All,
Way back in the cold winter on 1/29, all of the members of PBX received this edited and altered email from Bob.
Boys…our Big Trip for 2010 is titled ”West Bank Oswego”.
On Saturday, May 1st, at 7:30 AM we’ll meet along the fence at the entrance to Wading Pines Campground. From there we’ll take as many vehicles as needed up to the starting point; the little parking lot at Lake Oswego. And instead of canoeing down Oswego River like the tourists do, we’ll start out at the dam by foot and by boot and travel the West side of the river all the way the hell down to Martha. We’ll then make a hard right and head off though the woods until we get to the Wading Pines Campground, where we can have our usual hot shower and barbecue at the end.
Beer, beef, salads, and good company after a good strenuous exploring trip—it just doesn’t get any better than that!
This trip will be just about 8 miles long after all is said and done. Get your cranky, lanky, creaky body into shape for it. It’ll do you good! Call in for that day off right now if you work Saturdays. The rain date is the following Saturday. We’ll hit it one way or another. We’ll never canoe that river again without thinking about this trip. I’m looking forward to it!
I want to see you Boys there-no excuses.
Happy Trails until then………..bob
So today it happened, and from 7AM until 6PM we did just what Bob said we would do, and after that we partied. On this trip ... Oji, Bobpbx, Redneckf350, Long-a-coming, Woodjin, Hewey, Mickey, Paul, Jessica, and me (Teegate).
Parked along the road to Wading Pines at 7:30 this morning getting our gear together.
Into the woods.
Jeff checking out an area about 60 feet off the Oswego River.
Same place with the sun beating down on us.
Mickey stole that feather from me!
Jessica braved the elements and did not wear boots. Here she found a concrete monument.
Rest stop.
Sex on Jessica!
Jessica spotted this little turtle while she was forced to have her back turned while Bob swam naked in the river. Yea, he was naked today! Chris caught the turtle.
It looks so relaxed.

Then the scary snake!
Zoomed 40x
Lunch time!
Bob realized right away what this was. Notice the holes in the can. Blueberry pickers would wear this around their waist in years gone by.
Jessica and Tom crossing a canal.
Others should add more later. It was a very nice day for sure!
