Sounds like mojam is going to be the best one yet! I will bring as many jugs/pop bottles as I can.  I may also see if I can work on some arrows,  not sure though. Might have to cut some limbs when I get there and make some disposable arrows! Got a job today but I have the week of mojam off! I hope I can bring everything I need this year!

I would love to do the dutch oven cake for Loyd!

Congrats on the gainful employment, Mr Pat!

For consistency sake, maybe we should stick to just the rectangular-shaped gallon and 1/2 gal milk type jugs.

We have a Dairy bottling plant here in Springfield that is really near to my house (Highland Dairy).  I have a call into them to see about getting them to donate some empty milk jugs.  We'll see...

You guys really need to drink more milk. Seriously sounds like your gonna have a great mojam. Don't forget to take lots and lots of pictures.
PS you don't need to save the jug caps we don't use them. Gotta let the air in the top so the water can come out.

Now bj,  us rednecks down here would just tie them up in a big fish net and put them on top of the truck.   :laugh:

That's definite possibility, bj. But we are also enlightened . . . . we'd hang red kerchief from the last one.

I am preparing myself for the MOJAM heat this weekend. The OSS campout is this weekend and they are expecting 100+ degree weather for the event. I should be heat tempered by then.
