Anything in the works?

[Retro93]

I vote for a meeting to be held at John's retreat.

[Mars]

I like that idea

[HOOT]

Should we tell John or just go make ourselves at home.. Wait hold on John is an excellent cook , let's make sure he is there. Unless he can cook us a meal or two ahead of time and one of us coming through Lexington could grab it, thank him and get a key so we don't have to bust into the place.

I'm in!

Will be at the woods this weekend to fix the last of the broken pipes (trip 3!) after the propane co let my place freeze. Lotsa wood down for fire wood, lets do this before the bugs come out!

Well I'm glad you're in. That will save a burglary charge.
So when?

This up coming weekend looks nice

Hey Folks!
I dunno why I was overlooking this forum....sorry

I had originally planned to attend the Gravelrama Swap Meet this Saturday morning.
If you fellows want to have a Meet and Greet at John's place, then I will skip the Swap Meet to come over to visit with you.

I have a dinner at 6PM Saturday evening in Saint Albans, WVa that I need to attend.
I am calculating 3.5 hours from the Cinci area to St. Albans.
So, I can come as early as you like, but I need to leave by 2:30ish

If you decide to have the M&G at Johns, let me know and provide some directions or an address to key in my GPS.

So, does poke'n John help? ...or get my butt kicked?

[HOOT]

John may poke himself but none of us have poked him yet. That I know of...

I was just asked tonight to work all weekend. This would make John's very difficult for me. If work doesn't promise me full days for the weekend then I won't work except Friday night.
IF I leave after work Friday night I would be at John's around 3 am or noon on Saturday. I'll need to leave John's Sunday around noon to go check out a Jeep and leave a deposit on it.
If I end up working all weekend then John's would be canceled for me but I will be able to do the swap meet Sat till 3pm. I'll take off work Monday to go see the Jeep.
Lots of IF's on my end but hopefully I will have solid plans by Late Thursday night.Tonight....
Hopefully we know whether we are camping or swapping by Thursday night as well.
Work will most likely win for this weekend. They are desperate to get these new design machines together and fired up. Nothing like selling 8 machine lines of something you never even had designed yet. With the Holiday next week we will only be working normal hours 4 days so they are piling all the resources into this weekend. Heavy overtime starts the Monday after Easter. but Sundays most likely won't be used unless something goes drastically wrong. So weekend get togethers can happen just about any weekend. The sooner the better though, I'm over due for a food coma again.

Bryan I'll most likely see you if nothing more than for breakfast as you pass through. You'll need a break from the road by Cincy. My treat. Bob Evans, Frisches or whatever.

I'll let you guys know what's up on my end for sure by Friday early morning, 4 am, as soon as I get off work and get home. If I can get online at work I'll let you know a by at least midnight Thursday.

[The PIG Smith]

Mmmm Breakfast!!
I am planning to get up at 5ish pull out of Fort Wayne, IN at 6AM
Hope to be in Cinci around 9ish

I'll be driving my daily beater, white '06 KIA Rio.
It was a freebee given to me by my Uncle
It's not Mercedes or a Full Size Jeep...but does get really good gas mileage.

[OutrageGIS]

HEY!

Howdy guys! Sorry I've been swamped this week., but I'm clear this weekend. I may need to borrow Kim (retro) for a few hours tomorrow to wrap up the last couple of water line breaks (need someone to turn off and on while I'm under the house) but other than that all good.

[OutrageGIS]

How to get there

The last meet thread has directions:

I thought I would have a definite answer by now. All I can say is I might be leaving town Friday noon time or Sat 1am.

The swap meet is off for me for sure.
John's will not be doable either. Although if you guys do get together call me I may be stopping by for a short talk and some major sleep. then back to work for dayshift hours sat and sun.
I don't know what work will tell me when I call them at noon to take off for the night but intend to work sat and sun still. They may just tell me to take the whole weekend off if it pisses them off enough.
I need the money but I need this new Jeep worse and may have to go lay claim to it ASAP. I didn't like the tone of his last email in regards to another interested party. I don't want it to get away.

I will try and post back here around noonish.
