Black Owl Posted August 13, 2011 Author #7 Posted August 13, 2011 Oh Oh! Just heard a rumor that MikeAliasMike from Iowa may be issuing a Chili Challange. Had Mikes chili at the Venture Round up in Cody two years ago. May have to take this one a bit more serious. Particularly if he has Ms Jodi helping him.:rotfl: So, bring it on Mike..... :stirthepot:

Riderinthesnow Posted August 14, 2011 #16 Posted August 14, 2011 Bernice and I are planning to be there. I just hope it is a little warmer than last year!
Black Owl Posted August 14, 2011 Author #17 Posted August 14, 2011 Bernice and I are planning to be there. I just hope it is a little warmer than last year! Gary tells me he's been in contact with the "Man", and he has promised great weather for the entire week-end. So, we'll keep the light on for you and it will be good to see you both.
Scooter Bob Posted August 14, 2011 #18 Posted August 14, 2011 Gary tells me he's been in contact with the "Man", and he has promised great weather for the entire week-end. What, ya mean we don't need to bring our SNOWMOBILE riding gear this year?
Black Owl Posted August 14, 2011 Author #19 Posted August 14, 2011 "Great weather" is relative. If one is a duck hunter, than cool damp, overcast sky is "great weather". For a skier it's fresh snow. At my age, just being around for any weather is a blessing. So...... Whatever it be though, just getting together with old friends and making new overcomes any adverse weather..... Now how's that for a Minnesoda outlook????
Black Owl Posted August 15, 2011 Author #21 Posted August 15, 2011 I have received several responses to the mass E-mail invitation I sent out asking about motels in the area. If anyone is looking for a motel, the information can be found at www.porkinthepines.com

Particularly if he has Ms Jodi helping him.:rotfl: So, bring it on Mike..... :stirthepot: Yes Owl, I will be there barring world catastrophe, blinding snow, or mechanical intrusion beyond repair. I'll be bringing ingredients to support my claim of whipping your arse in chili making. As for JODEE , she'll be right by my side cause I'm not letting her out of my sight with you around. Smooth talking great horne..d owl.

Condor Posted August 15, 2011 #24 Posted August 15, 2011 The VR Chili Challenge is alive and well at the POKE.... Now all you have to do is match the number of pics taken at Cody so we all that can't be there can enjoy the happening vicariously.. Heck I'll even go out and pick up a rack of ribs at Sam's...
