[Chaos-l] [Medoc-mountain-men] Tonight at Medoc anyone?

[Phillip Suitt]

It has Allen, thanks, I'll see you soon though. Medoc is by far the best dark place around and it's worth the drive. And it's worth preserving.

Does anyone know if either The Morehead or perhaps the park service at the lake has a lost and found number?

So I was wobbling all night! But when I got back, I bought a new bolt and locking nut so things are working well now. Always good then you can fix your equipment for $1.47!
