What a great weekend! My first Halloween a la Bartons. Couldn't ask for better weather, better water, or better hosts! Many thanks for the hospitality, great food, bonfire, etc. :clap:

Also, special thanks for the tree removal crew. One less hazard on Richland creek is a very good thing. :D

I just got in about 30 mins ago, and just wanted to say thanks to Dale and Pam, you guys are awesome. Thanks to Rocky for food and a fun time in the kitchen this morning. I can't wait for next year's event.
Stopped by Falling Water on my way out, it was looking prety good. Did anyone run off it yesterday or saturday?
I think I'm gonna go catch up on my ZZZZs.

Terry, Jeff, and I just made it back to Oklahoma from the BEST HALLOWEEN PARTY that we have been too in a while at the Barton's.

Dale and Pam, :clap:
THANKS so much for all the hard work that you do putting this halloween party on. I am sure this party takes alot of planning and work with all the decorations, bonfire, food, hayride and story time for the kids. I wish I could have seen the River monster, I think it would have made me pee my pants! It was alot of fun seeing all the kids, and some of the adults in their halloween costumes, and camping, there were ALOT of adults in the classic "camper" costume.

What a bonus this year that Richland was running! :D
I got to run the last rapid in the raft, with Terry and Jeff, and it was alot of fun. Maybe I can work my river courage up and run the entire thing next time in the raft. They might just loose their shuttle bunny yet!

Once again, thanks for putting the best halloween party together, is was awesome! :clap:

Will see you all again next year for sure

What a beautiful day on Richland. So fun to see old friends and make new friends.

Thanks to the Bartons and all the great chefs for the amazing potluck dinner. That was some incredible edibles!

Wish Halloween at the Barton’s was a year round event... and that Richland had a release of 2" of air, but we it isn’t happing :mrgreen: so I will have to settle with the AWESOME time there this year.
