Absolutely true SherpaJohn. That sure seems to be proving true for the flags event too.
:flag:

Hey? Isn’t Ken (Cops on Top?) traveling from NY also?
He may be the only competition, thus far, for Tom and Laurie’s record setting mileage.

Humm? I don’t see anyone registered on the survey as being from RI.??
😕
JayTrek, care to play along?

Dirt and I travel about 220 from north central CT – he is actually in MA but comes for breakfast before leaving town! 😀

I have some friends I’m trying to get to particpate. They live in Oregon and Washington, so the challenge is on!

Jay – Issues or no… please enter your state? You are one of maybe three people living in the entire state of RI!
A zero just looks so pathetic, come on?
😕 😀
TrekMan – that must be some kind of breakfast for Dirt to travel to CT for! I don’t think backtracking for breakfast counts as actual miles. However, you travel a respectable distance, grasshoppers.
😮 😀
Chris – I think the folks from Oregon and Washington would take the mileage record… the challenge is them getting here!!! The mileage would be as the crows fly, of course?

D-G … when Dirt and I cook it is always worth a 15-minute drive. Remember that we have bottled a homebrew (Blueberry Flume) and plan to drag the growlers with us to KOA. We will test the batch soon to see how it came out.

I haven’t forgoten yet and am looking forward to the treat!

Breakfast is important. Testing a batch of beer, is way more important. I’m sure you’ll find it most tasty. Need another tester?!

He lives in Queens and he’s going to Kinsman, so I plugged in Lincoln and got 327 miles!

So, it’s pretty close! I guess we’ll go by our odometers! 😀

Okay, I’m not great at math but even I can figure this one out!
There are over 250 hikers particapating
in this years event and only 20
have responded to the poll ?!?! 😮

What is that… 8 percent!! 😥
