Well, I mentioned it the other day on the General Forum in a sort of incidental fashion.  I suppose it is more appropriate to formally announce Jimboree #2 over here in the "Rendezvous" forum.  Without the ballyhoo & hype of last year's Bushwhackers Jamboree & its more "impromptu" shadow, Jimboree, we have planned another get-together in the Bush.

This year's trip will involve several QJ'ers, either travelling together or crossing paths between June 29 & July 8 in Argo-Darky-Brent-Suzanette region of the Park.  Taking some liberties here to divulge identities of participants (ie. suckers), our parties consist of Yellowbird, Kingfisher, Old Salt (our Chef) & his paddling partner "Pepper", QPassage, Matunik & his paddling partner The Fireman, & myself.  En route, we hope to visit with Arkansasman on Day One, somewhere in the vicinity of the Roland Chain.

Jimboree #2 will take place on a soon-to-be-christened & appropriately decorated  Flamingo Island #2.  It is located in eastern Brent Lake (possible locations = JM, LD, LC, or LW on the PCD map).  The date will LIKELY be Sunday, July 2nd, 2006.  As I mentioned over on the General Forum, "Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free."  We welcome such folks at Jimboree - or anybody else, for that matter - year after year.  With luck, we hope to run into Intrepid Camper & her party over there, too.  However, if ANY OTHER QJ'ers are in the general vicinity, DO DROP IN!

Old_Salt will be ready to feed the multitudes....

We shouldn't be too hard to find.  Look for the island with the large, dark clouds overhead, a downpour in between, and a soft pink glow somewhere down by the water.  If you smell fish frying & hear wild fish tales flying, you're at the right place....

Is a gathering of pink flamingos considered a flock, or is it a gaggle?

Would it look like this?

Just a note that may be of interest. 5 of the top 8 QJ posters (notice I did not call them IMposters) will be in Jimbo's gig, led by the leading QJ poster himself. There is also a rumor that another top poster may join us for a portion of our quiet journey. So, we will not lack for conversation and story-telling. Truth and getting a word in edgewise may be another issue.
