Yellow River St. Forest/ Oct. 22-24

“lets just bump this to the top for fun... new website look and all...

LOL”

“Are there specific places to camp at night or will we just stay along the trail somewhere? I hope there are restrooms.”

“There are specific camping areas.

I don't recall any official restrooms near the sites.”

“ahhh, me thinks the little 'shroomcita is a troll. Tell us more and give me an e-mail, mushroomgirl. I am sending e-mails on the trips to REAL addresses and not using the "send to all" feature on the Trips page. There are people going on this trip who are not signed up on the Trips page, so that's the easiest way to handle.”

“you all suck :P”

“Yeah, T Mac is positive! LOL! (that has a bad ring in medical circles, eh?)

Also going are Lorax and gf...

I think elementary1 is going again (people from last trip know who that is)...

possibly a Twins fan from 2 hours away IF the Twins are not in World Series...

possibly MinisterCreek. Yes, meet MinisterCreek!”

“meet MinisterCreek

right there, that is reason enough NOT to go liz...”

“lol... free you suck too. :-P

You and CMB coming? Hey, are YOU mushroomcita??”

“I have my Haloween name up without an address. Send me the trip info @

brian.a.beanblossom@bakernet.com

Thanks. I will try to get out of work a little early to get out of the city.”

“mushroom who? nope. and I havent been smokin em either”

“hehe beanblossom :D hey bloody knees, we should go to beanblossom soon now that the bugs won't be so bad :D”

“I met OOBrett. Nice guy in person!”

“I am sorry. I did not know this is a private trip.”

“Sure thing nicole. I tried to steal the sign once.”

“My next weekend off is the 30th of october. Maybe we could plan an overnighter. Hell, I am going to insist on one. :D Its about time I get out, hernia or no.”

“Not a private trip. Everyone welcome. E-mail me your addy and contact info. I do want name, address, phone numbers and emergency contact number for trip. I get this from everyone. And you are most welcome.”

“I just tried e-mailing you lizs and it bounced back to me. I used this address

lisapbia@REMOVETHISyahoo.com”

“Again, I am sorry. I did not understand the procedure. I only give that informations to my closest friends. I am Panamanian and thought this would be a fun thing to do while on fall break. I will look for something else. Sorry if I upset you. I did not know the rules.”

“This took me a minute, but Spirit Coyote = Free = Ms. CMB = Nicole, right? :)”

“You got it, Mac”

“Good thought Bloody Knee. How are we supposed to email you Liz?. The one in your profile is a hoax and the other 2 you gave me just bounce back. Please email me so I can reply with some questions.”

“SC was my first name here on TT :)”

“Oh, then I should confuse everyone by using my lurker login so I have a longer "member since" time that this name claims. :)”

“If you e-mail me at the below address, I will send you my info Lizs

brian.a.beanblossom@bakernet.com”

“Disclaimer: *I'm not a #&%!$ or beeyotch, I just play one on TT. Mushroomcita, ya wanna come on the trip? You get me your information. That's pretty much standard around here. Or you can whine about how sad you are and NOT do it which stinks like a troll. Your choice. But you're a troll, so who cares?

For the rest of you REAL people :-)
So you guys have problems sending me info? Here is the address to use. Sheesh, use your heads. Not THOSE heads! LOL!

Where it says REMOVETHIS... well, REMOVE THAT PART. DOH! People sometimes write down their e-mails addresses like that to prevent them from being sucked up by whatever address-sucking software spammers use.

So the e-mail would be:
lisapbia at yahoo.com

Just to make it really clear, then take out the spaced and replace the AT with @

That should get me e-mails. :-)”

“OK, sorry. I am stupid. I went to public school.

BTW, you will have mail in 30 seconds.”

“WoundedKnee, no biggie. I remember the first time I saw someone post an e-mail like that, I thought WTF??!? It's just trying to protect addresses from spammers. If spammers grabbed that address, the cool thing is it would bounce right back to them. moooohahahaha! :-)”

“hey lizs. have i met you??
when you comin south again?!”

