I'm not going to put a map up here or anything, because this is still an open forum, but I figured it might be helpful to talk about what to bring and all.
I'm packing: - my tent - a couple changes of clothes - my trench tool - a frying pan - a beer cooler - air mattress - quilts or sleeping bag - hoody - warm hat - extra socks - beer - food (speaking of, how do we want to work that out? everyone make their own grub?) - charcoal for the grill - pocket knife
What else?

it might be easier if everyone just fends for themselves in the food dept. i mean, last time i went home with an empty stomach. (of course that was probably because all my food ended up in the toilette or on the bathroom walls. ick! damn flu. hahahaha!) seriously though... let folks bring and cook their own food and drink "stuffs". no one person needs to be stuck taking orders and playing chef to a large group. it's too diverse with meaters and vegers and lushes and edge and such. only thing i can see to add would be a chair? haha. i felt a little bad being the only one with a sitting utensil. i've got a couple of quetions though.. -you mentioned that your dad was renting a porta potty, is that a for sure? -do you know what time you'll be heading out of town? i may forego the map and just follow you down. -is parking pretty close to where we'll be setting up or will we be hauling all of our stuff across a football field? (that may limit how much misc crap i bring!) -is there like a picnic table or something out there? (if not i've got a little fold-up card table thingy) -did you get blow-up mattresses for all? (this ain't the holiday inn ya know, ya spoiled brat) i'm sure i'll think of a lot of other questions. i'm not being picky, mind you, i don't care if it's an empty lot. just trying to be prepared and figure out what i need to bring.

Down the Suwanee River, but it's while the guys are in Savannah this time. We'll go out again soon and see if we can't get you and Scabz out.
Debbie: bring your own grub sounds good to me.
-you mentioned that your dad was renting a porta potty, is that a for sure? Portajohn is a go.
-do you know what time you'll be heading out of town? i may forego the map and just follow you down. To be honest, I don't know how I'll get down there - I was going to offer to pay someone gas money and ride along. I want to get out of town as close to noon as we can manage, and let folks that need to come later bring up the rear.
-is parking pretty close to where we'll be setting up or will we be hauling all of our stuff across a football field? (that may limit how much misc crap i bring!) Parking is pretty much right there. Very close, but not on top of us.
-is there like a picnic table or something out there? (if not i've got a little fold-up card table thingy) A-yup. There's a picnic table. All the mod cons.
-did you get blow-up mattresses for all? (this ain't the holiday inn ya know, ya spoiled brat) Only for thems as want to cuddle me. And you know how I snore.

Hank if I go with you guys I will be down for you to ride with me. There will be no need for you to pay gas as well. As long as I can get one egg in a hole cooked for me. I will provide the food for it. My only question is what is the cooking situation like? because if we got a lot of people trying to cook a lot of different thing this could pose a problem. -shane

Yeah, man, I'll cook you an egg in a hole. It shouldn't be too much hassle with folks cooking if we sort of swap in turns. I'm bringing lunch meat for myself so I don't have to hassle with the fire or grill much.

shane why are you even teasing us with all the "maybe i will, maybe i won't" balogna? make up your mind!!! you KNOW you want to play in your big-assed tent for a weekend! and you can't get much cheaper than camping. you'd spend more money if you stayed in tally and hit the bars. plus, you know you're supposed to have things covered while you're in savannah, but what about those lunch/breakfast stops on the way up and back? and besides, if you don't go who will utterly destroy the porta-potty??? convinced yet? hehehe! and actually, i can get mine. that tent's really not so bad when you know what you're doing and can SEE where things go. but i'll def help you get yours set up. and hank really needs to train you in the school of "eggs in a hole". poor man. can't make himself a damn meal.... hank, i thought you were driving down? i'd love the company, but you know how tiny my car is. there's no way we'll get both of our gear in there. i mean, i love my car, but i don't even have a glove compartment to hold your wallet in. plus, still no speedometer. i need a "rabbit" to chase. hmmm...

Hell no, my car wouldn't make it. I've got to catch a ride with someone (maybe I can throw my gear in with Jacob and Shannan, ride with you, and we'll all go down there at once).
I just found out that Billy's job sucks, and they won't make it until Saturday afternoon.

oh man, that sucks! i was hoping we'd have them for the whole of the weekend. damn.
well, i think my car will be okay for the trip. but i'm still lacking in the speedometer area which doesn't make me feel really comfortable. jacob, what time are you and shannan planning on hitting the road?

I think Thursday, but I could be wrong. We should make him put his travel schedule on the calendar.
