Ultimate Hugh Heward Update #18

Mark Reports 4-23-09 8:30 pm

There was a break away by Mark as he set up a rendezvous with Michelle for dinner. It time out perfectly as the group of three, Toby Dan and Charlie arrive as Mark re-entered the water to go make camp.

They camped about 15 miles out from Dimondale.

We arrived in Dimondale 8:15am - Scouted the put-in and camp amenities. Then immediately headed over to the Mike's Village restaurant for an outstanding breakfast and an opportunity to jump on his computer and update everyone. Thanks Mike!!

Gonna sort some gear and shuttle some vehicles and wait for the Intrepid 4 to arrive!!
