Well here it is already 2003 and January will be over before we know it so I think it's about time for a meeting. :)<br><br>It looks like it's going to be on the 8th or the 9th of February at either Greenwood, or Clarksville. <br><br>My question to you members is which place would work better for you to attend? Greenwood is just South of Indianapolis on I-65 and Clarksville is just North of Louisville KY on I-65. I can do either place Clarksville naturally being the easiest. At Greenwood, Justin informs me they have a nice Hooters with enough parking to let us park as a group. Plus you have the nice scenery of the Hooters to go along with the meal. ;D In Clarksville they have a real nice Logans Road House with plenty of parking and a small Hooters with a pretty small parking lot. (I think I can have them reserve us parking)<br><br>Or there is even a Ranch House closer to my house at Exit-119 on I-64. This is a 50's style restaurant with some awesome food. They hoast a car show every Sunday during the summer so I'm sure they wouldn't have any problems with us being there. :)<br><br>What I need to know is what will work best for everyone?<br><br>Let me know what you think and I'll do some more phone calling to get things finalized. 8) <br><br>Thanks<br>DB

There is also a Texas Road House just off of I65 at the Southport road exit (I think it is Exit # 105) it is just north of Greenwood, easy to find, the secenry just is not as good. I should be able to make either day but the 8th would be better.<br><br>Ryan

Anyone? Anyone? Anyone?<br><br>Man, everyone must be hibernating in this cold weather. :o [undecided]<br><br>DB

Sorry I must have missed this one! :-[<br><br>The Greenwood Hooters is very spacious. The view is not to bad either! ;)<br><br>I dont care what day. [undecided]<br><br><br><br>J.R.

Green wood works good for me too! Any time except the weekend of the 8th. Baby is due on the 6th so i am stuck home for a little while then. And i may not have the truck back on the road yet that early either. Just depends on how quickly the insurance is willing to fix it.<br>

ANY PLACE WILL WORK FOR US. THE 9TH WORKS BEST OR THE 8TH IN THE EVENING. I HAVE TO WORK SAT. MORNINGS AND DON'T GET BACK HOME UNTILL 2 OR 3 IN THE AFTERNOON. E.T./PATTI

Just let me know Darrell and I will bring my suprise


BTW Darrell we were north last big get together why not have it south this time?

How about my house? :o (oh I can't believe I said that) [laugh]<br><br>We can all meet at my house in the polebarn and if someone's got some new mods they want to install we can go about helping or just drinking and watching that poor sucker, I meen lucky individual. ;D <br><br>Then once everyone is done BSing we can go somewhere and eat.<br><br>What do ya think?<br><br>DB

Sounds like a plan just as long as I am not tied up with the new baby. Wife is scheduled for a C-section on the 6th. She said tonite she hopes she makes it that long. Due date is the 20th, but the doc wants an ultrasound because she think we may have 9 pounder already. :o<br><br>If we don't do it down south this time maybe the next one could be a joint meet with the KY boys?<br><br>

DARRELLS PLACE WORKS FOR ME. I REMEMBER OUR LAST GATHERING THERE. I JUST HOPE THE HEATER IS ON IN THE POOL. WHICH DAY PRES.? <br>E.T./PATTI

Hey Darrell tell the family to get there stuff out of MY bay in th garage. And no I can't believe you said that! Wait till I tell your mom what you have gone and done!LOL

Yea I know, ::) It looks like Sanford &amp; Son rent out my Polebarn right now. :(<br><br>My sister should be ready to put all that junk by then. (I hope)<br><br>OK guys I'm gonna say lets hold off till the 23rd of February. I'll have it at my place, that way we have a good warm garage to do any bombing or BSing that needs to be done. <br><br>By waiting till the 23rd this will give SolidJunkMM time to get Momma and the baby settled, the Farm Show will be over and I will have gotten all the the crap back in my sister's house. That's a little over a Month away, hopefully everyone can make plans to come, and maybe we can even get a few of the KY boys (I do meen boys ;) ) to show up. :) <br><br>If anyone has a problem with the date I don't care let me know. (oh you shouldn't have seen that) ;D<br><br>DB

Man I hat to say this, but I have to send the Mother-in-Law abck to AZ on the 23rd so I won't be able to make it that day either. Plan it for when ever is convenient for the rest of you guys and I will try to make the next one. :( :(

I still liked the 8/9th meeting date.<br><br><br>But you the man Darrell when you can do it would be OK with me

O.K.<br><br>Here's the date; February the 9th at 1:00pm at my place.<br><br>If you don't know the directions let me know and I'll get you some. I only live about 3 miles off I-64 West at the Lanesville Exit #113. <br><br>If you have any little Bombs bring them along and we'll see about helping install them. <br><br>See ya on the 9th.<br><br>DB

[quote author=SolidJunkMM link=<br> doc wants an ultrasound because she think we may have 9 pounder already. <br><br><br><br><br> What the heck you growing there an offensive tackle? :o [laugh]

I have an automatic shut down to install. It's been toooo cold to work outside, this would be a good time to do that. That is if my truck will fit in the shed. ;D ;D Those darn stacks are always in the way.

