Indiana Gatherings for 2008

[Tripmaker]

Now the "pressure" is on.

I'll do everything I can including reassuring you that if you feel rain drops, they are really "liquid sunshine drops".

You're right though, we have been really fortunate to have good weather for our gatherings.

Maybe we can pull it off again.

I'll consult with the "weather Gods" this weekend and see if I can get a firm committment.

No worries Kurt. No matter what the weather does we will all have a great time.

I didn't read down far enough, I was looking at the picture of the bike, nice what year is it? I had an older Honda.

I was gonna offer you a tent to sleep in if nothing else. Glad your gonna make it.

Thanks Scott,
The bike is a 1985 CB450SC Honda Nighthawk. Once it turns warm the truck usually sits in the garage until fall unless I go on an adventure somewhere. I thought I may generate a cloud of confusion when I posted.

Eh ! no worries your Georgie Bucks will show up soon. I already spent mine.

Hey Bob,
One of the kitchen managers at Salamonie Elementary said it depends on the last two digits of your ss#. If that's the case I won't get mine till June. I too have spent a portion of mine when I bought bunks for my "TOPSIDE INN".

I am also trying to get my grand Wagoneer back on the road after ignoring him for 2 years. New battery $85.00 New carburetor
$ 300.00. Get carb installed $300.00 ( found several other problems that needed addressed) Back to the shop gas mileage was 6 MPG. Died on the way had to tow it in. Main fusible link fried to exhaust manifold $60.00. Had rear brakes checked while there leaking wheel cylinders causing grabbing replaced rear wheel cylinders and new shoes while there $ 118.00. There's about $1000.00 and I still have to put the jeep in the shop for an exhaust system tomorrow.

Scott,

A fellow I know over in Greencastle says he's going to come to the get together.
Not sure if he has a spot reserved yet, but he'll be bringing a trailer.
He's not internet savvy... so...we'll find out when we get there...

Tomorrow we start the count down 10,9,8,.....

We have got 11 more days as of today

[bobhenry]

Cooler near the lakes claimed 30 trailers we GOTTA find 2 more for 31.

Got the exhaust on the Grand Wagoneer Sat. AM and Vickie and I are counting the days.

I picked up a 6x11 pop up frame Saturday AM for FREE. Has jack and rear stabalizers. I was informed that this one was going to be jointly designed this time. Someone else is getting the bug. I am seriously thinking about a round front and rear with a domed roof. Yep a mini Airstream.

You never know there might be someone show up that we don't even know about.

Got my paint on, putting the doors back on tonight and painting them.
Of coarse my galley remains untouched That's the project for between May and August, some real cabinets.
