I might be able to make Friday night. Need to set up the booth for the Va Fly Fishing Festial on Friday. but if I can get in early and get set up-- I might be able to be up there about 6 p.m to 7 p.m.  Planning to fish for a few hours on Friday frm noon to about 3 pm. Was thinking one of those west slope streams north of Waynesboro.

Is the fastest way from Waynesboro  to go north from 33?

The fastest way north from Waynesboro is 340.  Not sure which streams you are planning on fishing, but the fire may have impacted Madison and Payne.  Maybe Lowrod knows.

We are in campsite C. 
http://www.nps.gov/shen/downloadable/Dundo_campground.pdf
confirmation number 4939303 and is regestered to  Bob Runion.  You may need to know that if asked.  Bobby is planning on getting there Firday afternoon and the scouts will be settingup in site E. 

This is bear country.  Don't leave any good in your tent unless you want a furry visitor.
I plan on getting there between 5 and 6 pm. 

The campground is located around mile marker 90, south of Loft Mountain.
Most of you will get on the Skyline Drive at Thornton Gap (I64) and come
north. We will probably fish Mill Prong again. It's about a 40 minute drive
north.

Sorry, I have to bail on dinner Friday. I need to take my mother in law to the doctors on Friday morning at 11:30 a.m. By the time I get her home it will be 1:30 that will put me into Waynesboro around 3 p.m. with a good three -four hours of set up time for the booth.

Still planning to fish on Monday someplace. Had not heard about fire at Payne or Madison. Was this recent?

Remember seeing a fire down in that area a few years ago -- may have been after the first Boy Scout weekend.

Got copies of the DVD for the show for you and Brent and a small gift. Figure out how to get them to you. Maybe just give them to Brent the next weekend. We used lots of your's and his photos.

You guys have fun.

Dan,
Sorry you can't make dinner.  You are going to miss some prime possum.  Brent has been aging it to two weeks on the road in front of his house.

The fire started evening of april 3rd.  Ended up buring about 1,000 acres I think.

In spite of the drought busting rains over the weekend, we had a good one even if the fishing wasn't too good.  I talked to the scout leader last evening and he said all the boys really enjoyed themselves.  I'll let the pictures tell the story.

My son: My dad has two fish on his car and they're both trout!

Had a great time this weekend, even with the rain.  I sure got soaked Friday when I tried to wet a line.  Big thanks to Ralph for bringing the rain up with him.   8)
