Just got everything cleaned up and did a test drive. I might adjust the TV cable once or twice, but other than that, I'm done <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I've got the chevy pretty much ready, and the new trailer is looking good. I have a couple of towing related items that should be here by wednesday. Just need to pack my tools and camping gear.

I might end up leaving Wednesday night and get a few hours down the road before crashing at a rest stop. Plan on hitting the campground Thursday afternoon.

Man, it feels good to be ready <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

<img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> EXCELLENT! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Andre - if it wasn't a 'school day', I'd be toasting the news with an Irish Coffee <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/drunk.gif" alt="" /> - but for now, I guess plain-old-regular coffee will have to do <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

Dang it! (That's all my screen name will allow me to say) I can't make it after all. i started out with a minor wobble in the front end this summer. Did nothing. By Saturday night it has developed into a death wobble. Will have to replace several steering components before treking that far from home.

Callalantee will have to wait until next summer for me. Will see you guys at Uwharrie.

Sorry you won't be making it Roger. Those things have a way of popping up at the last minute, don't they?



Nothing much new to report, other than my uber-skid plates. Now that the truck is done, I've got plenty of loose ends to finish up at work before taking the long (and well deserved) weekend.

Roger - I couldn't help but laugh <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> at the way you said it - but I sure am sorry to hear it! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />


Good luck with the repairs -- We'll see you in October.

I just had a thought about dinner one night. Some tacos would be pretty easy with the stove setup. Maybe with some rice and beans. Should be a pretty quick meal. It sounds like Thursday is covered, so either Friday or Saturday night.

How's that sound?

The GIANT free-standing 4-burner Cook Stoveààà.. Zero Dollars!
Cookware, Pots, and Pansàààààààààààà......... Zero Dollars!
Tacos for 20+ Hungry Campersààààààààà......... 35 (or so) Dollars
Add Beans and Riceàààààààààààààà............. 10 (or so) Dollars

You caught me day-dreaming Smiley. But that begs the question, "Who is more pathetic, the lurker, or the one looking to catch lurkers?" <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />
