GLWC Meet and Greet III "Bigger Wetter"

[Mitten Diver]

I was thinking of stopping by on Saturday. Will there be enough space left for an additional tent or did I need to make reservations months ago? (Nothing like procrastinating)

If there's not room to set yours up there should be plenty of room in the other tents. We are a very accomidating group.

1) I was toying with bringing soup but have decided to bring cider instead. I'll have the pot to heat it in and a insulated pump pot to keep it warm. (If I can't find cider it'll be hot chocolate.) I'm sure it will be appreciated by at least the wetsuit divers.

2) I'll also bring the 5 gallon cooler of water I signed up for a couple months ago.

3) Given we are going with fried turkey, I'll leave the tripod and huge kettle at home. Perhaps we can do chili or soup this Fall. (That will depend on whether M&G IV is on a non-UM home football game day! though.)

4) Flavored coffee creamer!
5) Trash bags
6) I'll check the list tomorrow before heading to the grocery store for what else. Not sure if I should go with more burgers to throw in the lot or snacks.
7) Bean bag horseshoe game. It's fun! and made by my grandparents.
8) Extra SCUBA gear that fits in the Escape - drysuit, tanks, BC, etc.
9) Lots of chairs and tables.
10) Matches - just in case.

I am looking forward to seeing everyone again. I have all of the GLWC merchandise for delivery as well (where is that sleigh and reindeer when I need them, LOL?). I plan to break it down to fit it into the car in open spaces. I will be loading my car except for my doubles (at the shop being filled) tomorrow.

I plan to be there from Friday afternoon to late Sunday afternoon depending on who shows up when.

I can't make it to Gilboa, so I got my hat & tee at home yesterday. Thanks to everyone who made this happen!

I'll be there around 5pm Friday and leaving Saturday afternoon/evening.

12 or 1 for the potluck dinner?

My brother is supposed to come up Friday evening and do 2-3 dives then has to go home, he's got a full face mask class Saturday in Newark.

W/ all the food do I need to bring the dutch ovens?

Since I will have a propane tank, I'll also bring a tree and lantern.

Okay, okay. I admit it. The truth is I'm afraid you'll wear me out by making me carry LOTS of firewood long, long hiking distances again. Oh, the pain and agony of it all.

i didnt see a lot of breakfast stuff, so we're going to drop any thouhts of a healthy desert and bring break n bakes (i htink mitten still has a griddle on his grill) eggs sausage etc.

 

[dmax tim]

I'm a milk and cereal person and will have a bag and a 1/2 gallon of milk.

Last time I stayed at gilboa I made chocalate chip pancakes and sausage for breakfast, but it was a pain.

I may be able to grab our big griddle and use on the frier.
