A big thanks to everyone who came out. We had a wonderful time and it was good to see old friends. Especially thanks to Thomas Foster for finding a venue and taking the lead on reserving the grounds. I think we’ll be back. In fact we’ve already started planning next year’s event over here:
We’ve seen a lot of new faces in the group over the years, but some have stayed on. There were several more that wanted to attend but had vehicle troubles or health issues that interfered right at the last minute. Still, for everyone that did attend, we had plenty (PLENTY) of good food, demonstrations and in-depth discussions. Some of us stayed up way too late, and everyone got up early. The kitchen facility was excellent, and the showers were just fine. Billy brought a grain puffer cannon contraption, which was very loud and very fun to watch. Most of our food was heated up in a rocket stove oven, also from the Norths. Wayne gave rides up and down the twisty backroads for anyone who would ride with him. And we ran my electric wood chunker for awhile, which is always fun.
