On Finances, Memory, and Poop...

We're thinking we'll book online through Lumberman's Monument this week. The sites still cost just 5 bucks a day (for up to 10 people and 3 tents) and there is a 9 dollar reservation fee. That means booking 3 nights will cost $24, or $2.65 a person if all nine of us go. Apparently, even in America it's still cheap to drive to the middle of the forest, sleep in the dirt, and shit in a hole in the ground. The idea has even been flown to book two sites, allowing us a little more privacy, though I guess that's never really been an issue before.

I want some opinions on this map though. We're pretty sure #27 is the Original Camping Site. But, if you look, site #19 on Gravel Point, I think is the prime site. The one with the awesome view of the lake on two sides and the giant open site (if I remember correctly the year we were there was the year Tommy drank nothing but Fruitopia and Kevin nearly killed Trevor. Fun times.)Also, gravel point is where I believe they have the actual, albeit rustic, outhouse structure whereas over by #27 is where there is a shitter in the middle of a ravine that Tommy found after Paul and I wiped our asses with leaves. However, I know that only matters to those of us whose bodies like to poop a lot. I also know all the sites kind of blend together there, but if anyone remembers any specifics as to the best site to get after the map jogs your memory, comment here.

Or, comment here anyway and stop being an asshole.

to the best of my memory #27 is the campsite we had on my first trip. I think that we've had at least 2 other sites. Right? The one that was too close to some other, and the one that was too far from anything.
But I doubt that either of them was #19.
I'm probably forgetting it then, because we all know that when you drink morning to night you tend to loosen up the details a bit.
Having said that, from the map anyway, #19 does look promising.

Tommy, some time when I'm really, really, really bored you can show me how long it took you to find those images. Good work.
