UPDATE
I've had a number of folks ask about the area restaurants; To the best of my knowledge, they are all open to at least carry out and Most if not all are open for limited seating dine in.

I received this message from Bat Masterson:

"I spoke to Emily with the Comstock Lodge yesterday and she said she would be doing her lunch delivery to the range again this year.  When I explained about Del she even sounded open to making a limited number of lunches for non CL guests.  She said she thought they were about $10 Ea. last year, packed in a small cooler you gave her and delivered to the range at noon.

I also found this link on the CL webpage about restaurants in the Sargent area.  You could also follow the back links to contact them about lunches.  She also said she has open rooms this year with all the cancelations.

Being a newbie, another question.   Do we need to bring firewood/charcoal?   I usually hesitate transporting firewood across state lines.

Emily also said that the Trotter (local stop and rob if you've never been there) has the best pizza in town as well as lots of fried goodies and sandwiches.  I got a case of heartburn just listening to her talk about it.

Ice, go to the Corner Market for Ice, they have the six 5 pound bags aka bale for less than a 20# there or at Trotters.  The best deal on Ice I've seen, easy to divide.

Just an update, I should not die soon, I seem to be over the pneumonia and my left lung is fully inflating again.   I start back in Rehab Friday, have not been since I think March when it was cancelled due to the WW WU Flu or what ever they call it today.   I was scheduled originally to being done before the muster and have completed less than 1/4th of it.   

Going to be hard not seeing everyone this year, have hardly been out of the house since we got home in early January, not just because of this Wu Wu thing but the risk of a cold or regular flu, was wearing a mask in public before it was cool.   I know that has been tossed around but my Drs tell me, no the masks won't stop the virus, but the virus doesn't travel along dry and by itself much, it travels on the snot/saliva that is coughed/sneezed out and a mask will stop most of that and lower the risk of a high risk person catching it.   This is what they told me before I went home and this other virus was just a rumor.     Even lowering the amount of virus coming in allows your immune system to have a better chance of destroying it.   This follows pretty much anything I've been taught in science class.

Glad to hear that Glen!
I've been wondering how you were doing but have just got home from the daughter's house. She lives so far out in the boonies that there isn't signal. I'll give you a call in the next couple of days.

Ok, I found a venue for the Banquet and have it reserved. The Comstock Lodge personnel will serve the meal Saturday evening.

They are also willing to make individual lunches and bring them up to the hill. Anyone interested in this service should contact Emily Jandreau at (720) 431-1989 or emily.jandreau@icloud.com by June 22 and pay the Lodge directly.

I will be returning any funds I have received for meals. If you haven't sent your registration please do not include any payment for meals other than any extra banquet tickets for camp followers.
