I'm thinking Nov might be a good time to hike back to Harriman. I'd like to try a different area unless you all love Tom Jones then we can hike there.

So what say you all?

Tom Jones was a resonably short stagger/hike and it is a pretty spot.

Next time I am bringing a flame-proof cover for my sleeping bag.

I'd think about it, but last time everyone bailed because of a little weather. I'm not sure I want to drive all that way for a bailfest.

A little weather??

If that was last April I was there and the rain set in over night with torrential rains forecast for the next day.

We ran for our livers!

I hope your livers survived. But I'm pretty sure a little bit of water never killed anyone . . . unless you count that green-faced witch that tried to burn up the brainless Scarecrow.

Well, that's why we all bailed out.

Anyway, as some of us were leaving a family of Koreans moved in and made life for Phantom Soul and BackSlacker, etc. "uncomfortable".

They started cooking smelly stuff and singing Korean songs.....too funny.
