    And this will be the first time I've ever been on a plane. Do they let bears through security?

    They may ask you to remove your slippers from your paws, other than that you should be fine.

    This was my plan, but whatever Swags has in mind? I'm down!

    I would like to at least stay the night Sat (drive up early Sat) and BS with Dennis. I hope that Fireview still needs a couple splits that night :thumbs:

    Hmmmm, this sounds extremely exciting:saw: :tree::axe::stacke::grizz::campfire::MM::fire:! If you decide to stay stateside perhaps you want to car pool? Or maybe pick me up from the airport in MI?

    Canada is way sketchy anyway, they got a lot of moose and they are mean, and frankly full of themselves... (the moose I mean, not Canadians!)

    Or is anyone coming from or by central Virginia? i95ish

    Looks like about 13 hours from here with potty stops..

    Absolutely! The more I think about it, I'm not sure if I want to try bringing any of my saws through customs, so I may stay stateside. Though I think there may be a few from C VA coming - Eric VW ?

    Would love to go to MI, just don't think it's in my cards, unless someone here or the fam wins it big and "lends" me some extra cheddar.... And PS- my hand is not out, but I would graciously accept the opportunity to meet up with the middle-of-the-country portion of FHC:thumbs::D

    I may not actually be at 30mpg. but I will say it costs maybe 50 bucksish to drive to buffalo. at todays prices..

    BUT, with my work schedule and location, I literally spend $15 every three weeks for gasoline. its amazing! (and of course I complain to my canyonero friends that I only get 3 weeks...)

    Told my wife about the gtg last night and she wasn't sure she wanted to go but told me have fun if you are able to make it.

    I saw this seemed like it was going to be a three day event. Are there campgrounds close by?
