    20th ORT in The Lone Ranger – Flat Nasty 8/24/13

    A couple of folks headed down the Friday before to do a little camping down at the park. It’s a primitive campground, and since the park wasn’t busy, we had the whole area to ourselves which made it nice and quiet. Just the way I like it.

Apparently you need to knock on the door to…
