Crumpy and I will be coming in on Thursday with Itsky and his wife.
We will be Zip lining with the Erzers on Friday at Pigeon River. If we survive that then Saturday and Sunday we will be running with you guys.

We just cannot decide what routes to take????????????

Can't hardly wait to get there andsee everyone again..

Let me know if your interested or any other ideas/suggestions. Time is getting near.

I think Puff the Magic Dragon is scarier looking, if you can find one without chicken feet count me in. I would even help you front the deposit (say 50$) so you can have more then "one per car" in case passengers (I am dragging 2 myself) want to nab them too. I could also live with a smaller option with bigger font...

Just my .02

You tell him I need a retune and TCU code.

It's been almost 2 years since we tuned it with a blown intake gasket (damn C3P)

Attached is the route I will be making on Saturday. About 5½ hours driving time. Nice & Easy. Since no cook-out this year, we may be getting at Deals Gap for perfect timing for dinner. If not, the grille at the lodge is nice.

The attachment can be printed on landscape 8½x11 if needed.

After you have got in the first round of drinks everything will be forgiven.

I too have been messing around with a sticker. Can get these 3 x 4 stickers in color for 50 Cents each. My cost on them, I work with a Trade Printing Company. Any thoughts.

Is that 70 cars?

That's a lot of participation.

Can folks now stop saying things like "Org" is waning?"
