Perfect, thanks.
i will look for the beer and ice cream.
If i can't find that i'll just ask for the guys having the most fun.

Ok gents!

Lets get a list of who will be coming, so that we can start planning out the circus activities.

I have the following:

Pierce 1 and 2
Cosmo
Grigg
John Milliman
NapcoMan
Mike Roache
Nick C
Alec
Mike B
SWEET
Jim Brad
Joe C. (Saturday only)
Hambone

Who else??

I will be "dropping by" sometime...either Friday or Saturday (maybe both), but won't be able to stay overnight, due to prior commitments (bluegrass festival).

I would like to time it for Grigg's ice cream!

Victor

I'll have Accacia and likely the other Grigg along for Saturday afternoon.
I'll be gone Friday evening/night.

Grigg

Is the "other" Grigg older or younger? With all of that nesting going on.....

Sweet I plan to be coming through FB Friday whenever (as early or late) as needed based on your schedule.

Add Josh to the mix. He'll be hauling the "Lifeboat".

Napco Man is out; I'll be in Alabama. Have a great time Brothers!

I'll be coming on Saturday morning for the day. Hoping to meet everyone. Might also give me some incentive to finish my 57.

Frank

I will be there with wife(Anne) in tow. Arriving Fri evening, doing show Sat with plans to be by camp Sat evening for meet n greet( Fellowship) or happy hour depending how ur lookin at it.

Thats great to hear!! There seems to be a good number of us that will be there. A week away and there isn't much talking being done. Normally there would have been many more pages of discussion. I hope that the discussions pick up.

"Discussion" just to have discussion only confuses those looking for real details and happenings.
On the other hand a thread with useful info about the show and who is coming is what we have here, it's great.

About that ice cream Victor is looking forward to. Think it's worth doing a batch Friday mid day and Saturday afternoon or just one on Saturday? 8 qts at a time seems to feed 20-40 people depending on how much they like ice cream. Without a freezer we'll have to eat it all in a couple hours in any case.

Grigg

How much ice do ya need Grigg?

Usually about two 8 or 10 lb bags per batch.

We have to eat all the ice cream that is made. Darn.

I will do my part!!!!!

As will I!!!!

As of today, Peggy is coming! We will be bringing our Redneck RV ... We will be members of Hambone's Friday Flying Circus

Hey, we raise cage free,free range chickens here on the farm. If you like I can bring a few dozen eggs and make a donation for the camp breakfast.?

Duwop, will you be bringing your truck?

Looking forward to seeing everyone.

John

This is starting to look like it is time for some short term planning.
I am planning on bringing some libations from the Devils Backbone, any thing else needed?

I don't know what else goes on here, is there a swap meet? lotsa trucks to look at (I assume this part is a given) , Vendors?

thanks for any info.
see you on Friday!!

Alec

Alec

There is a small vendor section, bring some parts along, never know when you'll need trade bait.

Hambone, Grizz ... Radio check, over.

I'm coming, just don't know if it will be Thursday or Friday.

We have a new job at Bethesda Naval and the Gov't wants to have a kick-off meeting. It was scheduled for Tuesday, but it's been moved to Thursday...maybe they'll move it again to the following week!

Alec I'll be there to get the engine stand...

Mike B

John, The 3800 is apart this year hoping to complete before next year. It would be great if I could finish the 63 camper and 3800 this year. I have another truck but its not a bolt if you were thinking of me hauling something. We are planning on bringing the Jeep. Just rambling pain meds forgive me.

whats up??? I will be down thersday eveing and agine Saturday Saturday I will have the kids in tow so it wont be an allday thing for me im hopeing I can get the fireturck back togeather for this event if not ill be truckless

Sweet, thanks. I am still in the "accumulate" phase, not much to trade.
i will have a bunch of parts with me, but I'm just delivering them for Grigg.
-Alec

Actually for Duwop, John was going to stop and get them after KC but did a fly by instead.

Mike B, we are planning a convoy on Friday if you are coming this way.

Mike B -- Indeed. Hambone, Peggy and I are planning to depart HQ around 10 am (-ish ...)

Hillbilly! Good to know you are still among the living!

JM

Duwop, bring the eggs. My Buddy Josh volunteered to make breakfast in the morning for us. He makes some kick butt pepper jack eggs.

No problem, I will leave them with whomever is at Camp ODSS Fri. evening as I won't be camping this trip. About how many dozen, I'm thinking 4or5 at least?

That will work. I have a 35 foot Rockwood signature ultra lite travel trailer and 2011 Blue Chevrolet 4x4 dually somewhere near it. Friday, John will be there also somewhere. Thanks very much.

Duwop -- Camp Stovebolt is *usually* located just inside the South entrance to the fairgrounds (transporter parking) on the left just past the gate volunteers' tent and the portopotty.

ODSS members, Anyone wanting to visit Jerry McDonald's shop we shall travel o/a Saturday afternoon. Plan to meet up at Camp Stovebolt. Phil, will you be there by 14:00 hrs? 15:00 hrs? When? You want to go, right? Commo check, please. Thanks. V/R, Nick Cavallaro, Bel Air, Maryland

Yes sir I'm in! Nick, I should be there mid morning. I think a early afternoon trip to visit your suburban sounds great.

Phil, Roger. The list thus far making side trip Saturday 28 Sep o/a 14:00 hrs: Sweet, Alec, John, Phil, and myself. Of course, plans are fluid and can change, which means you could drop off with better time spent with people you may meet at the show or others can join the side trip at last minute. I don't care. Travel safe. I decided to trailer my 1948 Chevrolet 3100 Pick-Up with my 2000 Chevrolet 1 ton dually. Why? Safety and comfort, as I'm bringing 13yr and 12yr old sons and we are staying at Marriot Town Place Suites Winchester. V/R, Nick Cavallaro, Bel Air, Maryland

Nick, pencil me in also, may have one or two others in tow.

John, I'll assume Camp Stovebolt will be near same location as last year. We stopped by there after talking with MikeB last year. We will be by camp Fri.evening. Anne and I will be heading that way after she gets off work Fri.,Time at this point is unknown.

Duwop -- I'm assuming same. Unless the Acting Interim Camp Commandant Pro Tempore goes crazy Hose Beater on us and sets up somewhere else ...

Wow, didn't think about the crazy hose beater part when I appointed him. I hope it works out:( I did figure he would take over the Stovebolt Command Vehicles usual spot and then hog all the lectric! You go Mikey!

Sir, Roger on Mike, et. al., expressing interest on side trip to Jerry McDonald's shop to see '52 'Burb restoration (metalwork)at 90% completion rate. All welcome as this restorer is going to be at the show and plans to commiserate with me. Why? Project funds are on a 25% glidepath from what previously was budgeted during this time last year. At least I should be able to afford him through final body work, prep, primer, and final paint, which may take another 2 years, though. Expensive, but worth every bit, especially, once all tell me (hopefully) that my decision to go with this VA gentleman was a win win. Thanks Mike. V/R, Nick Cavallaro, Bel Air, MD
