Well I was hoping to make this but I won't be back until late Saturday.
Stuck in Indiana after bugging out of NC because of the storm and they got hammered pretty good. That's why I'm in Indy.

Thanks Mitch.
If I can get back in time I'll see about trying to make it
There's a slight chance, but only slight. I won't have time to make any food though.

AWESOME! !
I'm making a smaller batch of pea soup. I usually go home with 3/4 of it.

Weather looks GREAT! Maybe the storm heading in Monday will move these pike to bite!!

We need results!

Sunday weather is looking ideal. Wind forecast has really died down.

Well gang, I dont know how i managed to screw up but I had it in my mind that Piketoberfest was on Saturday.
Maybe concentrating on getting back home in time to get there maybe did it.
make it there.
Trying to find transportation was a challenge.
Tried airlines and trains but discovered i couldn't afford the ridiculous prices they wanted. Tried car rentals again but couldn't find any cars available for the dates I needed. That left a 20+ hours bus ride. Stopping at nearly every town along the way. And getting no sleep.
Well the end of this story is that I'm already home and will be able to meet you all at the boat ramp area.
