That translates to 10.7

Alright damn it, if free lunch request makes me commit then I'm in (facebook submitted after some uncertainty trying to figure out how)!

What's the deal with some of the Lexingtonians? Ride sharing, heading out Friday afternoon for some laps, day trip, weekend camping, anything, anybody?

SO! I had thought I would get on here and blast those that need blasting but seems bob took care of that....

Just a note on progress......

-we did not get the chance to finish everything we started. Due to lack of attendance we did not have the manpower :shock: that being said the water bars that were installed need to be tightened up and adjusted, I will be down next weekend to square them away. Please be patient with me on this.

- there is also a few areas on the new trail that need gravel and drainage work. This will come next weekend also, as before we ran out of time and $$. I mean we HAD money but I spent it all on food.......oops, was that a cheap shot??? my bad...

anyway, to all those who came and stayed the course. You guys and gals ROCK!! hardworking and motivated!! 8) mass thanks to all who came and helped.

Bull shit. We had 6 or 8 of us doing the manpower of 25 people.

Seriously, thanks for everything Mike - you and the rest of the crew did a great job and we got a lot accomplished.

Any chance we can get a free back massage clinic set up? I'm not used to doing real work! :oops:

Special thanks Mike for all his efforts and his donation for this trail day. Thanks to everyone who helped organize the event and to all who put in their sweat equity. In addition to what Mike plans for Sat. to follow up, I will organize work crews either next week, next weekend or both to try to knock out some more of the remaining tasks.
