My truck is ready to wheel again! Got the rear windows back on and everything else is fixed to one degree or another. Fluids all topped off, double checked my suspension and steering nuts and bolts, air pressure set for highway, just have to load it up and grab some supplies from the store. .

The weather forecast looks decent (not too cold and a chance of rain on Saturday). Hopefully the leaves will be presenting some glorious colors. I’m excited for Thursday! See y’all at the Cove.

One of my buddies can’t make it anymore. Send me a PM if someone needs a spot. Price is a case or 6 pack of some craft beer

This spot has been taken

Advice from a crotchety old man, you will not make friends with a generator, any generator. Buy a Jetboil or borrow mine to make your morning coffee.

And/or welcome to use my AeroPress ET. It approximates a decent espresso.

 

[Svensk120]

Or be a real man and drink a nice cup of tea

 

[76FJ40]

I also have some stove top espresso makers if that will work for you. Let me know.

 

[Jakes40]

Plenty of options out there. Leave the noise box at home!

 

[afgman786]

French press and all that other stuff we all use is stronger coffee than espresso anyways.
Really wake you up @ETCruiser you'll need it with the way we all like drinking

 

[Svensk120]

well I hope that someone will supply me with a beer or two for the drinking .... and I have a few cigars to enjoy during the evenings as well... I will leave the drunkenness to the rest of you!

 

[Arya Ebrahimi]

Much appreciated! What day are you going to be there?

We plan to be there Thursday afternoon and leave on Sunday.

It's a big black/ silver freightliner rv, hard to miss it.

@Stumpalama said that we are allowed to bring our own firewood to The Cove. Bring what you can!

Yup, decided to work out the French Press for a couple of days to get used to it...unfortunately I usually wake up at 5:30 or so, first 2 cups down by sunrise!

So...my wife will be prepping me a couple of pounds of batter for crab cake sliders...should have enough for 2 dozen or so 2 oz appetizer size...I'm heading up on Wednesday, but could hold until Thursday...maybe a treat in store for you crab cake lovers!

 

[TTViper]

A handful of us should be there Wednesday afternoon. Swing by the fire.

I won't be getting there until Friday midday at the earliest. I'll have a Mark & Jack plus 4 girls in tow. Don't know how much wheeling I will actually be doing.

With the amount of work you've put into that 40, I imagine you'll be on some blues

Don't even know if the 40 is going to be there--might need the passenger room in the 100.

Plus, I don't think I'll have the compressor and lines installed. Finding a good mounting spot is proving difficult and I'm about out of time.

On the firewall behind the glove box is where I have mounted a couple of the mini compressors. Not sure there is room for a big one.
