Which, by the way, was named for a man whose name was William Burton, is hosting the Robbers Cave Fall Festival. This is good because the State Park is five miles north of the town. Those of us who made the trek to the first Warrgarbl might remember it as the little town that had a Dollar General in it (yes, I know... all towns have a dollar general unless they are so small they don't even need a postage stamp), and also had the left turn from 270 up to the camp grounds.

The easiest way that I've found to get there is to take the Muskogee turnpike all the way to I-40, turn left or west, then drive for about 8 miles, to the town of Warner. Take highway 2 (exit 278) and go south. You'll go through a bunch of dinky little town for about 30 miles. When you get to Kinta (I love that name), turn left, continuing on highway 2. About 6 miles down the road, highway 2 turns south again. Stay on it, and in about 15 miles or less, you'll be in the middle of Robbers Cave State park. The festival is there, and there are bound to be signs, or just follow the smell of humanity.

As for traveling in a pack, we can meet up along the route at a pre-determined time. Since the event doesn't shut down until 10 pm (rides AND vendors), I don't feel a big time crunch. Besides, I may have things to do on Saturday, as I may have an early morning visitor. I may not get out of the house until 10ish, 11ish or even noonish. All this is variable, depending on how you folks feel.

Life is nothing if not dynamic and changing, and those that don't or won't adapt, follow entropy to the abyss.

Woo hoo! Saturday road trip!

Smog and I definitely want to go, and I'm flexible as to times and caravaning.

W00T!!

As Sherry wants to go too, we may co-ordinating at parking in the Hacker's parking lot, picking her up and driving onward.

I think Becky wants to go, too. Not sure about Riley. They were going to discuss it further and tell me tomorrow.

We're leaning on the "yes" side. I'm in Coweta tonight, but Riley and I were going to settle it once I get back there (probably Friday mid-morning).

Sherry better back out now, so as not to impede planning. I'm on day 4 of headaches with no sign of it slacking off and today I'm chilled to the bone and can't get warm. I think I'm gettin' puny again. So I'm gonna stay in and take my echinacea and goldenseal and try to ward it off at the pass. I'm probably too much of a gimp anyway.
