West TN bus gathering

uncle ned · April 30, 2012, 04:59:15 PM

I will be there but I need at least a week's notice. It is a long way from western NC when you go the way I do. Hope Kentucky has got a bigger ferry. It will save me a big detour.

I can taste the tri tips and the trip to Lambert's.

BK do I need to bring my own big oak tree.

Looking forward to seeing every one and showing Don the good way back to NC.

No need to bring an Oak tree Ned, we have trees. (mostly sycamores, but they have shade too!)

OK Bringing this back up to the top of the chart again one last time before making the dates definite.

We proposed either the weekends of
August 23rd, 24th, & 25th
or August 31st, September 1st, & 2nd.... (LABOR DAY weekend)

We are tentatively going for the August 23rd, 24th, & 25th right now as the responses we've received in favor of either weekend have been about 50%-50% and it looks as though it would be easiest on "The Don" who's traveling all the way from CA for this. And also my business will be slower then too!

SO IF YOU have anything to add that might sway it one way or the other SPEAK NOW OR FOREVER HOLD YOUR PEACE!

As always anybody & EVERYBODY is invited!
Early arrivals and late departures are welcome too!

I will be there. I will be in and out both weekends if Bryce dont kick me out for being my self to much. LOL

we would like a count as I will be bringing the beef with me, I need to buy it in cal as most people from the mid and west east dont know what a trytip roast is. come on every body lets have a party. Do we need some red solo cups to get it going.

thanks

Don

You are correct Don most of the people like the front of the cow better

In Texas we made ground beef or stew meat with that part of the cow only Californians could come with BQ for those things lol but I still call you my friend ok

Good luck

Had a great time last year looking forward to going again. Both dates are fine with me.

Rick we're 50 miles farther south now, but easier to find because we're right on US 70 now, and not out in the boonies like we used to be. LOL!

I won't know for a few more weeks if I can come at all so you'll just have to set a date and I may or may not be able to make it.

Eric your skoolie is as welcome any $2,500,000.00 rig that shows up! (but I really don't expect the secret service & Obama to show)

No need to be intimidated. We've had pick-up campers, Monte Carlos, Escorts and motorcycles too!

ALL are welcome and it don't matter how ya get here!

Yeah an one yr a guy went to back his Gillig chassis "Country Coach" in beside the GM's that had parked BEFORE we had several days of frog strangling gully washers.

we would like to make a trip home to Brighton this year and this might give me the extra push! I hate traveling on the holiday weekends, the earlier dates my vote.

Don Fairchild · May 24, 2012, 08:08:48 AM

Yea and there was no warning on that one, it sank real quick.

Hey you think if I had that revcon I found up on blocks towed back there Cody would show up, we wouldn't want him to get home sick you know. HE HE HE

Don I agree you had no warning on the sinking as soon as you left the gravel. I was on the phone (with Cody I think, who was broke down in WI @ the time) and trying to get out there to stop you from backing in, but as we all know I didn't make it in time.

As far as the Revcon goes......
Can you tow a "toad" that big without drawing to much attn. from law enforcement?
And if we're gonna tempt Cody with a "Revcon" we gotta do it on the other board as he's still banned here.
