oh man, for me, last year's tip up town was an unexpected drunken debacle!! (i was supposed to be a 'pucker' girl, and ended up getting so loaded during the day that kourie did it by herself...lol!) i'm kind of excited for this year, but didn't know what anyone else was doing/had planned/is staying.

anyone make resos already? i'm about to go online and look for a house to rent near the main site (and the limberlost, of course!

)

thoughts? ideas?

I have a room reserved and a couple of sleds to take up.
I had a few people lined up to go but most backed out saying there will be no ice or snow.
I will most likely go up, alone or with someone, it don't matter to me....

yes, hotel room just out of town.
They will still have the festival and carnival there will just be a lot less ice fishing and snowmoibling....

that sucks. what about the beer tent? would they move it somewhere else? of course, that would mean the bars will be packed early.

A group of us are going up to Boyne Jan 23-25, I was planning on stopping for a few on the way up and back. I'll give ya' a buzz, if your not TOO buzzed!

When will YOU be there?

 

[TripleG]

When I first started going about 12 or more years ago the tent was on the ice. Due to unpredictable ice conditions the tent has been on land near the shore for 8 or more years now. I'm sure that it will be in the same place.

I would love to go and see some of my local TUT buds. It's been a few years. However I am really gonna try and behave in Jan. Save some cash, let my liver heal and get some more work done around the house so I can play guilt free all next summer.

Those of you that are going, take lots of pictures. Maybe you'll capture some of my old friends.

Have fun!!

ck, dana and myself will be going both weekends.
as of now there is ice on the lake but like last year
there are some open spots

but only if your on a sled do you need to worry about that!
this show goes on whatever the conditions, the tent will be in the same spot as last year. i know of one cabin open for the last weekend right near the site.
we go up early friday afternoon both weekends so let
us know what your plans are

I would like to head up with your group if you don't mind.

I can cancel my room.....I have to find the paperwork, I can't even remember where it's at. I made the reservation last Aug.

Thanks,
Gregg
