finish the trail early and go home.

Now the question is... who can make to this trip?


I am planning to camp at the Indian Camp ground which located 45 sec drive to the trail head. The pay($10 or so) camp site offers restroom, running water, fire pit, and table. It is right off the HWY-80 with gas station within 1.5 miles drive.

I'll talk to Sean- It is possible we may come up and camp- but without new tires I can't go very far in the trail.

Default And yet another hobby

We are more than likely out- Sean got the flat bottom started and it looks like we will be on the lake camping.

It has been a long term restore project and It was really something to see it start up.

No, like if I get called in and I'm not in the hospital within 30 minutes, somebody may die! And I would be next!

The last weekend of September, you may get me to go. You may have to talk Kristen into it. I've been doing a lot of wheeling lately! She loves it too, but has limits.
