Wow. Maybe I won't go on this trip after all.

€uroMeinke · 03-12-2008, 11:09 PM

I plan on doing some reading, maybe some witting, and mixing cocktails

Gemini Cricket · 03-12-2008, 11:15 PM

I'm going to buy a hammock. And then, I'm going to sit in the hammock.

€uroMeinke · 03-12-2008, 11:18 PM

Yes. Lisa and I are starting Hammockland USA at one of the campsites.

Sorry, but I won't be able to contribute to the bar. I already drank it all while reading this thread.

I've already got a two-person hammock that is great for snuggling with my honey, but I so want a hammock chair. Gonna check in the Mexico ports in May.

Perhaps someone from Team Discovery Channel would be kind enough to shoot me a pm and let me know if that's okay with them before I change us over in the wiki?

Well. after a unilateral choice of meal was made by one member of Team Discovery Channel, I hesitate to speak for the team without consulting my mates.

But here's my thoughts:

Pro: I'd love to have Goonie and Shawshank on my team. Why the hell not? Well, see Cons below.

Cons:
A) We already have two tents on our campsite. Our physical campsite is full. That's ok, because I am not buying into the fiction that meal teams must occupy the same site simply because they are preparing one meal together. Just like last time, I will camp at whatever available site tickles my fancy, without regard to what tickles my mates' fancies.

But, of course, that doesn't help "save" you guys a camp site for arriving late. I'm sure, however, there will be enough spare junk among the lot of us to fake-up an occupied site for any latecomers.

B) We already have two pot-luck meals because we don't have enough teams as there are group meals. So I don't particularly see the point of consolidating that even more. But, ya know, whatever. It's all good.

As of now (and we have plenty of time to work this all out, without argument or hurt feelings) that either leaves us with two meal teams consisting of 3 and 2, or one team with 5.

Personally I don't care. Neither G.C. or I can cook worth a damn, so if Goonie or Shawshank have any mad food prep skillz, we'll likely welcome them with open arms.

But it's already looking like Sunday dinner AND Monday breakfast are kitchin-sink meals ... and I have ZERO problem with that (last year's last day breakfast was one of the --- if not THE --- best meals at Swank Camp).

Let's see what the other Team Discovery Channel boyz chime in with.

Don't forget us disciples of the Black Junk who haven't signed up for a meal slot yet.

Or, forget, and we'll serve up chopped liver.
