    I'm currently self employed so I can make whatever days happen, pending my actual boss (wife) doesn't tell me otherwise.

    I should be able to show up Friday morning for wheeling. Not sure if I'll throw the tent on the back or what. I'll be heading out either Saturday night or Sunday morning. Got a plane ticket for the 30th and not willing to stretch it out to the end in case I have to limp it home.

    literally drowning.

    I believe I saw on the local news the other day we have gotten over 15" where I live in January/February alone.

    and it's raining today.

    Good news/bad news.

    I’m in the process of selling my house, buying a new house, and building a shop at the new place.

    good news is my house is officially under contract.

    Bad news is the closing is set for the Friday of this trip, and I’ll only have 7 days to vacate after closing.

    So, if all goes well, I won’t be making it. I’m not one to bail on wheeling trips, but I like making a big pile of money more than wheeling so... sorry not sorry. :)

    well, if this rain doesn't let up over the next month Chocco may be "un-wheelable" but we'll see.
