Sometime ago as the Stovebolt grew the powers that be divided up the area's which had never been done, at least to my knowledge or memory.
Back in the day I considered the Southern bolters as N.C. S.C. GA. and Tn.

Now, if you look at the top of the Southern Stovebolt page you will see that when divided up the Southern bolters became:
N.C. S.C. Tn. Va. Part of Wv. Ga. Al. along with parts of Florida and Ms.

I say this as some bolters that join in may not realize the size of the area we cover....and that is for the other regions as well. Sort of gives us a place to hang our hats and see who is next door!

Thanks or listening.

I consider myself and Vicki as a embassdors from the HeartLand Bolter’s, assigned to the Southerern Bolter’s, to make sure we have good relations between the two Stovebolt empires!

Don, your like Santa Claus, your everywhere.

I just wanted folks to know where they belong. Back when David and I decided to have a Southern "reunion" several years ago we had 15 bolters show up. The last one we had here at my house we had 52 show up.....now with the "bigger" area we should be able to have over a 100. Can you just imagine that, a hundred Bolters in one place. Whew!!

If you guys can get enough interest in an Alaskan reunion, let me know and I'll work on getting a venue. thumbs_up
I'd host one but my driveway is barely big enough for the stuff that I have in it now. frown

We'd probably have to FLY....my 37 doesn't have a heater!!!!!!


.....back a few years ago, and a lot younger, Denny G., Pete52 and myself threw around the idea of doing to Al CAn highway to Alaska. Now it looks like I'm the only one left...at the moment. How close are you to the airport smile

The Anchorage airport is only about 20 miles away.

But you wouldn't necessarily need a heater. We drove thru Interior Alaska and Canada on the way to visit our daughter in Juneau, and were wishing the F250 had AC. The Fairbanks area can get to the 90's in the summer. We've been up to 80 here, but that doesn't happen much.
