I am not lost but very confused, particularly just about everything now.

Got it on my calendar again for this year. Hoping for better weather than last year. Will be riding up from Dallas area. Looking forward to it.

Yep. And then the power goes out.

lol

The food was most excellent, though.

Is this on now with Dusty's situation?

It is on

good to hear it Doug and remove any doubt

The Okie has never been my rally , somehow I simply ended up being the mouthpiece . Since Michael D let go of the reins , it has been Doug's rally , whether or not I show up won't make any difference .

Sounds like this will be a great event. Most likely some of you are new to camping.
Maybe you can get some tips on equipment here. Some is expensive, some is not.
Promise you, hiking, and camping is habit forming. And good for ya too!

There are trails that run for 40 miles that start about 50' from where we gather for the Okie . The Ouchita mountains present a challenge for even very experienced hikers , we have fed and watered more than one hiker who came stumbling into the park on the verge of collapse .

Well then just sit around the campfire drinking Jack and smoking weed.
Like everything else, ya gotta know your limits, and practice.
I'd take hiking over sitting on my ass throwing bullshit every time.
You can do whatever you like.

I never have time to sit much at a rally , normally I walk 20 miles answering questions and treating an injury when someone who has been drinking whiskey falls over a fire ring

You didn't need to criticize my post. That is no different than someone saying, don't ride motorcycles because you could get into an accident.
Hiking, camping is something any family or group of friends can enjoy. Whether you go one mile, or twenty-five.
And if you just hang out at the event you'll likely need a tent, cooking stuff, headlamps, etc.
Sorry to upset ya

Yogi , seriously , where was the criticism? You mentioned what a wonderful activity hiking is , I provided information indicating there are miles of trails that start in Talimena state park . The simple fact is , some of them are very rough and difficult , I kinda thought that was supporting your statement about hiking .

Yogi, you can get your medical card here and partake the flower. There is a ban on smoking in the pavilion but the park manger usually give us stogie puffers a break. I don't know if I'd push an issue where discretion is a charm.

Sounds like you're an expert on that stuff. Don't forget your rolling papers and munchies.

Gary Scott · « **Reply #647 on:** July 30, 2019, 07:02:03 PM »

I remember a conversation with the camp host he said some of the trails go almost to Fort Smith.

Texas Turnip · « **Reply #648 on:** July 30, 2019, 08:00:43 PM »

I'm sitting here drinking a fruit jar of fermented turnip juice with a big chunk of limburger cheese and I got to wondering this. The Sultan of Cedar Vale has a smooth tone to it, but the Sultan of Talihena doesn't hit it.
Conclusion> There can only be one Sultan.

I am afraid I don't have the family medical card. But you're more or less right on the rest. But I'll only be caring stogies and scotch with me, provided I can get a spot for my travel trailer.

........and if I'm riding, I'll pass on a beer.

Definitely coming.

Possibly bringing some stragglers . The guy who bought my Guzzis might come down for his first time.

Texas Turnip · « **Reply #657 on:** August 21, 2019, 03:26:29 PM »

I'll be there IF they drop my nephews bail so I have enough left over. OTOH He can stay in jail with his perps and I'll be with my friends in Okieland.
