    My cell number is 912-657-6539. Please give me a call and we can set a time to meet up. I will be staying at Tent Site #4, I'll be the fat bald guy......
    Birddog,

    I pray that I may live to fish until my dying day. And when it comes to my last cast I then most humbly pray. When in the Lord's great landing net and peacefully asleep. That in His mercy I be judged, BIG ENOUGH TO KEEP.

    HWY 129 shoudl take you to Eatonton. From Eatonton take State Route 16 (Sparta Rd) east to Wallace Dam Rd, turn left. You should be able to follow the signs from there.

    Sounds easy enough, I hope they have good road signs because it will be pretty darn dark when I come in!

    Isn't that the way most Shine Runners like to travel, in the dark?
