August GTG?

How about some ideas folks on the August GTG. I'll be in Colorado the first part of the month and want to get an early start on this.

Want to try someplace new?

Manhappiness maybe? Just trying to get more folks involved? Not that I don't like the folks that go most of the time. :-)

Want to do a Tuttle run? How about trying to get some folks from the Nebraska or MO chapter?

Could you put me on an email list when the gtg is set. I' like to attend but don't always think of checking this part of the FTE site. lappir1@yahoo.com

Thanks,

Potential future member.
Rod

Rod, by posting you can set it up so it notifies you when there is a new post on this thread. You have to do that yourself. I don't send many e-mails or make a lot of phone calls. This is a web based club. So the idea is to have folks post and read whats going on so everyone has access to the information.

Hope you are able to attend a gtg. There are lots of great folks in the KS chapter. If you do get it worked out where you get over this way, throw another peice of wood on the fire and set a spell and tell us a bit about yourself.

Well, Manhattan is closer to me than Wichita...

...and it seems I've been spending a lot of time in KS the last few weeks. I've only met one of y'all, and would like to meet more.

Whose bringing the beer?

Good morning all,

Took HappyJack's advice and put notification on this last night and it worked this morning. I got the notification of the post from the leader bringing the Missouri Beer.
Unfortunatly I still don't have my August schedule to know when I am off call on a weekend. You do have the GTG's on a Saturday or Sunday right??? Sunday's work best for me. Seems like Saturday mornings are full of doing things I'd do after work if work ended on time. This week it didn't

I have a 1999 F350 DRW that is a recent purchase. Last winter I traveled to South Florida and rented a room. This year I hope to take my room with me, along with a garage and my toys. Found this site and have been using some of the information on the 7.3 postings to increase the fuel effiency. Am up a couple mpg right now and am hoping for a little more. Changing out the differential fluid today and did the 6637 airfilter mod last week. Need a nice long run to check the milage again so hopefully I can attend the GTG. Well got to get to work. Hope everyone has a productive weekend

Rod

That's not what I said, and you know it.

The way I see it, as the Missouri Chapter leader may travel to the KS gtg, I'm thinking he'll need to sample some of that Kansas Budweiser...

Any ideas where in Mahattan to have this?

I missed a trip to KC a week ago. They have good beer at Arthur Bryant's BBQ. There is one at Legends next to the speedway.
