I did OTR 96-00, that is a crazy place . :costumed-smiley-007 Actually "crazy" is too mild. It's something you just have to experience.:wings: :gunt: I didn't realize it was the same weekend. I was talking about going to Bowden one day for an easy beginners trip:chowtime:

ummhmm

Sorry to hear you won't be able to make it. Jim and I were planning to use you as bait in case Al got ideas, but now with Jared coming we should be able to modify the plans abit.

Maybe we can do a late Sept. or early Oct. trip when the leaves are turning.

LoL......hopefully he won't be too enticed, I am just a little guy...but if someone has to be the one, i will in sake of the adventure.... but id sure like to be able to make the next one. lol :wings: I am really excited already packing....

I was told by Jim that I have to put my CB in my truck, that I can't show up with a dirty truck (though work grime is it's natural coloring), that all my equipment must be color matched and monogrammed, no ball caps only Tilley hats, must give up my parking place to Toyotas, wear only campshirts in khaki and no sleeveless T-shirts, and must refer to him as James and not Jimbo.

I think I'll put my CB in then go kick Jimbo's *ss.:littlefriend:

Hmmm...
Friday - Dinner with Wild and wonderful locals
Saturday - Dinner with Morlocks
Sunday- Dinner with Al

Sorry, Mark, old friend, but my shedyool appears to be full for the upcoming weekends activities. Please advise my secretary of our conflicts. We should be able to resolve these to allow a kicking at a time more convenient to the both of us.
Sincerely
James

quote as posted by Haggis:
My sister had one as a vet truck and I think with 300,000 miles it was still going strong when her boss traded it in.

Just to clarify...yes it had about 300,000 on it but we(meaning me) also blew the side out of the block driving to an emegency farm call...those were the days

Sorry to hear you can't make it Jeremiah, maybe next time.

Welcome Jared and Shane. and Alan. It'll be nice to meet everyone.

Also, is everyone cool if I share the contact information you provided on the sign-up form with ALL participants but only participants? Just in case any participant needs to contact any other participant for whatever reason. Or would you prefer that I alone have the contact info?

Just curious - I'm cool if you guys have my cell for the trip, but everyone has different privacy concerns.

Since no one else answered, O Fearless Leader of the Eastern Junkets, I will begin. Yes I am cool with shared contact info. I'd even provide my cell to those signed up. That way if someone needs anything; directions, vehicle assistance, etc; they have a better chance of getting hold of someone involved who can provide some form of assistance. I know there are some areas the cells don't work. but between CB and cell we stand a fair to middlin' chance of communicating as needed. Of course if we all fell in line with the "Out West" crew we'd all be HAMs and communication would be no problem....Ooh that sounds good...(puts Ham on grocery list):chowtime:

I'm afraid we're posers at best.

At least we look cool at the mall...

Agreed. :wings:

Share away Chris, it would be a good idea for more than 1 person to have that info just in case someone can't make it at the last minute or something happens on the way.

I missed this too, yes send out my contact info, when are you sending out the site info? The drum roll playing in my head is giving me a headache

Just got done going over the Dodge; checking fluids, greasing ball joints, checking universals and the like, any thing to keep the mind busy. This week has been crap and can't wait to escape to the woods for a while, had to take a long walk in the backwoods to keep from losing it. Sometimes being in business for yourself is a major pain in the buttocks.

On a different thought, when are boys plannin' on pullin' out, Sunday midday, afternoon, or Monday morning?
