well, I told him I would get my best tent and the raised air matress from IL in a couple weeks when I go to visit........I do have an awesome supply of campout materials.....girl scouts and cub scouts kinda nets a huge surplus......LOL
May still have to if the rental thing don't work out. I know a couple others that are looking into it, so we shall see.
I'll see if I can get some firewood cut up if I go. I ain't flying out there(unless I have to) if I go I'd rather hitch a ride(more interesting).

The same offer goes here Jacob. Your parents are more than welcome to give me a call as well. Maybe my "mod" status will be of help convincing them to allow you to go.
I also offered the same for Nick. I met his Dad in Oregon. He is on vacation with his family that week but is going to try to fly down for the weekend.
I got two jobs that should make me enough money. I need parental permission FIRST before any real plans are made.
Nah. Plan stuff then tell em you HAVE to go cause you already made plans. That's what I'm gonna do.
I just need to figure out what nights I'm gonna be down there so I can get mom to make hotel reservations. I'd stay in Jim's cabin like he offered, but I now have to drag dad along. That'll be a drag.

Thats cool Jacob, wasn't being smart, hope you can make it, your a good fella. Justin, I can bring some firewood but isn't there a ban on transporting wood from each state, something with the Elmerald ash borer and bad insects???
Dude, that sounds like a hell of a dad to me. He may be more fun than you think. Besides, he can hang out with us older crowd.
Well I'd prefer to be there myself because he'll be falling asleep by 7:00. I'll probably just let him sleep in the truck til I'm ready to go back to the hotel.
He also has a REALLY bad sense of humor. So be prepared to have him making jokes that only he laughs at.
The biggest problem will be keeping within 10mph of the speed limit with a shiny new DP in the truck.
He has a 6.0 and an OBS 7.3, but he's not into the diesel performance scene. He's not into it, but he can't see a reason for doing something if it isn't 100% practical 100% of the time.
My understanding is that you are not allowed to bring firewood into Tennessee. The same is here in West Virginia. That is what killed out Chestnut trees and is now killing off a lot of the maples. Some damn bug from Japan and China I think. It is just like that Japanese Rose the state imported in the 60's to help with ground erosion near the highways. You just cannot kill the damn stuff once it gets rooted.

Your right Paul, we also have a problem with the elmerald ash borer, killing ash tree's bigtime. I'll just get some firewood down there. I hear the fines are steep and they hang you from the highest tree...