“and don't forget to include your PORN trail names in that contact info! . . . lol!

Also, for you newbies to YRSF make sure you have your cameras ready to catch those early morning butt shots . . . . that is, if your in the right place at the right time . . . :)

Seriously, YRSF has the best backcountry campsites I've seen for group trips like this. I'm sure everyone will enjoy the trip! If I didn't have other plans ALREADY I'd be there. :)”

“waaaaaaaaaaaaaah no gforce! :-(

Little potato girl, I am heading to TC4. That's kinda south. :-) Are you gonna be there, huh huh?”

“lizzys,
i will be at blk mtn instead of TC4. maybe i will see you in november?”

“lizs the trip sound like fun. thx for the invite, but going to K.C. to see a game with the boy. Maybe next time”

“NowSLlimmer, so you won't be around?

It would be fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuun! :-)”

“Nowslammer can't even handle the cold of a Wisconsin SUMMER! j/k”

“How about it Snakey? What are odds on you slinking in? ;-)”

“Snake Eyes - I will admit that Wisconsin summers can be colder than Iowa winters. If this works, the picture shows my campsite in Iowa last December.

Rock Creek SP, Iowa, December 2003

If it does not work, you can view the picture in album nowslimmer in Matt's new My Pictures.”

“gforce - Please please please get some more butt shots of lizsbaby! You know how she likes to be teased about them! ;-)”

“STOVEY! phhhhhhhhhht! If it's butt shots ya want, you better gitchur own butt here to take them!”

“Update: Last night I was up laaaaaaate using the Mapcard online mapping software to do a new map.

Think I have it ready to go shortly....”

“lizs sucks :P :D


Really wish I could go. Mike says the yellow river forest sucks though:S”

“Mike always says that. (how do I make a smiley that's rolling its eyes?? LOL) I think part of it might have been his feelings toward his cohort the last time around. :-)”

“maybe he doesnt want to go because Tango isnt going LOL”

“LOL, shoot, I missed that comeback. LOL! You are too funny, girl.

OK, I sent out e-mails to bunches o' people. T-Mac, yours bounced. It had a 1 MB attachment map... maybe your box was full? Let me know when I can resend, or if I need to resend to somewhere else.

Will have another nice e-mail going out Sunday with three -- COUNT'EM *THREE* -- map attachments. A better map of the trails, a map of area highways and a map specifically of the turnoff from Highway 76 to the backpacker's parking lot.

Currently, I think we're up to nine: The Lorax and gf, T-Mac, Wounded Knee, Ruby, ChinMusic (?), Elementary1, TwinsFan and me.”

“oops, I mean MONDAY... another e-mail Monday”

“lizs: use timcdowell@yahoo.com for large attachments. I don't use that account very often, and it has a huge amount of storage.”

“Lizs - I can't think of any reason not to go...and I've been trying real hard. How bout copying me on that map info you're sending out.

Nowslimmer - you must have had to set the alarm in your motel room quite early in order to get back to your campsite before the real campers woke up.”

“Blew out my old Thermarest this past weekend. I have to run to REI and see what they've got for me and one for Audrey. I hope the nice weather we had this weekend makes a similar appearance for YR”

“C'mon, the Lorax, I wanna see you CURPLOP outta that Hennessy again! (is that how you spell that? Where's a Batman show when you need one????!!?)”

“Gee..i found out I have that weekend off....”

“SC, c'mon. Bring Mike... or ditch'em!! mooooohahahaha...

Some of your "neighbors" are coming. Don't know what time you all get off work, but meebee you all could share rides?

Are you getting the e-mails I'm sending out on it? (Just sent one out) I think I have the hiking club address on the list. Guess I could double check it.

Oh yea, and kidnap CrashBoomBang, if he lives in your vicinity. LOL!”
