MN Spring GTG-May 8th!!

Well as some of you know I have a new BTS tranny ordered to go into my truck so I was thinking of having a GTG at my place here in Morris to do this and anything else anybody wants to do on there trucks. I have room enough for 5 trucks in my shop and hopefully the weather is nice so we can work outside if we need to. I am thinking of having it in early May. Right now I am leaning towards the weekend of May 1st. If this weekend doesn't work for someone throw out a suggestion and I'll see if we can make it work. I know this is one of the weekends that Mike(Ford79) was thinking of having the MN/WI GTG so if it lands on that weekend we could move it too I dont want it to conflict with his if I can. Anybody is welcome to come even if you dont want to work, just come and B.S. a little or hold down a lawn chair. Anybody who wants to make a 2 day or weekend out of it is more than welcome. There is a real nice campground on the edge of town that will be open or I have room for a couple campers at my place. So that is it in a nutshell guys let me know what you think!

May 1st might work for me but I might have a conflict. I might need to play this by ear. Don't base your decision on me though. Boy, that sounded a little egotistical didn't it?

Troy, I sure hope to make it whenever it is. Should be a good time. May 8th is graduation, I will not be graduating but will be there. May 1st might work for me. I'll have to see how hectic the end of the year is.

I will be in Thunder Bay Ont. on May 1st. The only open weekends I have in May are the 8th and the 15th. So it looks like I will miss the trans swap. To those of you who haven't ventured to Morris, watch out for the Dodge bucket truck, LOL.

Hey Cory, yeah anybody is more than welcome. I am over in Morris so that isn't to bad of a drive either. Does the 8th work any better for you? That is the other weekend we are talking about doing it.

I have to work that day as well. It should only take an hour or so to get there. I am off the 15th, 22nd and 29th, but don't change plans on acct of just me. I could come hang for a while on the 1st or 8th.

Well guys after much deliberation I have settled on May 8th for the GTG. The first weekend kinda got filled up for me due to relation coming up. I know this doesn't work for everybody so we will just have to have another one later on sometime for those who cant make this one! Hope to see a bunch of you here!!
