Hoedown Headcount

Post by Duck Me Runnin » May 19th, 2006, 4:54 am

The third annual Hoedown is only a month away.

I'd like to at least have a vague idea of how many folks intend to show. I need to know how many ducks I have to beg from my duck huntin' buds. Image I've seen many of you folks eat. I'm not worried about havin' too many kabobs, but a shortage may cause a riot. Image

It would also help us know that we have adequate grill space, fryers, etc.

If you know what kinda vittles you plan to bring, post that too. It may change someone's mind that was planning on bringing the same exact thing.

Warmouth has volunteered to bring several bags of pretzel rods. All pre-broken, for your convenience. Image

Munchkin and I are vaguely planning on it. Image Haven't really figgered out a menu yet...I know I gots some deer brats and frimp in the freezer. Ain't really thought about how to cook up the frimps yet, but was considering that southwest style. Although these are some slab shrimps, so not sure, may just butterfly and deep fry. Probably a side dish of macraoni salad. The boy and I leave for Florida next week, I'll get a little more serious about the hoedown after Florida and the Testy Fest.

Swampfox already has the pavillion reserved, and with a little luck, we'll get to run off some squatters again this year. Image

Dave - You break any more of LA's chit and you better bring one for your own protection whether they're allowed or not. Image

It's a conservation area. Squirrel will be in season. Image

Dave,

It's just like most C.A.'s. Hunting under statewide regulations, blah, blah, blah.....

There's no range, unless you wanna drive about 15 min. There's plenty of timber, so you could go snipe limb chickens if ya want to. Image

I am tenative. What is the exact date again ? I gave away my smoker. I might bring food. Not sure. I may just skid into the park. Open the cooler drink a beer, set up the tent, drink a beer, think about cooking something, drink more beer, make fun of DMR's goofy shorts and knock knees, drink more beer. Remind rich how much he looks like Jerry Carcia and he can complain how he doesn't get the puzzie Jerry did. Drink another beer, Corral Gloria back around the fire so she won't make any more fool out of ourselves, drink another beer.... more of the same... drink another beer. Image

Good deal. There's a pond at this joint too right?



It's a dam shame frogs will be still 4-5 days out of season. Image

Is it June 24th?

I have a buddy getting hitched at 4 o'clock in the afternoon, then reception to follow. So I won't be attending, if it's the 24th.

TT,

Sounds like you're placin' an order for the classic combo platter. Image

2B,

You keep your low-to-the-ground eyes off of my shorts, and my knees. Image I haven't got to out-argue Gloria for some time. Tell her to git to practicin'. Image

Counts told me he'd do shirts for the deal, but only if I got pre-orders. It seems that he got burned last time, and it would be MY dime at risk this year.

What sayeth the masses ? Image
