I'm with you.

I was wondering about you and if you're still going.
It would make a good write-up, we should get as many Buses as possible. END OF THE WORLD

Cold, yes - but in the wilderness on the Solstice. Pretty powerful stuff.
For some reason it's always bearable though, you'd be surprised .

Panty waste, that is how you spelled it. What does it conjure? Ewwwwwwww.
Pantywaist is of course higher up near the waist even. You don't think I actually get butthurt around here after all that has transpired over the years?

So, who's going? Just Hammy & I again? It would be nice to share this rare experience with others.

Colin, you should come out to one of our camps. They're not all in the cold & snow. We'd love to see you at Hambone Springs in the summer!

I'm in, no shock there. Can't wait! Eva is out however, "too cold".
What about the rest of you bastards?
I'm thinking plan A is Pot Creek, Plan B is one of the MHNF Clackamas River campgrounds.

I'm planning on going at least for one night. Maybe Friday night too depending on when I can get out of work.
Chorizo, it's what's for breakfast.
