Hey Freaks,
Let’s get this forum going with a head count and then maybe other topics will follow.
FIRST: Who all is coming? What days will you be there?
(when you reply you must check the box below “Notify me of follow-up replies via email” YOU MUST CHECK THIS BOX!!!
Abby and I are coming. I’ll be there on Thu and Abby is joining on Friday afternoon.
Steve and Juliana will be there Thursday thru Sunday.
Thursday night should be fun. Sunset is around 8:30pm but like Cyd pointed out we are in a densely wooded valley and should be able to start movies at 8pm or sooner.
Looking forward to seeing you all again! Wooooo.
Antonio and I will be there. I’ll be there Thursday and Antonio might make it Thursday, but by Friday fo sho.
I can’t wait! Love all of you freaks and can’t wait to see you all!
Cyd
Aaaaah! I forgot to check the box!
I will be there later on Friday – before sunset – through to Sunday.
Brian will be arriving with Sandy — not sure when they plan on getting there.
Slaughter!
Kate
The Kyles are planning on heading out on Friday and leaving Sunday.
I will be arriving Thursday and Alex will be there on Friday afternoon
Jen and I will be there Friday and Saturday night for sure. Maybe Thursday night…
Shelley and I will be coming out Thursday late afternoon, leaving Sunday
The Davis of the Micheles will be arriving Thursday evening and I am staying forever and ever and ever.
I think Steve already said that I will be there Thursday through Sunday. Looking forward to a seedy Sweet Home dive bar Thursday night!
Sorry for joining the conversation late… blame Grimm! I will travel out Friday afternoon, and stay through Sunday.
As expressed in email yesterday, I am happy to carpool (Abby, sorry, I got home late and neglected to call you last night) – Alex? Antonio? Everyone welcome – I have a big car (and company-reimbursed gasoline!!)
I like pie.

Are we having a pie fight or something?
i like pie.
i like pie.
OK. I had to pull the “i like pie” option to get everyone on the same forum.
If you don’t like pie or are allergic to pie I apologize.
Now that everyone is on the General forum Kevin has a bit of a downer announcement about fires.
Kevin?
I love pie
I’m ambivalent about pie
I like pie. Ala mode.
Congratulations to Byrd for his wedding recently .
Byrd, do you think you will make it to Slaughter this year? We would all love to see you!
I like cake.
I do indeed like pie. I cannot lie.
I’ll be coming with Cyd (others?) Thursday afternoon, staying through Sunday.
I am going to guess this mysterious Kevin is going to tell us we can’t have fires.
I sincerely hope no one is allergic to pie. I mean, if you think you hate pie, it makes me want to help you find the pie that is right for you.
I am also a fan of pie, although I am willing (very willing) to venture into the land of cobblers, buckles, betties, crisps, grunts AND slumps… I hope that others are brave enough to follow.
I like pie ala flambe! Set that fucker on fire! Or am I stealing Kevin’s thunder? Is this the same fire announcement that he is to make?
And on a non-pie topic, Alexandra! I’d love to ride down with you. But what time are you planning to leave? I’d love to get there before 5:00 or even earlier if possible. Whatcha thinkin’?

Check out the Stalk/Blog/”Munchies” thread for discussion about a group dinner. Looks like we have a go but some haven’t got the hang of the various thread s available in the blog area, so take a look if you haven’t.
Kevin’s fire notice = No Fires is in the, wait for it, the “Possible (Definite) Fire ban in effect” thread. So no Wicker Man reenactment this year.
I will definitely be there. Probably on Friday.
Oooh, I see my nom de karaoke will be attending in my place! π
Alexandra, I think you will not be there. Instead, I will be there twice. Alex and Alexandria. π
Alex, do a good job for all three of us!
Drusilla wanted me to let you all know that she will be arriving on Thursday afternoon. All she asks is that a cocktail be ready for her
I’m late to a couple parties/threads, here (one of them started by me), but real quick:
1) I like pie almost as much as Special Agent Dale Cooper
2) The fire ban thing, for those of you who didn’t see the other thread or see Shawn’s post above, is that we ain’t allowed no fires this year. I put “possible ban” in the thread title, but it’s looking more and more definite. The ban also prohibits smoking unless it’s in vehicles or buildings, or buildings that move like vehicles – such as Baba Yaga’s hut, or the building those accountants sailed in “The Meaning of Life” . Campstoves and gas bbqs are still okay. No idea if this affects generator usage or not – we will of course plead ignorance if it does, or else eat whatever ranger tries to stop said usage, for one of our communal meals.
Sorry to be Kevvy Caca-on-the-Campout, but still looking forward to it π
— IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT —
Alrighty. I just received a prerecorded message from the State of Oregon as part of our reservation. As to fires, no open fires, tiki torches, fire pits. Gas cooking and lights are okay. There was no mention of smoking. (They do encourage smoking mariuana but no bongs taller than 4 feet.) π
So no Tiki torches. I guess the naked Tiki torch dance party is off. Oh well.
Steve, we could potentially rig up some battery powered candles to tiki torches. I’d hate to miss the naked tiki dance!
Cud has a very good point – we can tap into the Denny for this! Dance, baby, dance to the Tiki gods!
Just posted to the “Munchies” thread to finalize the Sat dinner line-up.
I just posted a blog entry for a couple of Bigfoot sightings near our campsite. Are you a “Harry and the Hendersons” non-believer or “Willow Creek” believer?

Slaughter!
As always, The Davis with come prepared. https://youtu.be/fsEr78s_d4s
Also, for those who are likely to just stare into the sky at night, there is the possibility of seeing meteor showers:

Oy! Sweet Home 10 day forcast predicts fairly tame weather but note, 50% chance of showers Friday. So bring your rain fly. Again, there are plenty of trees, so with the “showers” we’ve had so far this summer, the rain may only reach the ground in a few spots, but better safe than wet all night.
Now to write my packing list!
– IMPORTANT NOTICE –
The common area for our outdoor theater is occupying the first camp site past the toilet on the right as you pull in. If you arrive before I do on Thursday, do not set up your stuff there. Also, for proximity to the common area, and convenience of backing in trailers and generator hookup, the 2 camp sites directly across from the common area are reserved for me and Sean’s trailers.
The front gate code is 4208. We will be closing and locking the gate each time we come and go. I’ve been told closing the gate will keep the local inbreds and Bigfoots out. We’ll see.
Checkin time: 2pm
So here’s a question and it’s probably on here somewhere already. I can see the map but I can’t print it out and it would be good if I knew where I was turning off of 20. Please help this naked virgin find her way to safety from the inbred zombie hillbillies
Michele and others,
After leaving Sweet Home look for the Fernview Campground sign on the right just past mile marker 51. Turn right at the sign, cross a bridge and take the next left up a hill. You will see a gate into the campground.
About half way down Cyd’s blog is a picture of the Fernview sign.

Cheers, Steve
i like shooting stars, bloody mayhem and pie/lemon bars
One last thing. We will need $22 from everyone. This covers Fernview Campgound fees and generator gas money.
Thanks, see you there!
BRING OUT YOU DEAD!

Thanks.
Is there anybody. out thereβ¦
Winter is coming…
Well, definitely faster than it’s been coming on GOT.
It looks like this year, we’re finally going to experience the full, snow-bound, stranded in an arctic hell, icy polar nightmare that we always wanted.
