WOOHOO It's the return of MBC & IAB to monkeyfest!!! There is definitely room too!!! I believe we're now up to 14 monkeys! Hopefully we can get a couple more and the cost will come down for sure! Right now it's looking like $75 per person.
I think we may need studded tires for this MF........at least according to Accuweather.com.

So...when is this post getting updated? Just askin'.It's time!!!! Vote for the weekend and post up if you're planning on attending. I'll book the lodge when we have enough folks interested. Again, if you say you're coming your in for the $$$ if something comes up and you can't make it. I am hoping to keep the cost to $65 or less.
Once we have picked a weekend, I will edit this post with the dates and we'll start a "confirmed" list!
FYI, another change of plans: MBC and I will take a couple of bunks instead of sleeping in the loft. We'll stay in the "no snoring" room.WOOHOO It's the return of MBC & IAB to monkeyfest!!!

I don't steal it. YOu just like me better so you give me beer willinglySorry Randee, I was a little defensive there, Phil was threatening to steal my beer.
I can't wait to see you guys, it's been too long.
I'm thinking the loft is going to be the better option, right above the wood stove.FYI, another change of plans: MBC and I will take a couple of bunks instead of sleeping in the loft. We'll stay in the "no snoring" room.
Well IAB you know I'll be on that ride with you!!! I'm sure the others will be glad to hear that! I'll have to dig out a special pint glass for ya!
The wood stove is part of the reason we're opting for bunks. I sleep better in cold rather than heat.I'm thinking the loft is going to be the better option, right above the wood stove.
No snoring room...thats funnyFYI, another change of plans: MBC and I will take a couple of bunks instead of sleeping in the loft. We'll stay in the "no snoring" room.
Looks like I'm out regardless. Have fun to those who go......KT + fall = slippery fun.
I'll check on it for sure!Anyone bringing fire wood????
Or does that get supplied with the lodge as the weather gets colder?
*diabolical laughter*I blame Joe for the weather......
Isn't the basement loaded with firewood? (where we keep the bikes)I'll check on it for sure!
How nice, Orange and yellow leaves covered in a blanket of white......That weekend will be during peak foliage season.
I'm digging the idea of foraging, Trout River pizza is calling me...Is the Friday dinner plan to forage and/or pot luck it? I can bring something.

We saw Mr. River at a beer festival in CT a few weeks ago. We asked if Pat (aka TroutMonkey) was still there and he said YES! HOORAY!I'm digging the idea of foraging, Trout River pizza is calling me...
I'll see if I can talk to a few folks from our house to see if they are interested in hitting up TR.I'm digging the idea of foraging, Trout River pizza is calling me...

We're questionable too....we could be there at 4pm or 9pm, just depends on when I can get out of work and whether we ride Pine Hills on the way.MBChickie and I are not sure what time we're arriving Friday. Could be noonish, could be 9:00ish. So, we may or may not be in for Trout River pizza.
