2-3 days, yes, and I could take 2-3 months off if I wanted to. I choose not to, because I know how much work it would require after the fact to catch up.I don't have an issue with 2-3 days, but extending to a week isn't appealing to me. To each his own.
Any of those places around there that have like a bunch of cabins on a river or lake? Like a small private thing? We might could get an option on something like that that would give us time to collect money, confirm reservation, etc., before the last day for full refund of deposit.
Most places work out that either 4 or 5 days rental is the same as a week. So if you can take of 3 days and a weekend, that's five days. Say you can get wed - sun off no prob, but some other guy can get sat - tue? Since 4-5 days cost the same as a week, why not buy the flexibility for both of you to make a nice trip out of it?
Yeah, even Scupper's place was a series of 3 different cabins altogether.Thursday through Sunday is enough reason for me to consider making the trip. I'm not staying there an entire week. (Basically I agree with charv)
Pretty sure rover will find a way to get us at least one boat. It only seats 4-5, but its not like we all have to fish at the same time.
exactly... there's a reason MH was never more than 3 days, and ZA is another good example. People go out hard and accelerate until they hit a wall. That usually happens day 2-3.
Once you get past 5-6 people involved, multiple interests need to be considered. Options are key. That was one of the beautiful things about weekends at Scupper'ss. Lots of stuff available: pontoon boat, ski boat, Guitar hero, arcade donkey kong, fishing, horseshoes, ping pong, golf, casino, strip club, hot tub, fire pit hangout, and I'm probably missing something.
I'll keep looking for the right spot/location. I'm certainly aware it's a pain in the butt to get out here and the last thing I want to do is pick a spot that's another 3 hours away by car after people have spent 4-5 hours in the air. Tricky dance, but we can figure it out.And you left out poker. I really enjoyed playing that at MHI and would have liked to do more of that and less of watching you guys play Guitar Hero, but I don't think Gatorman wanted me in on his poker games.
Watching fake guitar all weekend was my least favorite thing about Mellyhole III. That and my lack of consciousness for 89% of it.
Gator didn't want me in his card game either, I think, but that didn't stop me.Once we get a date set, dodging certain hang-ups like Memorial Day, Father's Day, and 4th of July, we could start researching properties. I'm guessing we'll need to work on a 2 house deal if enough people were involved. It's still possible, but would add another wrinkle.I could sleep on an air mattress or a couch. Good chance I'll pass out somewhere I'm not supposed to be anyway.I'll keep looking for the right spot/location.

"Jerry! Jerry! Jerry!"
Still alive and rooting for the raiders per facebook 5 hours agoWell all these years I never knew that.So what happened to him? He's a good guy.CoastGuardCGRDRJoe = Cigar Doctor Joe?Whatever happened to the cigar doc?You should have been there during Sunday Tailgating at PJ20. Explained the many times I've had to explain to Mrs. TF on "What I was doing" and "Who I was going with" for all of the FBGs that I have to TU and BeTheMatch.She's actually met Zilla, KidC, Gator, JoeT, Jplvr, Wilked and CGRDRJoeI have trouble convincing myself to meet dudes from the internet. So, the guys that have to do it with their wives crack me up to no end.I would love to hear that conversation.

Don't underestimate picking up a mattress and throwing it on top of the car for an hour ride while having to reach your hands out of the rear passenger window in order to make sure the mattress doesn't fall.that was funGator didn't want me in his card game either, I think, but that didn't stop me.Once we get a date set, dodging certain hang-ups like Memorial Day, Father's Day, and 4th of July, we could start researching properties.

Hood River is about 60 miles east of Portland down the Columbia River Gorge. It's the windsurfing/kitesurfing capital of the world, home of Full Sail Brewery, several wineries and fun little town. Great place for us to base ourselves with plenty of options. July 16th is open for the linked resort and this spot could fit as many as 25 people. $550 a night would be $1650 for 3 nights which would be $82.50 per person if we had 20 people sign up for this, less if we got 25.
fyi, TU and I are already discussing his first LSU game attendance. Seems like you need to make this trip to Tuscaloosa as well. Would be easier to find two tickets than one, I'm guessing and you seem to have a knack for finding cheap tickets into the game as well.July 16th? Sounds like we'll get to celebrate my 36th birthday. Honestly, if we have that many people involved, something like that would probably be ideal. I'm guessing there are lots of options available and if someone wants one activity over the other, I would guess multiple activities would be a short car ride away. 3 people might want to fish... bfd, hop in the car and show up at the lodge for dinner. Golf? Same differnece. Wine/beer tour? Covered. I wouldn't be too worried about jumping into confirmations just yet, but I think that's the right direction.
Livin' the dream.
if the Bills go to the Super Bowl, F Oregon...let's all meet up in Indianapolis to celebrate the victory!There's probably some ice fishing in February there. Not much else though.Livin' the dream.
My wife has extended family there. I think one of them found Peyton Manning's dog once after he got out. He was appreciative, and is apparently a pretty normal chap.But, not a REAL exciting town.if the Bills go to the Super Bowl, F Oregon...let's all meet up in Indianapolis to celebrate the victory!There's probably some ice fishing in February there.

I am IN for LSU/Bama. TF, you should come out. Oh, and July 16th is my birthday.
Brag: Bet McCoy and McFadden (and Rice) to win the rushing title. McFadden at +2200, the other two at +2000.Oh and Arian Foster. But I just took him off the board.
There are "trusted sellers" and such on there, no? I don't eBay much.Yeah I know, I've got a feeling those are fakes though.TF> I'd like to, but I'm afraid that thing is going to be worth a lot of dough in 30 years. I don't want to have sad stories like my dad about how his Mom threw out his Mickey Mantle card.There are some copies avail. on eBay for ~100$ or so.
Atta boy!Did other stuff for the first time in a while.I'm gonna be up 'til ZTuesday.
Maybe use that time to update us on how your video game playing?Did other stuff for the first time in a while.I'm gonna be up 'til ZTuesday.
As a former newscaster, I'll be the first to say that wouldn't mean anything.It would be funny to see that as a news story though.
Happy birthday, dude.Atta boy!Did other stuff for the first time in a while.I'm gonna be up 'til ZTuesday.
No! Bad Homer!!!Atta boy!Did other stuff for the first time in a while.I'm gonna be up 'til ZTuesday.
Basically, you want to please two groups. Group 1: Fishing, hunting, hiking, sasquatch spotting, etc.Group 2: Booze, bars, titty joints, gambling, etc.If you can find a middle ground that's close to Portland, you're everyone's hero.I'll keep looking for the right spot/location. I'm certainly aware it's a pain in the butt to get out here and the last thing I want to do is pick a spot that's another 3 hours away by car after people have spent 4-5 hours in the air.

Seriously, I'm an idiot.No! Bad Homer!!!Atta boy!Did other stuff for the first time in a while.I'm gonna be up 'til ZTuesday.
Trust me, I would love to come...just not in the cards unfortunately.

Or, you know, something else entirely. Way to call it a season, Giants.
13-7. I believe that puts me 7 above .500 on the year. (43-36)
Thank you for winning me money.
+3.4 units with standard vig.
options is the key word I think...
