Seriously suffering from SBBSAS, (Stovebolt Brothers Separation Anxiety Syndrome).
If anything changes, or if I can break away one evening, I'll be there.

Trailer rented, last minute work on truck, prepping to buy beer which I willingly donate for lunch and the cause. Anyone else going up on Saturday? My plan is to leave home around 0600 and arrive nlt 0900 since I know a few might need their beauty sleep.
Need me to bring any food?

ROACHE ... darn it all, man ... if Dempsey is going to Winchester, then he'd best be here Wednesday afternoon, NLT 1800. Am I making myself perfectly clear on this? Now hop to and make it so. Right! Carry on, then.

I'll be headed out Friday morning about 8:00. Probably take Rt 42 all the way to Rt 11 at Woodstock.
Might make a quick stop at Frankie's on the way.

Depending on set-up time, I might be able to come up to the ODSS compound Friday evening for some comradeship.
I doubt if you all can make it, but my son Jack will be playing with his bluegrass band at a car show in Winchester on Saturday. I'm not sure when the car show starts, but the band, Marv Ashby and High Octane start at 2 pm. It is at Solenbergers True Value Hardware. Too bad it's during ShowTime at the Tri-State, because the ODSS boys could blow some minds rolling in there. I won't be able attend either.

Have him stop in after his gig and he can play a tune or so for us??? Hell, bring the whole band and we will make a "partay" out of it. Like we need another reason!

Checking logistics, the convoy is less than 10 miles away.
All in favor?

I know there is talk of a 30 mile antique truck cruise thru the country side and I also may have parking duty so pencil me in with a light pencil for going to see Jack's band. Would love to but not sure if it will work out with all the other goings on.

Currently it's about 55 degrees and foggy but looks to be a beautiful day. Time for some bacon and eggs, coffee and then get the truck cleaned up. Looking forward to seeing who pulls in next and for everyone's arrival.
The Shifflets dropped off a bunch of firewood but it will need to be hit with a maul. They will have one but if someone coming has one and doesn't mind bringing it, that would be good.
See y'all soon,

Speaking of, if there's anything else I need to bring from HQ, let me know before 0600 tomorrow... Anyone want to use the engine caddy? So far: Brake Bleeder (chris ... and thanks for any beer in advance!) Cooler for Joe The Friendship Forest CFH (Cooler From Heck) The Stovebolt EZUp a table Veggies (to include several seedless watermelons) Bean fixins and the crock pot What else? Big day on the farm here and then I can play all weekend CU Soon!

I'm hoping to come to camp tomorrow afternoon, after setting up for the trade show. Have a safe trip brothers.

It's probably time to do up another order of generic shirts anyway. We found a place on-line that is pretty easy and pretty cheap. I'll see what I can do/find while John's away. Otherwise, we have to wait for him to come back.
I know Hambone wants a Social Networking one and there have been requests for pockets.
These were under $10 so it's a lot better than the CafePress t's.

On top of that, quite a few bolts of all sizes. Tomorrow looks to be even better! The weather is supposed to be a little cooler which will be nice, got a little toasty today and lots of shade being sought after.
I think we have plenty of firewood so save yourself the hassle of loading it up. I doubt we can possibly burn everything we have now!
A bunch of stove bolters just headed out for a little cruise and to fuel up for the truck cruise tomorrow. Suppose to be a 30 mile loop for any truck in the show that wants to partake. Ought to be a pretty neat site.
