I think we should have a DU camping trip |
|
I've met enough of you folks here at DU and I can say one thing really really proudly - I think spending a weekend camping with DUers would be a real hoot!!!
Sitting around the campfire in the heart of nature with other progressive thinkers, how could it get any better than that?

10. Could you have this camping trip... |
|
in a vacant block next door to a five star hotel?
I need my twice a day shower, a flushing toilet, cable and room service.
I don't think I can get all that out in the woods.

29. watch out for quarter bounce |
|
years ago a colleague actually swallowed the quarter and ended up in the hospital for many days before they could get it out. A cautionary tale.

20. Renting cabins at Fossil Rim Wildlife Park |
|
It would be too expensive, but it sure would be nice! Meridian State Park is pretty nice - I was a park ranger there right after I graduated from Tarleton State.

Used to put 'em in the coals. Kinda like hard boiled, but harder to peel.

Also, if I show up unannounced, does that make me a stalker?

You have a fridge and ice and indoor plumbing. Just bring your sleeping bag and a shelter half.
