Count me in!!!!
Visited this great park recently, got two great(???) stamps, looking forward
to the event.
Was at the Oregon Gathering, great fun to meet all the people behind the
stamps in the logs.
Busy month, but should be able to put out some cruddy stamps for everyone's
amusement (but not derision).
By the way, dvn2r ckr, you aren't looking to well, if you aren't feeling any
better, you should probably call in sick on the off chance you have to work
on the 2th. :-)

Oh, I do feel a fever coming on...I hope it won't last several
weeks... ;) I just can't miss a big LB outing, can I? ;) Perhaps
it's a fever for letterboxing? ;)
