Kansas rocks November 7th

[Turdle]

My wife will be shopping for the weekend so if'n ya'll wanna come over Friday Night, we could get to Ks rocks at a decent hour on the morning of the 7th.

Afterward we could either stop in Iola for dinner or have a cookout. I have some firewood for a back yard fire, and have been cleaning up the dog poo daily.

Bring and air mattress for first come first serve floor space. [MENTION=87244]gmanpaint[/MENTION] already called dibs on the big spare bed but I also have a spare twin bed, and a sofa.

Bring your refreshment of choice. Since the wife is away this will probably not be a "family" friendly event. Plan accordingly please.

If we run out of room here, I copied the list of area facilities.





The official campground for Kansas rocks Park is Lake Francis.

I guess they rent cabins and RV's

If you have a camper, there is a campground with electric and dump station 6 blocks from our house, in the city park. $5.00 per night for electric, but No tents allowed.

I am not sure if the cabin rental is for an overnight or day only use.

Or pitch tents on the front yard.

Yes!

Need to give some of the ks crew a call in case they don't see this. Jakebrake & I was thinking smorr that weekend, but i'm sure this will be easier for his crew to get too.

Been so long since I have been able to wheel with you guys, i'm glad your doing this!

If somebody wants to join us, but doesn't have a trail rig ATM, I have room for one passenger. Said passenger has to agree to being a co-pilot/spotter.

 

[jakebrake]

Works for me! Count me in I will be there Saturday for sure.

 

[crazyflights]

Saturday, no camping for me, maybe....

Depends how the wife feels, 2nd baby due on 28th

I have yet to make it there, I live off I-70 in Grain Valley, almost KC if anyone runs into problems Friday in Missouri.

 

[yellowford]

I should be in for wheeling on saturday, wont be able to stay much past 5 though.

 

[traveler]

I'll definitely make it Sat. have to see what kind of budget I have before I can commit to staying through to Sunday. Looking forward to meeting folks and putting faces to all the names!

I'm having surgery on Friday, so I won't be able to make it.

Thanks Jon. Getting a cochlear implant so I can actually hear instead of playing the guessing game. Been a little off my guesses lately! LOL!

I look forward to seeing this thread updated with awesome pics of everyone having a great time!

Well I'm getting a great bday present. My beautiful, wonderful, sweet wife said that since my bday is the 4th, she's donating to the funds necessary for the trip (LOL though she won't be going).

Now I just have to get the plans made... Make sure the truck is ready, etc.

 

[gmanpaint]

Count me in. I'll take Matt''s old room if it's available.

I need a head count of who will be at Jon's Friday night for dinner. I plan on bringing something special.

 

[gmanpaint]

We were just talking about what to do for dinner on Friday.

Benji & I will be there, but not until 6-7pm. We were thinking of going to Chanute for dinner but hey, if your cooking/bringing dinner, even better!

 

[Turdle]

I should be here.

Are we talking grillin' stuff?
