Ok, so lets just make it clear:

Sept. 13th, 14th, & 15th- Friday, Saturday, & Sunday in Florida, MA. Checking-in either Friday night, or early Saturday Morning; I'll make the Reservations for a site for both Friday and Saturday nights.

There are two cars allowed on each site, but parking for others is an easy hundred yard walk. Four tents allowed on each site. No Adult Beverages "officially" allowed at State Campgrounds.

Anyone interested in joining Doug, Myself, and possibly Charlie from the DC area, and Jack if he still has the Raider?, please let me know. It can be done from anywhere in MA, VT, NH, CT, RI, as a one day thing, but camping relieves that long commute after a day of bumping around.

Campsites are ten bucks, total. Not for the amount of people, just for the site.

There are a few other trails besides Old Florida Road that we can hit also.

Besides, I'm still trying to sell that beast. Just blew close to $400 on it to rebuild the front suspension (shocks, 'A'arm shafts, and various steering components). Gee, I wonder how everything got so beat? <img border="0" alt="[Shiner]" title="" src="graemlins/shiner.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" /> Dropped the price a bit, I just have to sell it soon, the insurance on it isn't worth the hassle. Doug, need a good parts or project Raider? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" />

Sorry to hear it, Jack. $400.00 is always too much when you're planning to sell, isn't it? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="images/icons/frown.gif" />

Doug, I have Reservations for Friday and Saturday nights. Its the same exact campsite as last time! I'll be there Friday afternoon. Are you heading up Friday, or early Saturday?

Think you can find the Campground? Its right past the Northern terminus of Old Florida, and you've been there a few times, so you should remember. But I'll help you out if you can't.

There are a few more sites available, so if there are any other guys (or hopefuly girls- but thats a long shot <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" /> ), out there that would like to come along, just say the word.

Matt? Did you get the Sport fixed yet?? Even if you didn't, would you like to do a ride along? The more spotters, the better.

Charlie? I know its a haul for you, but hows it looking?

p.s. Doug, I'll be in the mood for steak. Lets do it right this time. I'll be bringing up the good wood, and we can also use a "real" grill, ok?

I forget... did they have grill over the fire pits as well. Otherwise I will be getting a camp setup. Not talking about the one on the pole... the one where the big fire put is. I forget if they had a grill on that, or if I just used charlie's.

I probally will be getting there after dark on friday, as I have my last class at 4:30. I will pack prior and will hit the road right from there.

I just realised I still have to change out my cv. I have to get it done... but it still pisses me off.

If they dont fix it right this time I am charging them for my time.

Well, either get that thing done, or make it "click" in time to some music.

btw-I found a great bunch of trails around my neck of the woods this weekend. Really good stuff. I'm working out some sort of route, and this winter sometime, or later this fall, we can hit it. It would be fantastic in the snow. I took a night run this evening, and MAN do those rocks look a lot scarier in the dark!

Anyway, I'm really looking forward to this weekend. I hope the K5 shows up, remeber that one we saw rip over those rocks on Florida with the jeeps? Pat would have a ball.
