Attack on Attica!!!

[BigDave]

Here's the scoop guys, the motherboard in my computer at home fried a week ago. I am in the process of getting another one, so I can't get online at home. If you have any last minute questions for me about the run or anything else, check the webpage or give me a call at 309-837-9033. I will do my best to help you out and get the information that you are needing. Remember, the cost for the park is $15.00 for one day or $20.00 for the weekend, plus $5.00 for the flag and I think $5.00 for each passenger in the vehicle.

Just to remind ya... See you all on Saturday morning.

Dave

P.S. Andre...look me up in the Ramada, I am going to try and make my reservations tonight, if not then tomorrow.

 

[Kampy]

Hello...

I will be making my reservations at the Ramada in Lafayette today and yes I do have a CB radio in my truck, but I don't know how well the microphone is working. So I may be making a trip to radio shack sometime on Saturday evening.

If anyone wants to double up and split a room let me know by 4pm today, by posting on the board and I can make those reservations and save us some money. Two things you should know first though: 1) I have a yellow lab that will be coming with, and 2)I snore, loudly from what I have been told. If you can stand those two things then by all means lets save some money if we can.

One more thing, anyone know how to rip off the cat heat shield and will this affect anything else on the underside of my truck while we are wheelin'? As far as I know it shouldn't, but it never hurts to ask.

I get my new mother board today...I can't wait.

Is it just me or does it seem that every time I want to go off roading it rains? I wish I had a second set of tires just for mud. I hate getting stuck.

Oh well.

I started a new thread for post-Attica (Badlands) discussion. Let me know how you like that title.

Thanks again for coming, I had a blast and it appeared that everyone else did as well.

closing arguments

Just to make sure, are we doing one next year? Is it gonna be a yearly event or perhaps we can do it more often?? How about it guys??? Anybody ready for Attica Sometime in August? September? Perhaps Labor Day weekend???? September 2,3,4th? Let me know. I'm ready!

[BigDave]

I'm game to go again in a couple of months. I have a buddy of mine with an '84 Toyota pickup that has seen my pictures that wants to go as well. If anyone else is interested and has any questions feel free to email me.

Dave

P.S. The writeup was sent to Rick yesterday. Hopefully he'll get a chance to get it up soon.

 

[Dre]

pictures?

I have asked you guys before but want to repeat my question. I'm rewriting my page with pictures from Attica. I'm just turning it into a long story and was just wondering if I can use your pictures in it. Let me know.

So, Labor Day run sounds good?

Later,

 

[Cameron]

Sure, just copy them from my Attica page.

 

[BigDave]

Feel free to use any pictures that you want Andre. I am not going to be able to return to Attica until late September or Early October. I am goingto probably be helping my mom move to a new house and won't be able to do much of anything on the weekends for a while.

Dave

 

[riffman]

IM game anytime....sooner or later. Just let me know!!!

 

[BigDave]

Riff,

Are you gonna post your pictures from the first run? I never saw them at all. If you have them on a page somewhere, email me the site or post it, i would like to see what shots you got.

Dave

 

[riffman]
