So are you guys gonna pack into the Celica like the clowns at the circus again. That was funny just by itself!

Since Aaron has Hunter's number, maybe they can reserve the back room.

I'll have Bryan's Excursion. We could likely fit 20 in there

What do you guys think about trying to pit together. I'm going to park sideways and try to save space for Keith S. and Chris S. We plan to put our pop ups together to get some shade.

Walter save me a spot and bring some fans, I've got the generator the club won't buy and we'll have some air moving it's going to be 100+ on Saturday. I've also got a tarp that we can use as a awning for the tents to keep the sun out of the tents early in the AM and late PM. We did this at CMP when it was high nineties and it was very comfortable(relativly).

If you have a generator, you'll get the first spot right next to me!!!! I do have several box fans I can bring. One of those big round shop fans would be nice. That person gets the 2nd spot on the other side of me!!!! :lol:

Some of old fat guys need to pace ourselves to make it two hot days in a row. I pretty much can gut out one day and recover the next. I'll need to chill out some the first day to be OK the second. I'm bringing a big cooler and lots to drink. The fans will be really nice under 4 or 5 pop ups.

Bernie, what time will you guys get there Friday?

Bernie Baake · **Posted:** Tue Aug 21, 2007 11:14 am

We can get up there just about anytime we feel like. You tell me when you plan to arrive and I'll be there.

pizza delivering Taurus

Hmmm... I apologize for committing a triple-thread-cross, but since my performance in ESP will be "NCAC Cup neutral", perhaps I should borrow my Dad's 95 Taurus GL for the weekend. I could lay the smack-down (is that how you children say it?) on Bernie and those torqueless wonder Proteges, and I'd have plenty of room to take folks to dinner in the evenings

Bernie,
If you save us a space, we'll have the trailer (the muses willing) and our popup as well. We can bring our popup wall panels for more shade as well as a fan (maybe even a second generator).

Bernie Baake · **Posted:** Wed Aug 22, 2007 9:04 am

Sounds like a plan Chuck the more the merrier. I believe that we're going to try to be there at around six. I'll put up cones to reserve as much space as I have cones for. Obviously the earlier you get there the better. I know Walter won't be able to make at six coming all the way from Greenville.

We're going to bring the big drum fan too, I think. Bernie's even talking about bring the swamp cooler, but even I think that's a little over the top!

Besides, they've reconsidered the forecast and now say it's cooking down all the way to a high of 98F. :oops:

(That's not embarassed, that's sun burn!)

We'll save your old @$$ a place too! :lol:

Let's see how many of the younger bucks want to come under our cool shade! All we need now are a couple of Hooter's girls to serve our drinks. :wink:

I don't think the swamp cooler is a bad idea. It is going to be hot and anything we can do to make it cooler will be good.

Bernie Baake · **Posted:** Wed Aug 22, 2007 1:38 pm

Walter the swamp cooler is freaking huge, takes four people to lift it into the truck, I'm going to pass on that one unless I get some help to lift it.

And your right, lets see how many of the youngsters crowd into the tents when the fans are running. I bet Graham will be there.

Guys I appreciate the offer to save me a space in the Senior Section. But I won't be going. 100deg is past my limit of tolerance for any outdoor activities. I barely made it through 1 day at CMP in this heat. I only went because Mark offered to do the Instructor training with me.

I'm sure the young guys will be huddling in too just like they did at CMP... As I recall us seniors weren't taking our afternoon nap at CMP, just the younger guy :wink:

Good luck out there, go kick some butt!
