Wisconsin area events, parking lot parties and social gatherings

For me, it depends on where I'm going, and for how long. If I'm going to be somewhere a few days, I just throw everything in the truck and unload most of it at the campsite.

We used to go on 2 week trips and multiple campsites, and brought everything we could think of. Everything was in totes and organized, so we could set up and take down pretty efficiently.

Most of the camping I do now is just a night or 2. And, I'm nervous to leave things unattended all day while I explore. So, I tend to bring less stuff on those trips. I have also condensed my camping gear and eliminated some of the things I never really use.

It is nice to be comfortable while camping!

 

Good ! The reason I bought the Lifetime Heavy duty cooler (Walmart yeti knock-off) was to bring ice spheres
for my whiskey that I make before a trip.

I always seem to pack my bar set or at least a shaker!


Lol

and it’s not camping without percolator coffee on the Coleman stove.


Steak ‘em Tortillas at the campground?Just break out the Coleman Griddle


I can basically star in a Coleman outdoors commercial.

Yeah... I bought that. Lol

Coleman grill, griddle, tent, bags, sleeping bags, lanterns, kitchen gear, etc!

 

Sounds like I need to invite chef @BookieBob on all future trips to handle camp meals lol

 

I passed my technician exam! My callsign should be assigned by mid week I am told.



Edit: I realized I probably shouldn't post the whole certificate so I cropped the top part only.

 

Better start thinking of ideas for your vanity callsign!

 

Do I have to request a vanity before my assigned one?

 

Nope. You have to get one first, then you can request a vanity one

 

Congratulations!

 

Excellent, good to know. I'll think of something eventually!

 

Update I didnt fall off the fence I was told I couldnt go anywhere, have fun

 

It's been many decades since I let somebody tell me anything like that!

 

this wasnt a sombody its a something

 

Asked the wife if she wanted to go and I showed her some video and she wants to, but asked what day and she has to work, I do to but I wasnt going to go, I stayed home today and found out I really cant go

 

always a bummer. Maybe a future outing

 

Sorry to hear! Hopefully another time.

 

I know.....

I asked my wife if she wanted to go for a 15 hour car ride. I told her it’s only 8 hours on the highway(round trip), 3-4 on the trail and a hour or 2 at Potosi Brewery watching me sample 20 beers.

she declined!

She never drinks because of migraines so I sort of want her to go to the brewery 4hours away. 2 hours of sampling every beer they have to offer and a nap as my wife drives us back home. Win, win!
Nope, she’s still not going. Oh well guess I’ll bring my growlers with and hope they will fill them.

 

" I was thinking of starting from the Illinois border maybe sometime this summer. There is a brewery I have heard of in nearby-ish Deborah IA. that might be a good place to stop for lunch. It’s called Toppling Goliath."

You mentioned about starting at the IL border sometime, I should be all good then

 

I am looking at this one also right now, I got the idea from you, Here you guys go spending my money again

 

Yeah .
I might wanna go for that also.

Another brewery?????
I’m always ready for a mystery beer!
