my "plan" is to run the 40 on Friday and likely Saturday, and then the wagon on Sunday....that may change depending on weather tho....didn't pack the windshield for the 40
May also depend on who's there and when...if the group is "lighter" on Friday, that may be a wagon day...
"plannin" slider installation on the wagon on Fri morning, and headlamp installation on the 40 on Fri evening...
woody are you bringing the pit bulls or the irocks. Ive never seen pit bulls first hand

I'm going to be at the campgrounds Friday morning to set up the base camp and get some wheeling in. Travis is bringing some homebrewed beer and we both are bringing margarita supplies.

At Slade RJ talked about bringing some sort of homebrewed Kentucky distilled spirits 
Is he coming up on Saturday Jimmy? Haven't heard anything from those guys.

I am glad to hear that summers has no policy against beer. I was a bit worried when I heard the one of the campgrounds was dry.
I am hoping to arrive on Fri evening. I am not sure exactly what time, but man my mouth is now watering for the prime rib.
Goebeler what route are you taking to get there? I will be coming from WI and I'll keep an eye out for you on the side of the road.

I'll be there about 9:00 Saturday morning. I'm bringing one of my employees because he wants to buy an FJ Cruiser. Neither of us will have an offroadable vehicle, so we'll both be looking for rides. It'll be nice to put faces with the names finally. Although I've heard some of the faces aren't pretty.

Travis,
RJ has employment obligations that he could not get out of.
Johnny and Pete are coming up however.

The rv is running but the thing only shows a little above 9 amps while running. Not sure what the deal is, hopefully it will make it. I am going to leave mid afternoon friday and head down the tollway til' some highway like 305 or 350? Checking into the route now. Woody took me home a few times this way but I don't know the roads. I'll post up once I know but all kidding aside, look out for me, I am not as mechanical as most of you so if the rv dies....I might have to burn it to the ground!

Todd, What is the route that we take? It is a route that dumps you on 41 south way into Indiana... Litttle help to the guy living out of a box!

Found the route, taking 94 south to 394 south to 17 or 2 east and heading south on rt 41 into attica... plus or minus a few turns here and there!

I take 80e to 394s to stager east. steger "t"s, take a left and next right. continue down that road to patterson (i think, its another "t") go right to 93rd st, left on 93rd, very quick right on 41..... sorry I know those directions suck. I think the 394 exit is closed so you could take 57 to steger.
"Im talkin outa my ass"
You could go safe and take 80e to 41s. let me know how you go and ill try to go that way. I will leave at the latest 5. My cell is 708 466 0394 John. Gumby will be leaving around the same, we may run into each other.
Hey Gumby Im meeting Jenn for lunch tomarrow, ill swing by and give you a disc of pics and vids, what is your schedule like?
