Jim, did you guys set the tents up in the parking lot? I heard the camping area was grassy.

As Don says, there is a fringe of grass in that area where most of the tents are.  My son and I pitched our tent in the next row down (by the water so it gets REALLY cold - thanks Dylan) where there's a little more grass.

My tent is the little green blur at 10 o'clock from Don's (also green) tent.

There he is....was wondering when you would show up Rob....

Ok, the shirt order goes in tomorrow.

[VTer]

Good, another 2Xer! I was beginning to feel like I wouldn't fit in with this group.  

[sticksnstones]

Looks like a good time, count me in for a large T.

[VTer]

This is a pic of my campsite at Denton hill. I'll be sporting most of it Ohio. Think there's room?

Would the wife and I both be welcome? She shoots a wheelie but I'd be in all primitive gear.
Someone email me a map. I can't get my Adobe reader to work at all, even downloded it again. I can see the hunting area on google earth but cant make out the camp grounds for sure.

[sticksnstones]

Geez VTer, I'd think you should get some Hilton points for sleeping in digs like that!

[buckeye_hunter]

Vt'er,

We will make room for that set up!

[buckeye_hunter]

Osage,
You are both more than welcome. We have nothing against wheels. Just because most of us will be trad, doesn't exclude those that use compounds. Who knows? Maybe one day she will shoot trad and even if she doesn't... no one will hassle her. We had a guy the first year that was shooting an old compound and now he shoots selfbows!

What map do you need? An aerial or the AEP rec map?


See you there,

[buckeye_hunter]

Here is the final tally for shirts. Let me know if there is a correction. I will put in the order tomorrow. I held it off for today.

Myself - XL
Dylan - L
Jim(Kahn) - XL
Jim(BG Hunter) - XL
Greg(VT'er) - 2XL
Rob(Olkdskool) - 2XL
Thom(Sticksnstrings) - L
Matt(Magnus) - XL & L
Matt George (Celticknot) - M
Tony P -  XL
Aaron (ohiobowhunt)- XL?

[VTer]

You forgot Robert's(oldskool) 2XL. Gotta look out for my fellow 2X'rs.

If you go to campsite A instead there is a huge open grassy area that you could probably set up 40 tents. It's not as pretty as what you show but is quite accomadating for a large group and would give you plenty room to set up 3d.
Dont they drop off the "slab wood" anymore or is that just in summer?

VTer are you going to bring Ken and Ed with you?

[VTer]

Hey Scott, met you at Vern & Rebecca's the year I went. I'm headed out myself. Ken & Ed have been going to Ontario the last few years, g.g.g.gun hunting. I'm sure they would get a kick out of this hunt though.

[buckeye_hunter]

There is lots more room if we spread out a bit, but we all tend to gravitate to one spot. Lots of room for tents- if we spread out some.

They don't drop slabwood anymore.

Also, I just found out that those ponds supposedly have some good crappie/bass fishing if you bring a pole. You might need a canoe or raft though.

I don't plan on bringing all the kitchen stuff. Just the basics. I figure soups and sandwiches mostly.

[Osagetree]

Buckeye, thanks,,, just a map that shows me where to get to the campground.

[ohiobowhunt]

Charlie you guessed correctly, I'll take an XL.

[buckeye_hunter]

Shirt order went in today.

Osage,
I am trying to figure out what map to send that would be easiest.....

[sticksnstones]

I sent a screenshot of the page with the campground on it last night. Osagetree, is that good enough to get you on track?
