I'm not sure how I'm getting to Yellow Pine CG, but will be there as early as possible. I may come up and spend a few nights prior in C3P4, bot I'm not sure yet.
Anyone willing to haul me up there? Pretty please with Chilo's Chile on it?

It shouldn't be a problem for me to pick you up, just don't know exactly when. That's a work week for me, may not start until Tuesday, hopefully Monday, and be about 3 days of work. Maybe 4. So worse case is I won't be able to leave until Friday. Boo.
You should probably find a ride to, I can give a ride home for sure. Planning on lingering for a few days after Facelift to get in my Valley time.

Just got word from Fattrad that meat fest is on for Saturday night. He requests that a minimum of 3 people bring charcoal.
Alright you guys and gals, step up and bring something tasty to contribute.
Thanks!
Edit, forgot, Fattrad has a meat fest Facebook page if you're into that kind of thing.
Khanom, Vicki, are you coming?
Miss LynneL...Tasty tortilla soup?
Edit, The big bags.

Susan Meatfest is totally on. I think I missed out on the brownies last year! I'll have to be on it this year. Looking forward to seeing you and Michael again.
John your Kebob was becoming a tradition. You'll be missed.
Man Lilabean, brokendown and johntp aren't going to make it either; bummer. And I am pretty sure Skip and Eric are doing something else too.
Can't wait!!!

Looking forward to seeing you too!
Actually, I'm thinking I might have switched to chocolate chip cookies last year.
Back to Brownies this year!
See you soon!

DAMN, senorita! ^^^^
But work pays in so many ways.
Hope you do make the Meatfest, HJ.
I have beans covered, mostly, but need help.
I don't have a large pot, unless Mr. Flip Flop decides to bring the one I left in his truck at Shuteye last year (plus the glass lid).
I don't have a camp stove, either, but someone can probably provide one to simmer the offering.
They will be scratch beans, so they'll soak 24 hours prior to cooking.
There will need to be some fresh tomatoes, and Romas are the ones, not the fancy salad types. Boil them and let them cool to where the skin sloughs off easily.
I plan on adding in two small cans of salsa de tomate con jalapenos and three small cans of salsa de tomate and that's all--no beer in my beans, Maldaly, thanks.
Anyway, I saw GLee off just now. He spent the night here and we had some fun at Marie's Homemade Enchiladas and stopped in to watch the Pack and the Vikes at the Publick House.
I'm leaving in the morning and will get to the Village about 9 a.m.
See ya all when I see ya!
