So, you guys know me and improvising, so I got me some more Krylon gloss white paint and started playing. Will finish them up Saturday after shift and install.
I've also been sitting here printing off Bruce's directions and going ahead and putting them in the truck as well as Jeriann's "travel book" as she calls it. Getting pretty anxious at this point. We are scheduled to leave a week from tomorrow and will stay in Calvert City, KY for a night and then in Utica, IL for a night before arriving at Sherwood on the 4th.
IIRC, the Pot Luck dinner is the 7th?? All I can say is I'm glad I have a dually for all of the food and things my son and his friend have asked for
Roy, do you have your griddle with you? Was thinking about bringing mine, but mine doesn't fold so got to work that out if I do.
About how many people are we expecting? There will be four of us.
Not long now guys! Have a good night!
I'll wave as you go past me. I'm about 10 miles west of Champaign (I-57)

So, my bride, daughter, and mom all went strawberry picking today. Holy mother of god, they picked $50 dollars of strawberries. I didn't know that was possible. Anyways, I'm going to turn a good part of them into jam tomorrow and will have a jar for everyone attending the G2G. Hope you guys bring your sweet tooth...

I guess strawberries are cheap where you are. $50 wouldn't be all that hard to do up here.

Now I am really upset I am missing the G2G.

Very nice Rodney, Jen will love you!

I'm going to some meaty venison treats for y'all to take home, haven't gone through inventory yet to decide just what that is yet.

Actually, Bear is still sitting in the parking lot at the perfume factory waiting to take me home after work.
Safe travels! See you in a touch over a week.

I have to watch my P's and Q's around here tonight. Last year when I went to the XLR plant, Tom banned me the night before. I had to post vicariously through Andre by way of text.

Rod bows his head:
Oh dear heavenly lord, please keep your humble servant away from jackhammering threads on this fine evening.

There are things that it is perfectly acceptable to jackhammer. A thread isn't one.
