            :00 at Lowes sounds fine. I see byt he post the PCV pole I have with assorted hardware will work. I made it for a 3×5 flag…We will have to arrange something else if you want to make a demonstration to Vice-Admiral Sir Alexander Cochrane with that huge flag of yours

              The tower is barricaded now and you can’t reach the platform. I suppose you could lash a pole up the side of the platform.

              Puck- Is there a cut-off date in which you need to know by?

              No not really…last minute is fine. However, I put the idea out to some friends of just nabbing it now so you don’t have to worry about it…I will keep youposted. But it will be covered.

                I’ll pick this one up if there are no other takers.

                In the past have people lashed the flagpole to the tower platform?

                    yes he came in for the event. We drove up from CT Sat am.

                    All that driving for six hours of hiking. It is the memorial that makes it worth the trip. Ken aren’t you a long distance hiker trying to get 20+ miles per trip? BTW it was great to have met you Sat night. Are you hitting the CT blue trails soon?

                      to bad it was over in a flash,,,get it flash 😆

                        We could see your flag from Garfield with the naked eye.

                        Peace,

                        Can’t take credit for that flag. I was also very impressed by it. The flag and pole was brought by Trekman and Dirt.

                        We were able to see yours on Garefield.

                        We are bound to run into each other.

                          It was a great experience, folding a flag in an oncoming storm. We waited just off the mountain in the trees until 2:00 for my sister’s family. They almost made it to the peak.

                          Sorry about the keyboards. SOmeone described as “squeezing seals” My brother in law was responsible for those. Out of the cacophony I did hear a melody or two.

                            I have stayed there twice, at last year’s Flag event and then again during the summer. Both times they were helpfull and friendly. However, at last year’s flag event they seemed festive. It made check in a pleasure.

                            Where are you staying this year ?

                            We will be at the KOA Sat night. My sister and crew will also join us…She got bit by the 48 bug and thought that this would be a great way to start it off.

                            Hope to see you there.

                                My son (Gorpburb) are coming up from CT Sat am. He is getting in from western PA Friday night. a 7 am start for Lincoln woods is impossible for us. We will head up either liberty or flume (weather permiting.

                                We are shooting to sumit at 12:00. Let me know if you need anything.

                                Also, we are staying at the KAO again this year.
