It looks like we have a pretty good crowd coming, and I use the word pretty because of the wives that will be in attendance.

We made it!
We'll have at least 2 guests, not sure if any of the kids/grands/great grand will make it.
That's the boss' department.
I've got to go to the office at 2pm to check in, we caught them on their lunch break.
I'll go check out the pavilion and update on the power and water situation.
The mini-mart across the road from the park advertises a beer cave.
I might do a little spelunking.

And I'm back.
Do not go spelunking in the beer cave across the road from the park.
$25 for a 12 pack of Modelo.
Yikes!
It IS tasty, though.
1 outlet at the shelter, about 6' off the ground.
I didn't have anything to test it with, we'll have to assume that it works.
The only water that I saw was a non-functioning drinking fountain.
I have a couple water jugs that I'll bring, so about 6 gallons for cleaning and such.
I'd plan on bottled water for any cooking or drinking needs.
The shelter hasn't been cleaned lately.
If anyone has a leaf blower, it would be handy.
I have a small broom I'll bring.
The fireplace looks functional, the oven on the side looks questionable.
Someone left a garment, I didn't check to see if it was tops or bottoms.
Next trip to the ranger station, I'll ask if they plan to clean the shelter before Saturday.

BTW, 2 of the 3 campground loops are being rebuilt, which explains the lack of available sites.
Thanks for the recon, Terry. We'll get it functional. It's a shame they didn't clean it any better than that.
I hope that outlet werks, I’ll need it 
What time do people plan on showing up on Saturday?
930-10 for me
I'll be there pretty early to get things started.
I've got a pretty long commute, Ron, 
, but I will meet you whenever you get here.

Picked up some Carroll's sausage on the way up, sorry
We're staying at the avid hotel on 40. About a 15 minute drive.
I'm planning on having a stuffed breakfast fatty ready fairly early, 9ish or so.
I'll shoot for being there by 0800 and get the kettle going.
Tomorrow will be prep day.
I've got the beans soaking, I'll assembly the fatty and bacon wrapped livers tomorrow.
I've got homemade Cajun and Bourbon Chipotle sausage as well.

Wish we could be there! Hit a shot of Malort for me. 
Mike, I would do you one better and we'll just send the bottle to you, but I'm sure the United States Postal Service would classify that as hazardous material.
Would love to be here
Post lots of Pics
We'd love to have you here, George!
Meanwhile, prep for the beans.
Next up will be the eggs for a stuffed fatty.

As of now, we'll have a total of at least 6, possibly 8 folks tomorrow.
Stopped for a late lunch at the Edinburgh Diner. A couple pork tenderloin sammiches.
