Any alachua residents going to the Midwest Workshop in St. Louis this weekend? Anyone willing to stop by alachua one evening this week and pick up a camera for me and transport it to St. Louis? Andreas Hagberg, in Alachua, sold me his camera and strobe (pending payment), and rather than ship it, I thought maybe someone could bring it along.
thanks,

I misunderstood the topic title since it's relatively early, and thought to myself "Goodness, that's a long traverse...".
From the Mill Creek put in to St. Louis it is 869 miles OTR (over the road via Interstate). Using ccr with dpvs and considering set points & stages, maybe it be triple that distance, considering the conduits are passable ! If planned properly, you could viably egress along the way for meals...ie: DD-Waffle House-Applebees etc ! Of course you would need wet phones to communicate with top side support ! Gee, I just don't know if this is do-able ?Quote:

I'm from the great north woods, but even I know that there's much better BBQ than Sonny's. This is a side benefit of cave diving. When Tracy and I first came south in 2004 to go cavern diving, we thought Sonny's was great. As we spent time in north Florida progressing from cavern through cave, Abe Davis and onward, we received an education about barbecue as well as about cave diving from our various mentors. We are headed south two weeks from tomorrow, and I'm already salivating for barbecue! Oh, and cave diving, of course.Quote:

They opened a Sonny's in Columbus, Georgia. I don't know how long it lasted, but a few months later they tore it down and built a bank in its place.
Lo these many years ago, a buddy came with me to cave country and insisted on Sonny's. I'd never been there. Won't go back.

Sonny's is to barbecue as McDonalds is to hamburgers . I don't eat at McDonalds either. I'm a Southerner, but you really have to give Texas it's due barbecue wise, oh and North Carolina too, but I like the Texas type best myself.
Huh? In Texas they think barbecue is made out of a cow???
