hey guys sorry im not going to be able to make it up to the River for the steel bash i was really looking forward to meeting a bunch of you guys as of right now i might be able to get up there saturday morning but ill have to leave in the afternoon..... so ill know a little more when its gets closer but its not looking good
I'll be rolling out Thurday night with Beeber. We're looking for cheap motel off 81 and get there early Friday AM
We're supposed to stay Fri/Sat in one of the spots Simms reserved, and assuming that is still on, if not we'll have to scramble. We're also planning on adding on Sunday night but haven't figured where to stay yet.
Haven't heard back from Simms yet...since he's a steel junkie and BASH advocate, I would assume he has bigger problems to deal with right now...
If you're going to be up there and would like to participate, please chime in
Twism has offered up wraps for lunch on Friday
I will get burgers for dinner on Friday night, if no grill maybe pizza/wings
Beeber will bringing Oktoberfest homebrew. I'll also have be stocked with beer and scotch that I can use help drinking...
Word from Simms: He is out. He has too much going on after the storm.
Unfortunately as I was in a room with him and 3 others (who also cant make it) I must bail as well. Sorry, but that also means no lunch. The big room he rented is now available as I think he will call and cancel. For you guys still going, I hope you can all have a good time and get some fish but this storm and gas problems proved too much for some of us.
Trout Guy, Phil and I will take those spots. Thanks!
TG, what days are you staying? (Beeber and I were planning on Fri/Sat/Sun)
And how many people are staying in your room?
Simms suggested we take over his reservation in the apartment. I talked to Sue @ Cannons, and she should be ok as long as we have 6 people...I think it fits more though
FlyI4 is also looking for a spot...
BASH ON!!!!!
Just got off the phone and we have secured the apartment Thurs-Sunday nights.
Lynch, she wants to move you over as well for Sat/Sun. I didn't want to speak for you, so I asked her to call you to confirm
If thats the case, we will the most people on Saturday night at 5...I also don't know if Lynch has anybody else coming with...
There are 7 beds (3 bunks and a double), and 2 pull outs...so we're set!!!
Twism and others, feel free to hop back in!!!
I was planning on coming up till the hurricane screwed everything up.
Made it thru the storm ok but the damage in my area was horrendous.
I am now on a 7 day work schedule as my company needs to catch up on shipments.
Have fun guys and wish I could make it up.
Tight lines
