Also known as Frost Keg Float. This is my 3rd year to attend and overall it was a good trip. I traveled down to Tahlequah Friday afternoon with Jansen & Patrick. I met Jansen through work and Patrick through Jansen (make sense? good) We had a good time on our way down, killing about a pound of beef jerky and making semi’s blow their horns.
By the time we got there and situated, it was time for the bands to start. We gathered around and listened to Standing Ape Count and The Bedouin Duet while I introduced Jansen & Patrick to my friends in the east.
After a good night of hanging out it was time to get ready to float. The 1st bus left around 11:15 and my bus around 11:30. The float place seemed to have issues and the last bus didn’t get on the water till 3:45. I guess they didn’t believe them when they said there would be 350 people floating. Even though we all didn’t get to float together it was pretty fun. After giving time for everyone to get back to the campsite, I go searching for the later groups and find out that one of my friends went to jail. (click for full story) So I just kinda hung around till it was time to go get him.
Bailing him out was a story in itself. FYI when bailing out a friend you will need:
- 1. a cashiers check or money order
- 2. location of jail
- 3. extra time\ patience (for some reason they are in no hurry to let someone out 11:45-1:15 exiting process)
Needless to say it wasn’t the best FKF, but still fun. Click for pictures (for best browsing results install PicLens)
