Matt, you out did yourself. The Crawfish Boil was so authentic it brought back fond memories of New Orleans, the band was just awesome. Karen your a jewel and thanks for river guiding. The rest of you were a blast.
Thanks to those who stayed to help pick litter you know who you are but, I have to say I could not believe how much "NEW" trash I picked up after most people had left - 3 bags. The outdoors is for us to enjoy and we as outdoor enthusiast should leave in area cleaner than we found it.
Again thanks to Matt, Karen, and the rest of you for great weekend.

Can't be. Only members who attended the trip can post a comment about the trip......any other ideas?

Yes I Think your both right.
Lee, although hiding behind the forum else he get punched in the gut, would definitely let you know whos doing the bashing. Especially if he uses a lot of big (no pun intended) words that he can be proud of. Could have been anyone really. This site isn't that secure. And Lee definitely knows his way around a computer. It obviously is someone that wishes they were there or didn't get a refund or maybe there mommy didn't hug them enough. I have a colorful picture that was posted by whomever it was and it makes feel good to know someone had to take that much time out of their schedule to make a scene. Everybody that attended obiviously had a good time. There was plenty of food and I think I passed out before the band even left. Find any other place you can do all that for $30. Get a life would ya Please.I plan on sticking around a little while longer. |

Well, Matt, that sucks! I know your trip was great-well, so I've heard. Last year was great!! And while I did not get a refund...I did not print any of that nastiness-I like Matt and am not malicious. Anyone who knows me knows I have the balls to sign my name. I don't hide from what I really think. A disagreement of sorts does not warrant badmouthing someone. Besides, I wish I was that computer savy-hell, I can't even clear enough memory off my computer to allow it to defrag!!! The way I figure it, if some people have no life and have to stalk the forums of the ODC to start busting on people-they are just like cackling females with no substance in their life. Like those addicted to the inquirer and such. What a sad sad life he must have.
