Now back on subject. What tools does everyone plan on bringing? i learned last time that and Impact and cutoff wheel come in handy. Took 2 hours taking a hack saw to a 8.8 grade bolt!
I'll probably have a full set of racheting wrenches, a cordless impact, socket wrench with sockets, jack with wood block (if I haven't purchased a High Lift yet). Oh and a cutoff wheel just in case.

I usually bring almost the same but may leave it at staceys for the trail to reduce my weight although, I did shoe creek a month ago and with my truck loaded with me wife son and all our camping gear and only scraped a time or two...
I also bring some of every fluid possibly needed... Gallons of water+antifreeze etc etc..
good thing I had that hand saw LOL
HHR fan did great minus my crap fan controller running it... Really need to get this flexalite soft start installed, also my battery is dying on me.. XEEK!

Ill have all my tools,including air and electric.i have plenty of air and AC invertor on board so we can use air and electric on trail.ill prob throw my small welder in the back on xeeks truck if he has room.also i bring a ton of spare parts
got your pm.i looked for it yesterday but couldn't find it and had to get to my second job.must have thrown it in the attic.ill climb up there today and get you some pics and measurements.its the red 6gallon pancake 1hp-ish porter cable from home depot
i am just following up on a couple points for clarification.
Will and JD,
you had mentioned that you may arrive friday and do some trail maintenance. that might be good right now at least 3 of the existing hill climbs on the house property have some downed trees across them...nothing significant ....30 minutes and you can have all of them cleared. i am so busy with plumbing tiling and other indoor work that i never seem to get the time to do trail work. we probably will have a few more downed trees from Sandy and the wet snow she brought.
i have constructed another freshcut teardrop trail on the deer meadow tract you guys can cut a few sapplings and have even more trails. i have this new articulating gully climb/slide ("sissy holler")that i want to try and that might take a few minutes of sappling removal. i might even get another half day of bulldozer time in before you get here.
Will,
i understand that you are bringing the pork. i had told you that i would not have a refrigerator for the pork. Correction , i now will have a full size fridge, a dormer fridge, and a full size freezer. i also will have a full size electric stove and a gas grill for heating/cooking food. I will provide a few cases of beer and some miscl. munchies, paper plates etc. etc for friday and saturday nights. Hot showers are there but they are on back patio, i will put up some plastic sheeting for those who are on the modest side. lavatories (2-3)are on the inside now. let me know if i need to get anything else for your pork... do you want me to bring a crock pot.

Not that I see... The pork is in vacuum sealed bags, we can heat them however we want from boiling Water or even a microwave... Croc pot may be easier for grazing eaters...
does everyone want a va(tomato) sauce or nc(vinegar)?
