So, Phila area mudcatters, since there's no live radio show that night, Max being on vacation, shall we have a little get-together for Kendall?

Live Oak and the Spirit of the Suwanee Music Park is about 90 miles west of us here in Jacksonville. If it makes the rest of you feel any better though, we have had night time temperatures in the mid to high 20's here all week, with more of the same for the next 5 days. Of course, when Kendall arrives, it will warm up to the mid 70's during the day and mid-50's pickin' weather in the evenings. Spirit of the Suwanee Music Park also has a web site (I don't have the URL handy) for those of you who want to take a peek at Kendall's digs... Paul G. |

Now BB on the other hand............ Kendall, I'd like to say that all these folks are adept storytellers in the best traditions of the music and the sad reality is that none of them could give a tinker's damn about whether you are here or not. They have no morals and the spirit of goodwill and caring which you would expect is sadly lacking. It gives me pride to say that I couldn't give less of a turkey whether or not you go to the swamps or the moon, and if you decide to go to either, take Garg with you and throw his ass into either the middle of a gator's mouth or a convenient crater, depending on where you are. If you DO get a chance to go on-line from wherever, you might check in here just to let us know you're okay. Nobody really cares, but the bandwidth may as well be used. If we don't here from you regularly, the Insanevac chopper will be sent out to retrieve your sorry ass and take you to the Neil Young Center for the Terminally Screwed where you belong anyway. In the meantime, I will continue singing bad harmony to "Phoebe Snow." Be safe, be careful, be back........ Spaw |

28 Dec 99 - 04:22 PM (#154917) Subject: RE: BS: I'm outta here From: paddymac Truth be known, Kendall has picked the ideal time of year for camping in the north Florida woods. Given a good freeze before he arrives, there'll be very few skeeters, chiggers, no-see-ums, yellow flies, deer flies or ticks. Do keep an eye out for fire ants, however. Though even they tend to be a bit lethargic this time of year. Same is true for snakes. Cleigh's kin, 'coons and skunks tend to be very accustomed to people in camps and will commonly walk right up to you after dark looking for a handout. Just don't make any sudden moves, especially if there're skunks about. If you should happen to have a less than fulfilling encounter with a skunk, the only two remedies I know of that usually work well at getting rid of the stink are tomato juice and ordinary 3% hydrogen peroxide. The fire ants can be far more serious, even fatal, if you happen to be one of those who are acutely allergic to them. The best way to deal with them around your campsite is to pour hot tap water on the mound. Mix in a few drops of dish soap for good measure. Do not use boiling water as that will kill plant roots and the like. Hot tap water (110-120 degrees F) will do in the ants without killing plant roots. And, please, don't be spraying pesticides around the place. It tends to wind up in the water. Don't worry about gators. They're still licking their wounds in the Swamp. (they lost the big intra-state grudge match a month ago):) Rereading the above, I guess it could be a bit of a downer, but it's not meant that way at all. The park folks normally do a very good job of minimizing such things. So come planning to relax and enjoy our part of the world. I'll catch up w/ harpy and moonchild and we'll come invade your campsite sometime. |

Several years ago I visited my parents at their camp in Denmark Maine (Sebago Lake area for you out-of-staters) one July 4rth weekend with my youngest son, Trevor. We had just arrived from Texas and stopped in at the corner store for bread, milk and an out-of-state fishing license. The game warden had a small table set-up just outside of Jim-Bobs Variety Store where he was selling Kiwanis Club raffle tickets. Trevor and I stopped by the table, bought a ticket or two, and chatted with the well kept old timer for a few minutes. When I remarked on the beauty of the day, a summer day so lovely - hot, dry pine scented breeze, clear blue sky - a summer day as only I've seen in Maine, one which we never see in Texas. I said, "Isn't it a beautiful day?" The game warden answered me in his dry dead pan, Maine accented way. He said, "Ahyup! We got two seasons up hee-uh; wintah and the fooorth of July!" |

30 Dec 99 - 02:07 PM (#155725) Subject: RE: BS: I'm outta here From: katlaughing Perish the thought! I was telling me dad that we hadn't had any snow to speak of this year and was worried about a drought in the spring. He reminded me then, of the blizzard of 1948/49(?)can't remember which it was. Anyway, he said it was warm and dry all winter until just after the first of January, then the snow came. It blew and drifted and fell through, with no let up, to March something. No one went anywhere, my brother remembers tunnels to the doors of houses and, when they could get to them, huge long trainloads of thousands of dead cattle, frozen stiff, caught out where no cowboy could get to them. Apparently someone is thinking along the same lines as my dad. When I went looking for info I found a recent article on what happened in South Dakota then, at Deadwood Magazine. It was weird, just as now, blizzard one day, 55 degrees the next, then unrelenting blizzard. In a timeline for wyoming, 1949 has one entry: Severe blizzard closed down whole state. So...maybe your trip is double timely, Kendall! Leave it to a Yankee to be canny about such things.**BG** |
