Re: Base Camp.......The team that isn't

Thank you, TLD.
Please put on your boots and be prepared to go the camp on Saturday, please biggrin

Good Morning Base Campers!
Please meet our
TWO
New Base Campers in addition to Jose L who rode in from Argentina yesterday.
shiva was let into our Castle while I slept by TLD
and
Mad Matt can now go in there, too.

Geeee! I never saw anything quite like it -
Three New Base Campers within a day hugs

- good thing I have long arms ....
Happy Days Are Here Again
I do not know where you're from or I would have put out a flag
... let me make two wild guesses

All three of you arrive just in time to join us on our annual Christmas Trek.
If you have any questions, please ask, and we'll do our best to help.

Now I'm glad I moonlighted as a traffic cop with the Christians to regulate their influx of new members
even as the pay was lousier than lousy!

Re: Base Camp.......The team that isn't

Good Afternoon Base Campers!
Please welcome our newest New Base Camper
Bryan.
Bryan, should you happen to be a friend of pwrguru's from Team Musketeers?
Anyway, you are a friend of Base Camp's now, and we look forward to Trekking with you.
Are you ready to go tomorrow?
We have lowered the drawbridge over the moat and opened the gate to our Castle.
You may enter and move anywhere you like.
Where are you from, Bryan?

This is a great day: Four New Campers
Big Furry - I see a plot!
- and I love it love struck

Guitar Man's band's name is Backbeat.
When I listened to Rock'n'roll Music
I noticed the word 'backbeat' in the lyrics
and finally got around to look for a definition.
Then I happened to bump into Backbeat's Danish namesake
Backbeat - if you let the page sit for a few seconds, it will bring you music.

EDIT: for some obscure reason, I feel we are to welcome cruncher "C" very soon cool

Re: Base Camp.......The team that isn't

TLD,
Yeah, I think he might be an Army sergeant major, hope no one over at USMC minds to much.
Though those hats always remind me of the Park Ranger in the Yogi Bear cartoons biggrin

Re: Base Camp.......The team that isn't

sunfolk, that Sergeant with the Rhode Island State Police hat
scares me, he's good, but do I get scared ...
as if I have done something wrong all the time ... whistling

Good Morning Base Campers!
The invasion last night went well.
We are 10 tents, we made a lot of noise,
PecosRiverM dropped a tank out of a Hercules,
the beer truck had no muffler,
the sauna was too hot and screamin' boiled us,
the reindeer didn't go peacefully up on the grill,
and the ornaments were too crunchy.
It was a good evening
... and our host team never noticed biggrin

A search for something "camp" turned up a song about Rudolphs bones
- the ones thick enough for being left
Song for Leftovers

looking for that tank
- we may recover a bit of the cost by selling it as scrap metal
EDIT: Since yesterday we have three more tents in Boot Camp:
RAMMIE
shiva [team musketeers]
USAFA 82
rose

welcome!
