The best sales on propane turkey fryers are right after Thanksgiving, or watch 
the yard sales in the spring. Most of them will hold 4-5 gallons of oil and 1-2 
gallons of turkey.

 Got a turkey fryer?  If you can find a way to scoop em out, or have a
 basket, the fryer makes good fries.  I made white sweet tater fires
 for turkey day.  They were really good.

 I hand cut the fries with a 10 chef knife.

I know in scouts we would do dutch oven peach cobbler on the remains of a
wood fire, if you bring the oven and have a bonfire, might want to try it.

Sounds like I'll have to see if I can make the end of the world 2012

It's about 3 1/2  hours-175 miles  from Goddard Park to Portland ME. Depends
on how far downeast or up north you are in Mane as Portland is really
southern Maine. But the picnic site is only 10/15 miles off I 95 so if you
were going through, it would be an easy stop..

it's about 70 miles to Logan Airport in Boston and 65 miles from downtown.

Kaleb,
It's about 3 1/2  hours-175 miles  from Goddard Park to Portland ME. Depends
on how far downeast or up north you are in Mane as Portland is really
southern Maine. But the picnic site is only 10/15 miles off I 95 so if you
were going through, it would be an easy stop..

Because of the shape of the highways unless you go through Canada you pretty 
much have to go through MA to go to Maine and RI is just half an hour or so 
south of where the east/west and north/south highways meet. Just reschedule 
your trip, easy this far out.

 Awards we given for jalopys, not so jalopys, story telling expertise and 
cooking expertise (that might be a stretch) complete with impressive trophys

 Several test drives were taken and comparisons made to cars current and past 
and a fine time was had by all.

Got a turkey fryer?  If you can find a way to scoop em out, or have a

Same thing!  Down in Cajun country the same one serves for seafood 
boil and for frying crawdaddy, or whatever.  Unless you want to 
spring for peanut oil, canola oil has a lower smoke point than soy 
oil.  Heat it to 375, add the fries a little at a time, just enough 
to keep the oil from boiling over.  When they are browned enough, 
pull em out.  Buy some popcorn salt to shake over them.  It is a 
finer grain, so it sticks better.  Regular salt will fall off.
