There's a couple in Peru as well.


Try to get out and hike around some today, go to Matheisen (spelled that wrong). It's south of Starved Rock on 178, visit the upper dells which are especially good after a rain! Lots of water falls.

Jordan, the paint looks good! Did you go all out or just cut it with some compound? I'm not going to bring firewood there, it'll be plenty warm. I wonder how high the river will be, we had flash flood warnings here last night.

Is anyone bringing paper plates or condiments? I could have sworn I saw that someone said they are bringing them but I didn't see it just now.

At least the Poopra has a huge fuel tank! It's damn thirsty though.

I'm contemplating bringing a Bluray player and Furious 7 to watch in the hotel after meet activities.
