Doesn't look like Suzi can be home before 3 this afternoon, so I'd say the earliest we will be there is 3AM. :cookoo


Sounds like my trip to Kentucky...midnight quickly became 4:00 AM due to highway construction and detours. The weather is nice, 63 according to my car an hour or so ago when we made a store run. Breezy and overcast, sun poking through on occaision.

Cabin is super small, but not bad. The beds, well, they are beds, I'm doubting Goldie would find a comfortable one, but at this point, no bears either! :)

See ya all soon, heading up to Darrin's to meet up with him.

Well, have a fun time without me (you jerks:D). Post up some photos and eat a smore or three for me. Be careful on your trips to and from. Hopefully, no one will have any problems. I'm on call for me, my partner (he's out of town), and for "no doc" patients this weekend. I'm pretty much stuck here for a while.

Great turnout! I think there are currently 13 families here! Mel was due in around 3:00 AM this morning and Travis is coming later this morning as well.

Had a great fireside gathering last night at Darrin's site, everyone got settled in, lights strung, and enjoyed a great night.

Almost didnt make it outta the campground! Stupid hills and dirt roads!
Got home about 5:30, ran outta fuel in the big tank on I-94 almost to Annarbor after passin a line of semi's, got it pulled onto the shoulder and restarted on the diesel tank. When I looked at the odometer...340 miles ***? That averages out to 8.5 mpg! I guess pulling a camper 75mph @ 2500rpm uses a ton of fuel LOL
Great to see everyone again, hopfully we'll see you all after the holidays.

Good to hear you made it home Chris, any drive line vibrations?

We all had great time! Me, Lori, Taylor, Alex, and Diesel (he is beat!), Thanks to all who made it, what a great bunch of folks! I will be posting pics tomorrow.
The weather held out very nicely, minor rain and just cool enough to enjoy a fire all day, we burned a bunch of wood! Lots of good eats Including some award winning chili. ;Sweet

Hope to hear from Mel and family about midnight tonight.

Made it home myself just a little bit ago...

Popped a flexi-brake line on the car on the way home - stopped in Fort Wayne and got her squared away...

Any one seen my Kodak Camera? Last I remember having it under Chris's truck doing the driveshaft deal.... Gray/silver... tons of scratches... pictures of me in a speedo on the memory card if you can find it....


Chris... You know that LED lantern you were looking for.... yep we got it - sherm said he found this morning down by the water so he picked it up.... PM me yer address and I'll strap it to a pack mule and head him yer way....
