Just a heads up as I don't want anyone to think anything happened to me come Wednesday, as you see that will be the day I'll be setting up for Fur Trade Days and waiting for Rondo to show up with his plews and rattle snake juice....  :laffing  :*:

Weez gonna need us a good spitter and a back up spitter if'n we're gonna milk 'em.  Uncle Russ, how far can you spit (just in case Rondo dries up a'bit before we fill that second jug)... :toast

Sure wish you could be there Russ. It'd be shining times!  :*:

Rondo, I should be in camp when you get there, and I'll sure help you set up.

Thanks Joe, wish it was possible for me to meet with you guys, but that ain't going to happen so you guys have yourself a great time, and be safe.
Take a bunch of pictures, that'll work.

That way we can all enjoy the Voo with ya!   :*:

Yes, be sure to share pictures with us. It's been a long time since I  went to an organized event; I think the last one I went to was the AMM nationals in 2005 near Grangeville,  Idaho.
