Northeast Monkeyfest v4.0: 21-23 July 2006
- Thread starter johnbryanpeters
- Start date
I calculated the bill in my head for about 10 pizzas and 30 beers to within a dollar (keep in mind I did that after driking four beers). That may have been my greatest life accomplishment.McGRP01 said:Wow...I think all of us got lit up that night!! Good times!!
have you been driking again?
No need to worry it will be rather inexpensive for surePolandspring88 said:
Anyone plan on staying at the campground want a lean-to site? I'm going to cancel my reservation tomorrow (7/14) if no one would like it.berkshire_rider said:Do you need a site? I reserved a lean-to site at Burke Mountain for Doug and myself before the lodge became an option. I think they are ~ $15 a night. I was going to cancel it, but I can have the name changed on the reservation to yours if you like.
That was cool. I was pretty lit up too!I Are Baboon said:

Ok....cost breakdown. It's looking like $20 per person per night if you stay inside the lodge and $10 per person per night if you stay outside the lodge. If there turns out to be more people who are able to come then I will deduct the extra $ from the food bill (which I will have figured out by Wednesday of next week). Make sense? You can bring me cash/check next weekend, end me a check or even paypal me if that's easier.
I am SO psyched! We're going to have an AWESOME time!!!

Hey Brungeman it looks like I should be able to get a ride from roch, but thank you for the offer of a ride. Treesaw I hope you make some of your famous cookies for the event.
So, it's just me coming up from the DC area again this year (AFAIK). I'll be driving 95 to NYC, picking up 684 to CT, where I get 84 to 91 and then straight up to NEK. Anyone along that route want a ride? It would be great to split gas with someone.
ETD, DC: 0530-0600 hrs
ETA, NEK: 1500-1600 hrs

ETD, DC: 0530-0600 hrs
ETA, NEK: 1500-1600 hrs
uch: So, quick question: anyone have an address or directions to get to the lodge? I don't remember seeing any before and I am leaving on Wed for Lake George and won't be able to check the computer.
Go north on the main road through town until you see the town baseball field on the left, maybe a mile or two. The lodge is across the street.JRogers said:

I started preparing for Monkeyfest this past weekend in Burlington, VT. Some of the places on Church street had Trout River on tap.
Hah - so do you tell me you're going to be in BTV? Noooo...berkshire_rider said:I started preparing for Monkeyfest this past weekend in Burlington, VT. Some of the places on Church street had Trout River on tap.
: Just for the weekend. My girlfriend and I both went to college near Burlington, and haven't been up for a visit since graduation. Scary how fast 2 days goes by on the weekend.......
Right back at youbrungeman said:
Gotcha thanks for the directions, I will sit down and look at all the different roots... I love VT. My aunt and uncle just sold their "weekend home" last fall. it was down in West Dover (I think) it was inbetween Haystack and Mt. Snow, up on the hill across from both of them... I was a monster of a house that Bek and I used as our launching pad for excursions on our honeymoon. We drove the wheels off of my car that week! it was a blast, and I don't care which route I take, I know it will be pretty!TreeSaw said:Right back at you
Oh your other E-mail just got here! I will see what I can do...

Actually, I'm 25 minutes away Cool, thanks for the offer, but I'm going with a bunch of non-riding friends who probably wouldn't be too thrilled with me ditching out on them.McGRP01 said:Let me know if you want to ride on Wed., or just grab a beer somewhere. I live 5 mins. from Lake George.

Echo/Gumbafish/Tweek/Crashby: Friday early afternoon I think. We'll be going past the Treesaw/Sq-earl estate, maybe we can caravan from there.
I should be leaving Endicott early Friday, and I have no idea how long a drive from there it is, but I am guestimating sometime mid afternoon?
