DH4 - Shiver Me Rivets

Jan and I are pleased to host the 4th Four Corners Unit Rally at Dead Horse Ranch State Park in Cottonwood, AZ. The dates are 02/12 - 02/14 with the option of staying an additional night and leaving on the 15th which is President's Day.

It will be held in the same group site as previous years, which means we will be parked in one big Airstream only loop with a giant Ramada and fire pit. The loop also has restrooms and showers. This is dry camping but water is available in the loop and the dump station is nearby. Quiet generators are permitted during the day.

This year's theme is Pirates! We will have Pirate food, fun and maybe a little pillaging. For more information and to sign up for the event, click here: http://www.airforums.com/forums/cale...-12;&e=601&c=1

This event is open to all members of the WBCCI. Let me know if you want to attend as a prospective member.

About the same here! Woke up this morning to eight inches of fresh white stuff and a whopping two degrees. Somebody explain to me why the calendar on this computer reads only October 26.

Folks, the talk coming from AZ about closing the state parks has got me all nervous about DH4. Any word from those closer to the pulse over there with better news than what we hear via the media?

Haven't heard anything from BLM land, but the cuts sound serious...could be a ploy to get more funding...all gov't placements have to play the funding game...sure hope this IS just a game...

Color me optimistic

I had a conversation earlier this year with some of the staff at Dead Horse. If the staff is reduced some of the smaller parks in the Verde valley will be forced to close. Dead Horse is one of the parks that rings in a substantial amount of money and would not be affected unless all of the park funds were totally removed.

The camping fees will be going up at Dead Horse, but that does not happen until March 1st. Most of us will be gone by then...

Heck if they close the Sate Parks we can always have it in Quartzsite.

So, that would be...wait a minute while I drag out the calculator...DH5Q4T3NY3...?Maybe we should just open up our own 'state' park, and pig out for 3 months!!!...I could live with that, but I bet my cholesterol and liver couldn't ...lots of desert golf to counter-act the ingestion...has anyone considered the idea of creating our own park...??? Well, besides me...??? We know how politically correct I am...but it's worth a second thought...

Dale, you've listed many good reasons to be in Deadhorse!

*whispering* Careful Mike wants to play with your sword.

There HAD to be someone who'd do that...I note the absence of a mention of scabbard...do I have to bring up everything in my defense and assault...?well, it is a pirate thing.

The sword will be securely seathed in its scabbard and out of reach from the scallywags. Especially away from White Beard, the Iron Mate.

It has to be tough in Quartzsite this week, your supply of the red juice has been cut off.

If you're gonna ask another pirate if you can play with his sword. Do it discreetly.

I think I got the point...the thrust of the implication...maybe I'm just feeling edgy?
