I don't want to know how it got that name.

So named because Lorena lives there half the year...

Wow, all I can say is WOW. I wonder if this came up as an issue when they added it to the campground roster and if they had to vote to keep or change the name? Maybe nobody even noticed.

Actually, this was a HUGE controversy, before they renamed it.
Used to be called Oozing Scabby Dick Cabin / Creek.

TCK; this is your neck of the woods.
Montana, I mean.
Care to educate?
Posted by: slyeyes | February 15, 2006 at 08:44 PM
sly, why do we think (read: know) that somehow TCK is involved in this? :)

Does that say "Reserve your place under the stars" or "Reserve your place under the scars?"
Posted by: bbescuela | February 15, 2006 at 08:50 PM
I believe it said No Reservations. I would guess so...

From the directions: ".....then 7 miles west of Grant at Red Butte, turn right (north) onto the Bloody Dick Road...."
Who first mapped this territory - Bundy & Bates?

Quick! Someone pencil in a reservation!

Uh, was that a reference to "possible exposure to Hantavirus" I saw in the campsite detailed description? Bloody Dick, indeed.

Quote: The cabin s equipped with a table, cooking and eating utensils, AXE, shovel, bucket, cleaning gear and firewood.
No other comment is necessary.

*SNORK* at Aunt Nancy for the "pencil" thing from another thread...
and Alfred, I know I'd have PLENTY of reservations.

Bloody Dick Cabin (members only).

Bloody Dick Lake (easy to find if you know the region).

I thought Cheney shot that guy in Texas.
Posted by: chuko | February 16, 2006 at 12:47 AM
I shot the sheriff, but I did not shoot the deputy.
Posted by: Eric C. | February 16, 2006 at 01:00 AM
I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die.

The elbow must have been threatening him in an aggressive manner.

i'm jewish. i dont go camping. 40 yrs in the desert with Moishe and the guys absolved us of all desire for 'camping'. why camp when you have a perfectly nice house, no bugs and, air conditioning.???
my idea of camping is to go to a motel that has only regular cable.
thanks deadeye dick, i'll pass.

Hmmm ... queensbee is Jewish ... train of thought ...
I think I know how this place got the name!
(I'm sorry. Really. Why do I do these things? I only get myself in trouble ...) Send your letters of complaint to ...

Posted by: Blue Meanie | February 16, 2006 at 09:26 AM

Posted by: queensbee | February 16, 2006 at 09:30 AM
The Indians prefer the traditional name, Lake Hurtswhenipee.

Has anyone else noticed the pattern of penile injury-related posts on the blog?
Posted by: Scott | February 16, 2006 at 09:38 AM
**SNORK** at nateislate!
Posted by: Aunt Nancy | February 16, 2006 at 10:25 AM

Posted by: Nancy M. | February 16, 2006 at 10:41 AM
Tupik stays there every year.
Posted by: Bill | February 16, 2006 at 12:42 PM
C-Bol, you owe me a new keyboard. I snorked applesauce all in this one.
Great, just what we needed, a Druish Princess.
Funny, she doesn't look Druish!

Maybe the guy who named it was British -- they have a bread-pudding dessert called 'spotted dick.'
(tap, tap, tap)
*waits for the first 'pulling your pudding' joke*
Posted by: CandyT | February 16, 2006 at 03:27 PM
CandyT - I had spotted dick once when I was in England, but some penicillin cleared it right up.
And you have to make up your OWN pudding pulling joke. Then you must share it with us. 'Cause we're like that.
Posted by: Mr. Completely | February 16, 2006 at 03:34 PM
Speaking of Dicks, I don't know how we all missed this one, given the animal involved.
