NO worries! I just wanted you to be able to plan for next year... :)
I, ahem, manage the field operations for the NCDOT Materials and Tests Unit. (Doesn't tell you a thing, does it...). Basically, I manage technicians who sample/test materials at producer sites used by the nations second...
Welcome to NC!
I'm over in Raleigh, but have a job that has me all over the state, so our paths should meet at some point... :)
This weekend, I'm hosting the VA rally at my Godparent's farm just north of Charlottesville, VA.
In the spring (March/April-near Easter...), we have the NC Rally over...
Short notice and not in the Tidewater Area, but since it is in Virginia and a few folks from Tidewater are convoying up...
This weekend is the Graves Mountain MV Trailrides and Rally (aka, Virginia Rally) up in Syria, VA (just a tad north of Charlottesville, at a farm bounded by the Shenandoah...
I think that I have the other half of that plug dangling from the wires on the front of my trailer... The body looks to be the same size, and it has the two (male) pins...
You will get to look it over at the Graves Rally in VA this weekend... ;)
My M146 has had the cover plates pulled off the breaker boxes, the outlets and conduit trashed (I think that somebody loaded the trailer with a bunch of cargo that shifted, the light switches also have the tangs broken off...). The 110v wiring on the outside has been reworked with two of the...
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
Our special use permit (due to the ongoing process of getting a Health Department's certification of a well in the horse camping field) allows us to begin overnight camping on Friday night, August 29.
If you come on early (Thursday), we'll have to park you behind the packing...
I would have to look at the roster (which I need to update tonight for BMan to use a the registration tent...), but, offhand: Laura and her granddaughter Khloe, Debbie, Donna, Lynn (who has not been before), and Pam. BMan will be joined by his daughter, but I think that his wife and other...
Olbucksnort is correct... You DON'T actually have to arrive and/or have a MV to attend... :)
We should be able to get folks out on the trails as co-drivers...
I also know a couple of folks who are planning on spending the weekend in the pool or hanging out in the big field socializing..
I've had a few phone call concerning camping at Graves... The field that the horse crowd uses (between our field and the main road) is closed to overnight camping due to the drilling of new wells and the Graves are awaiting Health Department ok on them before they resume unrestricted overnight...
The equestrian folks will be camping in the front field again this year and will use some of the same trails we are using. We will once again use the rear entrance to the MV field instead of driving through the area with the horses. The Lodge stables will be open for those of you who wish to...
Welcome from Raleigh...
Since my MKT's appearance at the spring NC rally in Denton has been mentioned, and the GA Rally has also been mentioned, I'll add to the list of events not too far away:
The VA Rally at Graves Mountain Lodge over Labor Day Weekend and the East Coast Rally at Aberdeen, MD...
Wonderful!!
The shop will be open in case you want to do a drive by...but don't plan on using it... :)
I'm not sure that rangemaster Mike will let you "blast away", but we are going to celebrate the 2nd Amendment again this year. ;)
Good looking trailer. Considering the number of them that I've had over the years that have been abused by the former owners (hard use or really odd modifications), yours is in amazing shape.
I'm running omni-volt LEDs in mine so that I can tow with either a civilian 12v truck or one of the...
We spent this past weekend (July 4th) riding the trails and doing some more clearing, etc. We have a few more trials ready for this year than last, including some on the lower elevations of the two mountains that border the property that we can ride on with the larger trucks (you know, five ton...
Olbucksnort will be happy to hear that we also worked on widening the Blue Trail in a couple of spots to that he can run that bobbed truck up another trail... :)
