Hooked a Pine Knot in 30 feet!  Now I just have to reel him in to Copia!

In all seriousness I hope the mrs. is doing well and things are looking up. 👍🙂

Friday night is our ‘Paddlers Rendezvous’. It’s a come & go gathering so it’s hard to say how many will be around at any given time. We usually put in an initial pizza order around 5:30-6:00 pm and additional orders after that according to need/desires. We usually have folks hanging out until about 10 pm or so. That’s about the time some folks start to think about getting sleep before the show the next day. We have no definite ‘end time’.

Short answer: yes, we should be around. Please stop in!  As in the past, we will have a ‘donation can’ to cover room rental costs. Our suggested amount is $5 per person per evening. We hope to see you there! It’s not necessary to ‘sign up’ for this event since pizza orders will be placed as needed.

We do request a ‘sign up’ for Saturday dinner. Thanks!

HnD,

I don’t think the group is against your suggestions, but when we asked for suggestions a month or so ago, the overwhelming favorite was to use Smoky Jon’s BBQ as we have in the past. We haven’t yet figured out the specific menu items because it depends on how many sign up for our Dinner. As it looks now, my best guess is that we will have a couple of meats and 2-3 sides. While BBQ isn’t typically vegan, there are some sides that may qualify. I’m not vegan so I’m not sure what qualifies. You’re welcome to browse their menu and make suggestions about what would be satisfactory.

I'd be down with coleslaw.  My trick will be how to not over eat.  That stuff is damn good!

My apologies for any misunderstanding that may have been created. Let me explain how our QJ Dinner works. If someone buys an individual plate, you get a 1/4 lb of meat along with two small sides. We are asking $15 per person and using bulk purchases for meats and sides. This works out to appropriate 1/2 lb per person and enough sides to be well satisfied.

To keep the economy of this intact, we cannot do special orders. If anyone wants to get their own food and bring it in, that’s ok. We ask $5 for our room rental.

Here’s what we’ll do. I’ll start a poll.
