Sadly, there was no golf. Blame it on a couple named Bonnie and Charley. The players all had excuses that made sense, all except Trez, Mtn-man and I, who had a 10:30 tee time on Saturday.

Enter a buyer for one of Trez's nice homes. Closing was two weeks before Trez and Peaches could be ready. Trez drops.

Enter Ms. Bonnie, Mr. Charley and Mtn-man's boss who set up a trip for Mtn-man. departing shortly after the GGA meeting -- no time to prep for the trip before the meeting (in fact MM was late to the meeting -- understandably, due to his wife's healing legs). MM drops.

With no one to win money from, Trailerman drops, cancels his camping trip and enjoys perfect weather all weekend. Go figure!

Bummer!
$h.t happens. We gotta try again in the future, if anyone is interested.
At least I hope ya got a couple of 's for the beautiful weather. Spent most of my weekend in the boat on Lake Pontchartrain fishin' for 'specks, reds and flounder. Plenty of fish and shrimp to clean/peel, but no smiley's for me.

Trailerman,

The camping at HLC was great. Sorry you weren't there. We both had hoped to meet some other cachers camping in the area that weekend.
Hopefully we'll have more weather like this on the weekends. It would definitely extend the time to be able to camp comfortably over the next few months.

Sig. Other and I will be pulling the Geo-popper back to the Creek tomorrow for a few days. Let's hope the weather holds only a few cooling showers for us.

Trailerman,

I'm not sure if you're interested, but you can log a benchmark (which I *forgot* to log) while at HLC.
If you follow the steps down to the playground area, you'll notice a benchmark has been placed near the steps. Each time I was there I forgot to bring the camera or pen & paper to write down the information on it.
Have fun out there. You should be able to get lots of good pics of deer during your stay.
