Triad Monthly meet. Feb 7th @ BJ's Brewhouse

They were just swooning over all of the masculinity down at our end of the tables.....

Huge thanks to all those that made it and for those that drove so far. Quinton, Marion and Blake from Pinehurst as well as the John V and Eric Forrest from Charlotte. Gotta say that was the best deep dish pizza I've ever had. Was also nice that we had several newer guys and gals join us as well. The only downfall was I didn't get to talk to everyone as much as I would have hoped. Hope everyone enjoyed it and looking forward to next month already.

I will say that when I talked to the manager yesterday morning I was told there would be two servers, one for each table section we had. Obviously that didn't happen but all in all I think she did a pretty good job with such a large group and full menu.

I agree with Rice, the company was terrific but the service was so-so. I believe our server did a good job with the amount of people who were there, however, IMHO, the fault lies with the management for not providing adequate servers for that large of a group.

Otherwise, I enjoyed the fellowship with fellow LC owners, I enjoyed seeing all the various trucks and especially enjoyed seeing all the new people who showed up. Good people, good friends and LC's, what a terrific combination!

Thanks Eric, looking forward to see what you can come up with for March.

EDIT The evening was perfect except for when I was close to home. A mini van took exception to my LED headlights and tried to blind me with a flashlight and brake check me into an accident. I looked at the dash cam recording this morning and this driver was as erratic as I have ever seen. I ducked into Oak Hollow Mall and tried to wait him out but he was stopped at an intersection waiting for me. Crazy people!

Shoulda blasted them with the air horn, gave them the one finger salute and took off!

But yeah, sorry that happened - people are nuts.

I was trying to hold back and let him go on his merry way but he would not do that, preferred to stay just in front of me. Tried to avoid the conflict.

 

[Not A CJ]

We had a great time last night. We felt very accepted and look forward to getting some help from the "locals". I really enjoyed seeing what others have done with their rigs.

I was only flashing my lights at him in the Hanes Mall Parking lot to get him to turn his lights on, not turn em off

Hey ya'll sorry I didn't come like I said, I completely forgot about it. I have been banned from anything Involving our FJ40 until I finish my Eagle Scout project but that's almost over so hopefully the 40 will ride again soon!!! And I plan on making the meeting next time, what area will it be?
