Month: February 2012

NEWSFLASH: From sources in the field, it has been reported that Chip acquired a GPS unit it appears, no need to for me lend him mine. At least I won’t get blamed for his next walkabout!

WANTED: Hipboots and waders, for who ever is going to chase Chip to Old Forge!

Ok Chip, a few things:

Good News: I got a new GPS, so if you don’t acquire one before the next venture, you can use my old one.

Bad News: You’ll need to learn how to use it.

Good News: It has LOTS of way-points in it.

Bad News: It will get you within a half-mile of being really, really, lost.

Good News: I placed in it a new way-point last week, just for YOU; the “Fastrac” gas station in Old Forge. (They have hotdogs and batteries there if needed)

Bad News: You’ll run out of batteries way before you get there, and most likely you’ll be wet from crossing more than one South Branch on the way.

Good News: If it’s still the weekend, you can call camp, and we’ll think about sending Spike to get you. (You’ll have to pay for gas, and food for Spike)

Bad News: If it’s Monday, (it’ll prolly be later in the week by the time you get there, if at all) you may need to get a temporary job in Old Forge.

Really-really bad news: If you loose it (the GPS), you might just as well take the “ride” off T-Lake Falls!

Don’t get too excited!

Good News: You won’t have to pay the next weekends camp dues!
