Some of us did have wings! They have a nice mango/habanreo sauce that starts sweet and then gets hot. Kinda like a marriage...

That was a pretty good turn out! Had some good conversation and maybe too much beer. But made it home safe. I think I lost or forgot a map though. Nice meeting new people, chatting with some i knew before. Ready to paddle!! I will watch for y'all in the wilderness.

There are always a few in the group wearing something with the "flying moose" logo. Also look for the friendliest, most open looking group. : )

The place is walking distance from my house, I hope to be there. That said, my two oldest girls are home from college that day for their spring break, and my wife's birth day is 2/28. So, we may be going out that evening for a family meal. Maybe we will go to Old Chicago...
