OK, story for me goes like this. My son and I will be there on Saturday, will be there around 8. Only bad thing is that I wont be able to stay all day. Yesterday I had a large cyst removed form my back and I'm way down on energy. Gonna need to take it easy, especially if it's hot/humid. I may come back later in the day though, we'll have to see. So looking forward to seeing everyone and hanging out for a while!

OK but you have to drink a warm beer and take too huge tokes off one of Brets big stoggies after the hot dogs and before the bunny hop. The one who doesn't puke wins
