I will try Jim, but that is a bit far for me to travel on 2 days with JL to get her back to school for Monday.

got the internet back today...actually about 2 hrs ago. ppl who were here in may know why...
details...
i will again supply all food and beverages and just ask for "donations" to fray the costs. this worked out well last time. we actually had a really accurate ppl count. currently i have no mods i will be doing, so the garage will be open. i know its a little off, so i will post about attendance and etc later. if anyone needs directions those will come later too. i have plenty of room for travel trailers, tents(might be chilly mike), and trucks. there is a porta-potty, but no shower facilities at the garage. i work till bout 300 and can be home by 330 on friday. so if planning to attend, please keep that in mind. most ppl showed up after 7pm friday last time anyway. we can do hamburgers and hot dogs again, or if ppl want ill get some steaks for sat nite and we can have that. again....make your calendar and more info is to follow...

one of the best parts of these gtgs is to meet other members and learn a great amount of knowledge. also for anyone who hasnt met the great guys from NEST or the awesome Clay(he will be flying from Oregon to PA) its a great time. i think we worked more than even hung out.

there is a "cheap" hotel that Jim, Greg, and some others stayed at...im sure for info to follow on that. there is also a few campgrounds near-ideal park, J and Ds and another i forget the name. ill post a list of attenders, mods, how many, etc at a later date. we had a blast last time....plan to attend.

any specific questions - pm me...or post here. we had a variety of ppl here and many can answer questions just as well as me.

Awwwww man!!!!!!!!!!! Yer killing me. I already had 3 things to choose from for that weekend... Rockcrawling at URE (NC), PHP race/dyno event and a Sky Ski gtg - all (3) are much closer than Catawissa (unless I get sentenced to work in NE again!!).

I had a BLAST in the fall and highly recommend this event to anyone close enough to pull it off. Brownie is an excellent host and has a great place to share with us for a GTG. I thought we got alot of projects done last time as well!!

Its been over 100* for 30-something days in a row here in OK - I can't wait for some of that brisk Fall weather myself! If it is cool out, I recommend an electric blanket for anyone planning to camp.

Hopefully, I'll be able to attend. I might just be coming to assist and learn as the bank account has some other plans right now.

in the spring...some people slept in tents, and campers but others stayed in a local hotel about 20 mins away and i think (Jim can correct me) but it was like 60 bucks a nite. my zip is 17820...maybe a hotel would be a better option for you. looking forward to meeting you guys...pm me if you have any questions or needs...
