Maybe we can go back up and just hit some more trails. i would love to start get on some more new trails. I like going to the west branch/rose city area because there is a ton of trails around there.

Just a suggestion .. but what about Atlanta ? Or is that a bit of a drive ? Just suggesting that due to the fact we might be the miles for clean up would be cool to know what we are getting into ............

I can probably swing it, no duty that weekend and the 11th is my birthday. I'm dying to try out the YJ. Going to hit the mounds on the 28th if I can.

Atalanta would be a great idea since we might get those miles.

Paul whats the odds of us getting those miles?

Chris you and Paul could come and wheel with us on Sunday.

I think all we have to do to get those miles is ask.  Mio should be in pretty good shape for someone else to take over next year, or for the Association to maintain if no one else steps up.  Plus it is 30 miles closer to the folks who help.

I haven't gotten tow bar brackets for my LJ yet, but I could get them ordered and installed in time I think.  That way we could pull the Jeep behind Chris's camper.  Or go back to Plan A - I'll take my camper up to TC, we just wouldn't have a generator, have to find a campground to plug in at.

Boy do we all beat around the bush. Some one just pick the day and place and people will show up. I am not 100% for that day so i won't choose.

Let me shift back to a maybe, just remembered, while talking to all of you on the chat, that my wife has surgery on the 6th, so I don't know if she'll be riding shotgun, and I probably shouldn't go without my honey on my bday.

Ok who is in for sure for this weekend. I am not 100% at this point. I may have to do a side job if everything works out for it.

Would just like to get a count on who is planning to go and when you plan on leaving.

Title: Re: Nov 10th
Post by: Paul Hittie on November 06, 2007, 06:17:53 PM
Is anyone staying Sunday?  Chris and I are going to be in TC, not sure if it is worth the trip over to Atlanta, drop the camper, play, then hitch 'er up again.  

Actually, I've been on those trails, I think the camper might make it through!

I'll talk to the wife about this as far as getting a hotel.  I don't know if she will go for it as were also going to that Rose City thing on Dec. 1st.  CHristmas is getting close, saving money.

ok i am 95% sure i am leaving Saturday morning. We will be staying the weekend up there. The Altalta motel is very close and the prices are 45-65 per night. I am going to check prices in onaway as well. Onaway is a little bigger place.

Alice said she is in if we are gonna be wheeling Sunday.

Guy did you make reservations yet at a hotel?

Sorry Neil, I said Saturday would be better if I leave after work at noon.  Sunday is not good unless I can get Lee to take the folks to church and cards.  Leaving on saturday probably wouldn't leave much wheeling time by the time I drove up.  I will have to think about it.
Title: Re: Nov 10th
Post by: JEEPSALESGUY on November 07, 2007, 08:14:23 PM
At this time, no reservations have been made but, we're still 100%! :D
BTW, we plan to leave 9ish to head up. You have my # Neil, call me when you're close!

So Chris and I are thinking "cool we can head to Atlanta after the tread lightly thing tomorrow 'cause we are already in TC"

Then Chris calls and finds out no one is going - WTF?  

We are roughing it here in TC (wifi is pretty slow here in the state park)!

Too funny.  Me, the kids, and the dog were all snoring by 9 last night.  :)
