Only when the last tree has died and the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught will we realize we cannot eat money.

We will probably be there mid day or so on Wednesday. Things changed a bit on my end and we are now planning to leave Tuesday evening. But there will be some sleep involved in this trip.

Hey Mike,  we might need help setting up the Taj Mahal. Yep we are talking the big tent!

It looks like rain, with a side of rain is on the menu for Michigan next week.  No matter, we'll build an ark if needed!  ...anybody know what Gopher wood trees look like?

It may have been stated earlier, but I meant to ask, what is the availability of Fire Wood like there?  Shall I pack some in or plan to pick it up there?  Is there perhaps a local vendor anyone can recommend?

There is usually a huge pile of wood. Hopefully there is again this year. The weather may only allow a fire or two at night. Most nights are consumed by bow building under the pavilion.

We should be pulling in Thursday's afternoon. I don't know how auction works, I won't have a lot of $$ to spend but I'm hopeing  to get some HHB split and donate a couple. Think got everything working in brothers camper. Is it ok to use a Honda generator he has one I could bring? From what I can see chance of rain every day but no big amounts, of course it Michigan anything can happen.

My opinion on generators? If its not medical related, its generally not welcomed by many. None are really quiet when your sleeping in a tent 20 feet away. But, if its for medical reasons, I'm all for it!

Most wont say what they think, but I'm not that guy :) I generally speak my mind when it needs to be said, within reason and as politely as possible. Please don't take it the wrong way.

Thanks for being honest about it that's why I asked I understand 100 percent. I might bring it to use some I day time. If it gets real hot could be a medical my wife doesn't take the heat very good.
