Rick is trying to rattle my chain... I really can't tell by the tone if you are attempting to rattle it a little more, or is this is a legitimate question so I am answering cautiously as being legitimate.....
NO... I do not want anywhere near that fence. Yes I am shooting for where I last moved to. It's nice and quiet over there... no walnuts, or other nuts.
Who me? Never!

Looks pretty good to me!

Sounds like good weather to me! I just need to find a few tent stakes and I'll be ready. Got the 5 ton cargo cover kit for Bthrasher, food, drink, five GMRS radios for the trail rides, batteries, clothes, meds, sleeping bag, camera, pictures, flash drive with the MVPA pics. Will pick up 10 gallons of ethanol free gas for use on the trails tomorrow.
Be prepared for rain....Some of the computer models and forecasters think this Tropical Storm has a good chance of taking the same track that Camille did in '69. For those that come up 29, that rock face that you see in Lovingston, showed up during Camille. All of the bridges on 29 have been replaced to those standards, so that should not be a worry. RainX those windows. Who needs wipers on a flat windshield with RainX anyway.
On standby status.

My truck is the broken down truck in picture number 8. The transmision cooler line has come loose and leaked transmition fluid all over the place. A quick tightening of the fitting to fix the leak and refill of fluid and I was back in business. I have made it home no problems![[thumbzup]](https://www.steelsoldiers.com/images/smilies/icon_smile_thumzup.gif "Thumbs Up [thumbzup]"){kind=icon}

And a good time was had by all!
That Halftrack stole the show! The boys, and men, got a real kick out of it. Cab's BBQ was awesome and we all had a really good time. Me and the boy will be making this an annual pilgrimage!

Joe,
Now you know why my registration is usually first to be received! The BBQ is worth the 900 mile round trip (for me) and the MV's and rock crawling jeeps are icing on the cake!

I had a blast. THe Half track was the star of the rally, and I really enjoyed the ride I got in her. I also enjoyed the ride in the back of the M37 up and over the mountain.
My wife and I are still at Graves Mtn. We went up on Skyline drive yesterday, and went over to James Madison's plantation today. Wonderful place, with quite a view of the blue ridge.
Graves Mtn is also very nice. Great place to relax, and get away from it all.
