Rseas, what can we (and others) bring for the meals? Paper products, plastics? Make a list for us all to help with.

360, with 3 girls the gray hair is coming...

Regarding what to bring I plan to put out the the main course and desert for Saturday night then a Brunch sort of thing on Sunday. If we want to do a group thing for other meals just let me know and I'll come up with something. I'll have a big stack of paper plates, a roll or two of paper towels and plastic utensils. We'll also have a big jar of peanut butter, jam and a couple loafs of bread for lunches that could be for public consumption...

Sounds like a plan. Saturday dinner will be a surf-N-turf thing and on Sunday we'll be enjoying Rseas world famous (no really...) breakfast burritos. If there's anything I can do to help just let me know.

I'll have to think on that one. Lots of possibilities, just depends on how technical you want to get. I was going to do fish tacos for the Rseas camp but I'm always up for a suprise...

I'm going to make a batch of kokanee dip and bring some of the smoked Chelan kokanee from our last trip. We'll bring cheese and crackers as well.

You won't believe the oil content on these Chelan kokanee.

Kitchen sink and all, today is packing day and I'm already pooped! It's a B getting old... I think we have the food covered, the back of the truck is mostly full of edibles.

*THIS JUST IN*

My cousin lives in Eniat and went and fished with his buddy this morning. Trolling outside of the bay in 100-175 feet of water. poles @30,40,50, and 60 feet, 30 and 40 poles doubled twice, 40ft pole seen the most action until about 730. then moved down to 50 and 60 feet, finished of the day with the last fish caught at 75 feet. He said he was just chasing schools of fish in the sonar and when he found them he would get hit. Ended up with 12 fish and he was off the water by 9am. He is meeting up with us tomorrow evening. Hochie spinners in green,orange and pink, 15" leaders and shoepeg with no sauce.
