Re: Fort Frederick

Hi Mark,
We will be there Friday night, no idea where we will be campming though! Look for the ugly oilskin tarp with patches on it, I'll tie a piece of red wool on the pole.

Re: Fort Frederick

Amy and I will be leaving around noon on Friday, if you guys can camp in the overflow area that they have used in the past, the overflow area is above the parking lot and if you want to leave early you can pack out easily from there also that area has a great veiw.

Re: Fort Frederick

Thanks Buzz. We'll be in around 7-8 friday evening.

We had excellant game hens Saturday night for dinner, Sausage , cheese and bread. Mixed with with some spirits. Sunday, A light breakfast, And for lunch some soup and bread.

Josh aquired two Wilde half blankets, Tom a new knife, Cindy new mitts, and a half Blanket(Wilde) and myself two new knives by Randy Wolfe. One a folder and a larger belt knife.

Met Mark Hersee and family, great people!

We had a great time and I think we are planning to go back next year. It is the place to go for vendors! Everyone was there.
