Re: RE: OK a couple more
We're gonna hold you to this, David! In your retirement, we expect you to be driving your M1031 maintenance truck back and forth to all these rallies...with your sons in tow! :)
I reckon No.2Diesel is working, catching up on the few days he had to take off work. He...
Who was the guy with the video camera who was jumping in and out of the trucks on that last really tight run down the rock slope? He must have video of that....
Just got off the phone with the Rally Commander in Chief, David. Said the pics will be posted sometime this week, he will be recovering from a long trip until then. He just got home 2100 hours Monday.
Other than a few instances on Automotive Foresty (having to use the front bumper of the 5-ton to push trees down!), the 5-ton did well. I reckon the power steering made it rather easy to move in the tighter areas.
TREAD LIGHTLY, BI*CH! rofl
Love to help with pictures, but left my camera at home this time. If I'm taking pictures, I'm not having fun behind the wheel (Lord, give me a girlfriend who will come along and take pictures from the passenger seat). There were plenty of cameras floating around, though. I'm sure a pile will...
Schitt, Scott. maybe we will be the only ones there again. You, me, No.2Diesel and his bro', now all we gotta do is shake Opie out from his tree and we'll be all set!
David, tell your sons not to worry - there will be a dozen or so mechanics in our contingent, who just so happen to have experience working on military vehicles. If it's having power issues, we can figure out why!
The t-shirts are ordered and paid for, and currently being printed. If you want a t-shirt for the rally, cost is $15 each made in USA, we have Large, XLarge, XXLarge and 3X-Fat. :) Let me know how many you need in a PM and I will mark them for you, and bring to the rally.
I just hope it's not the moon base. I plan on taking a pavilion, if someone has some camo netting or something similar that can be set up as a cover to our camp, that would be great.
RE: Time does fly by . . .
I will go ahead and start PMing those who signed up, who would be along the southern convoy route, to make arrangements for meeting times and places.
Also, I think it would behoove us for our fearless leader (read: No.2Diesel) to talk the the RC owners, see if we can...
RE: RC
I asked dm22630 if he wants to go up there, he said yes but it all depends on whether or not he has to work that weekend. He won't know until the Wednesday before. He's in the foreclosure business, and right now business is real good around here, gotta take the money while its there...
Okay, I got the go-ahead to do t-shirts for the rally. Here's the design that was approved. We're going to order about 35 or so of the shirts, that should be plenty for this rally.
The text bubbles say:
"WHO'S THAT?!?"
"Connie Rodd. She just loves driving a deuce!"
Connie: "That's one...
Just had an idea: Dave, remember that camping spot that we had last year? If we can squeeze everyone in there, and it's available, I say we drop trailers and rope off the entire spot with our troop seats (like fencing) around the general area while we are out on the trail. If anyone has a...
Man that would be cool if AM30Y+'s kids can go. It's less than an hour from your place, Colonel, be a shame for them to miss it!
No.2Diesel, edit mine to include a M332 trailer that I will use as the draggin' wagon with all the junk in it. Thanks.
