My mom used to sing a song about a Paw Paw patch. She grew up in the south so maybe she’s had some. I’ll have to ask her.

Hey hammertime83, where in VB county did you grow up? I’m from Stockport.

I just want to say that a few of the folks on this site are absolutely wonderful people! It does my heart good to know there are guys like you out there.

To the 2 that sent me messages. My mom actually sent me some money to help me out so I will have enough to make it up there, with my camper and all!

I so cannot wait to get out of here for a bit and just clear my mind!

Does anyone know how the lake levels are? I really need to do me some fishin. I plan to be up there sometime Thursday.

Also, I got a brisket given to me, if someone brings a smoker, we could smoke it.

Thanks again guys, you are the greatest and you have no idea how much it was appreciated…

So, no job yet, still working on it. And unemployment just isn’t cutting it.

Looks like the only way I might be able to make it is if someone lets me pitch my tent on their spot.

Any takers? All my gear is in my camper, but I can bring some food.

Of course, this all depends on the weather, if it’s as hot as it is now, no way I’m sleeping in a tent!

Thanks!!!

Thanks guys. I know it will all work out.

I am going to do everything I can to get up there. Even tho I haven’t been working I sure could use a getaway with good friends!

I am working for a friend this next week and part of next to make a little extra money and will use that to get my campsite booked.

I can’t wait to see all you guys!

I so look forward to this every year. It is such a great time!

But this year I’m not totally sure if I will be able to make it as I recently lost my job. Hoping to find a new one soon and be able to make it!

I use the Creamy Italian, Hy-Vee brand. Tastes great on the grill and they are very juicy.

Are there any pictures of our party neighbors? That was funny. You know its a party when you have to change your pants in the morning. Hehe.

Ken said he took some. Hopefully he can find some time to post them soon.

Hey Marie, did the stove thing work out?

Well, just as I was pulling out of the campground the guy called and said the stove was still at his son’s house, in Mankato. He said he would get it and give me a call. Can’t wait to get it, but may not get to use it til next year.

I’m still missing my spoon. Hey Barb…did you end up with a yellow handled slotted spoon???

Here are a few pics for those of you that missed this wonderful gathering.

As always the company was great, the food was plentiful, and Lloyd’s stories were outrageous!!!

Great to see everyone again and meet a couple new people. Now that you have stopped by, come back next time and stay longer!

Mike, please make sure to plan the weather accordingly next year…

Thursday night’s drink of choice.

Lloyd took a few of us out to see his beehives.

Anybody know if there is a burn ban in the campground? Last place I was at in Greene county,you could only cook with gas,no charcoal.

BV County does have a burn ban but they said it’s fine to have a fire at the campground.

I made it up here yesterday afternoon. Last night I thought I was going to get blown away! But I made it through ok. Look forward to having some company tomorrow.

If you are thinking of bringing your boat, you may not want to. Lake is really low and hard to get into. I have not seen a boat on thewthe water yet.

Also might make sure you’ve got a heater. Supposed to get pretty chilly!
