Sorry to hear that. The weathers forcast is still good. I'm still going to try to get there at around noon. I'll have a little propane cooker and some hot dogs, chips, mustard and ketchup. A cooler of pop and a radio and a chair. Try to remind me to ask folks if they want to have a 50/50 pot. Seems a few folks won't get there till 2-3 in the afternoon. I think we'll see who shows up and vote on a place for the evening meal for those who want. I might bring some stuff to clean/wax my truck. I have a bad leg and won't be able to play tennis, B-ball, or volley ball. The park is nice so if you want to shoot some hoops or something please do so. Most likely I'll just kick back in the chair smoke cigars, drink soda pop, and listen to the radio and talk to folks.

 

Work? Yea Right!

Sorry to hear it, Our plan at this point is to drive up friday night so that Hannah can sleep and be pretty much oblivious to the long trip. Then drive back saturday night so she can sleep on the way home.

That sounds like a plan Joe I remember what it was like traveling with a little one. Will see ya up there.

Hey Jimbo I could put a couple words in with THE BOSS if you want me too.

I plan on leaving Wichita 8:00 AM Saturday morning. I'll have 2-3 open seats. I'll take 35 South then 412 through Tulsa to Siloam Springs. How many do we have for hot dogs at the park Saturday afternoon?

One other thing if your headed in from the west, the toll road just West of Siloam Springs is exact change only. $2.25 for cars I think but not sure. Make sure you have plenty of change.

 

The boss is a hard a**. You might come over sometime and help me pull that transfer outta my 250 or figure out which injector needs replacing in my 350.

That'd be cool.

jimbo

 

Oh yeah....That sounds like my kind of afternoon!!! Especially if you're going to wax my truck too.

I think we've got a couple of packs of dogs in the fridge, so I'll bring some stuff too.

Had a good time, met some more good folks. Lets do it again next year with more attendance.

 

All right I finally was able to get on the boards. Been doing puter stuff all morning! On both the desk top and lap top. Deleted temp internet files, spyware programs, virus scans, and unplugged and started back up router and everthing. Still can't get on with my desk top but my laptop is working well enough to post.

I really had a great time. Supper weather and great folks. Couldn't think of any other place I'd rather be.

Sponsers were Ken and Jason from FTE, my sister in law Laurie Drouhard at Coleman Company, my son Clint. Thanks guys.

Should have pictures up this afternoon. I have them loaded on my laptop. Now I have to edit them then put them up on my web site.

Thanks to all who took the time to come out. You are what makes FTE great. Never been anywhere that I have found a better group of people. Can't wait for the next one.
