Thus, the challenge has been set. Guess I'd better learn more than my current catalog of 2.5 songs. :lol:

We'll need lots of it. Unfortunately, the playing gets worse the more I consume. Too bad it's not the reverse. I think the alcohol makes my fingers swell. They get too big to pick the individual strings or sumpin'.

Thanks for responding Dave. Wish I could find a date that was good for all. Not enough weekends in the summer or in the year for that matter. Have fun in Richmond.

Hi Guys. 39 days til “Fall Flash” (hope you don’t mind I saw that in last year’s Spring Splash post). A few have indicated wives are coming on Sept 8th – that’s great. If you haven’t said so, please let me know if you plan on bringing a guest. Also let me know the covered dish you plan on bringing (food, adult beverage, soda, adult beverage, chips, adult beverage etc) and please bring chairs.

Planning on having a farthest traveled award although I haven’t any idea what it will be..

I’m thinking about adding power steering/discs to mine. Interested in getting some direction from a couple of you I believe made the switch.

Looking forward to this.

Kevin:

Sent you a PM with a link to google maps to help you find my house. Earlier in this thread, I posted a link to a Holiday Inn Express if you need overnight accomodations.

Kevin:

Got your PM. Tried to respond but got hung up in the outbox- not sure why.

Below are links to a couple camp sites. If you travel route from NY takes you on the PA Turnpike to Route 222, both campgrounds are on your way in Lancaster County, east of me. Unfortunatly there arent any campgrounds near me. I have not stayed at the KOA but did camp at the Red Run Camp Ground although maybe 10 years ago. That one is pretty nice. Sunday morning we woke up to the sound of Amish horse and buggies heading to "Sunday Meeting" - interesting. Check out the info and if you need other choices, I'll be happy to dig in another direction.

Anything you want to know about a disc brake conversion you can ask me. Take all the pictures you want of my truck. :wink: I didn't do power steering, though.

I'm looking to replace my bench seat.
