It looks like the weather forecast for Saturday might be improving in the afternoon. So I'm hoping to launch at some point on Saturday. Not sure when yet. I'm playing it by ear with the weather. If it looks good, VJER looks like he can trailer the Mudda down and I'll take the Blockade Runner out on her maiden voyage.
We'll try to get a haul in before dark, then haul and hack all day Sunday and Monday. If anyone can make it, just let me know. I know there's a tourney goin' on on Sunday, but if you ain't fishin' it, we sure could use some help. There's a pic below of what we're looking at getting rid of. We need the entire area cleared and clean by Feb. 1st and this time of year, who knows if we'll have good weather on another weekend.
We need folks for all jobs. Idealy on site at the Ghost Camp, we'd have two chainsaw men and one helper hauling things to the trash pile. Then we'll have one guy (probably me) running the Mudda back and forth with 2 helpers in the Blockade Runner to unload into trucks and run down to the bonfire site. The Mudda will be completely stripped down to use as a hauler. We'll get her full for each load. As soon as the trucks are loaded, I'll head back for another load and so on. VJER will be bringing a chainsaw, but we could always use a backup if you have one.
At this point, it's just me and VJER for the weekend. That means there's one bed available, one mattress for the floor, and we have 2 blow up mattresses. If you only want to come out just for a day, no problem. I'm going to look and see what I can do for food, but I'll for sure have a boil going on Monday and we'll have something for the grill on both nights, maybe some jambalaya too. Just have to figure how many of y'all to cook for.
Even if you just have a few hours to volunteer, we could use the help. Since Saturday is so iffy, it's best to plan to be there Sunday and Monday unless Saturday is your only chance. Just remember out launch time will depend on the weather. The weather for Sunday and Monday will be excellent.
After the Ghost Camp is done and gone, we won't have to worry about deadlines anymore. That means more fun and fishin' time as we work. As of today, 18 days and counting until the deadline. Post up if you can make it. Things are really moving. I can't wait for the party.