ET, If they won't fit I got a sawzall, we can just wack a foot or so off until they will go in the door. :D<br><br>DB

Don't worry Darrell I should have all my install done by the time I get to your house. ;D ;D ;D

Might have some KY boys driving up for this ;D

Darrel, <br>Sounds good!<br>I'll be there, Aaron says he'll make it too.<br>Just let me know what to bring!<br><br>--Justin

Darrel, I appreciat the offer to cut up your shed, but I couldn't have you do that. I'ts to nice to cut up. [laugh] [laugh]

Hey Top, My first boy was only 8 lbs 10 oz. Kinda on the small side for my family! :o ;D ;D <br><br>Thw wifey is not very happy with new right now.<br><br>Oh well It will be overy soon.<br><br>Sorry I can't make it. :'(

<br>Darrel, I appreciat the offer to cut up your shed, but I couldn't have you do that. I'ts to nice to cut up. [laugh] [laugh]<br><br><br>Auh, come on. I just bought this new Milwaukee sawzall and I'd really like to see what it does to exhaust tubing. ;D<br><br>DB

Darrell you will get some KY boys on the 9th at your meeting. Will you PM the directions to your house?<br>Should have about 4 of us coming up

I'll get you those directions as soon as I get a chance. :P I've been so dang busy here at work the last 2 weeks I've only had two lunch breaks. :( I like the OT money though. ;)<br><br>DB

TTT

Does anyone who is planning on attendending have the necessary tools to change a set of injectors if they should happen to be purchased in time?? ;D

Ryan,<br>I'll be happy to help you change a set of injectors.<br>I carry all the necessary tools in the truck.<br><br>--Justin

Where are those directions?? ;D ;D

If anyone wants to send me a P/M or post where you are coming from I will let you all know where to go, since Darrell has been so busy. <br><br>Also does anyone know/want to teach me how to set the valves on my 1st gen. <br> Bill<br>

I think everyone now has directions or knows the way from last time. But if you do need help Bill can also get you here. :)<br><br>Thanks Bill.<br><br>DB

Hey Darrell, did you have fun driving to work? Did you drive forward or sideways with all the wind? Bill

<br>Hey Darrell, did you have fun driving to work? Did you drive forward or sideways with all the wind? Bill<br><br><br>Kinda both at the sametime. :o I bet I used twice as much fule trying to power through that head wind on I-265. :( Saw a Furd Festiva and the poor guy had this look on his face that was priceless when a semi passed him doing about 65. [laugh]<br><br>DB

One last little item to get in order before this Sunday. What do you guys think about a Big Ol pot of chili and a pot of Vegitable soup? Mom said if you guys are coming she's got to fix something to eat. ::) Since it's going to be in the low 30's Sunday I figured some hot chili and vegie soup would be pretty good. :)<br><br>Does that sound alright to you guys? <br><br>DB

Sounds good to me. ;D You know me, since I am such a tiny little thing. I would hate not to have anything to eat and waste away [laugh]. Do you want me to bring anything to go along with it? Soda, crackers, plastic untensils, etc.? <br><br>Bill

Darrel, i remember your last &quot;little something to eat&quot;. It was great, is ther something we could bring? desert or something<br>let us know.<br>E.T./Patti

Let us now if you guys want us KY boys to bring anything up ::)

Hey Darrell Saturday I will make sure I have my ball in the hitch so I can relocate you sister out of my bay. <br><br><br><br>She can have it back when I leave!!!

If you want it bring it. 8)

Mom is cooking the chili and vegie soup I got crackers, bowls,(the kind you eat out of) spoons, softdrinks and beer. If there is anything else you guys would like to have bring it along, I'm sure it will get ate or in my case drank. ;)

Scott, you're more than welcome to try and move the trailer with that under powered truck of yours, but after you're done playing around I'll hook the real HP up and move it (the trailer and the truck) out of the way. [laugh]

One more thing, If anyone has a digital camera could you bring it so we can put some pics on here. Please

Sunday! Sunday! Sunday!

DB

And if your truck don't do it I know DADS Dually will LOL

I will be bring my digital camera

I was planning on bringing my camera with me as well as a collection of parts for us to play with if we get bored. ;D

I am bringing my digital camera as well. For anyone that dosen't have one, if you want any pictures made let me know. I have the type of camera that takes pictures right onto a floppy disk. I can give you the disk and you can take it to Wal-Mart and have pictures made. They have a new machine that will take them off the disk and print them any size you want onto regular picture paper on their 1 hour machine. The cost is real reasonable also. Bill

Can you post the directions on the site here? I had a couple people pm me about them. Just wanna be sure that they get there!

If they are coming from up North they can come down I-65, take the I-265 West exit. Continue on I-265 West till you gome to the I-64 West entrance ramp. If you are coming from &quot;the other side of the River&quot; take I-64 West out of Louisville. Take I-64 West and go about 13 miles till you see Exit 113. (Lanesville Exit) Take that Exit and when you come to the end of the ramp make a Left turn on Grandle Lanesville Rd. Continue on Grandle Lanesville road for 2.5miles, at 2.5 miles you will come to the top of a large hill where there is a 4way intersection, turn Right onto Ponderosa Rd. My house will be the 9th drive on the Left. It's a blacktop drive that splits at the bottom, you can go either direction, it goes all the way around the house. I will put a sign at the end of Ponderosa Rd to help everyone know were to turn. The best thing to remember is if you come to the T in Grandle Lanesville Rd. you went to far, turn around and come back up the hill and make a Left.<br><br>See everyone on Sunday<br><br>DB

Hey Darrell what do we need to bring up with us as far as food/drinks?

I am going to make some sort of desert. :o Would everyone rather have cheesecake or brownie's? Everybody chime in before Saturday afternoon, so I can get the stuff. Bill

<br>Hey Darrell what do we need to bring up with us as far as food/drinks?<br><br><br>You can bring what ever you want Ricky. I've got the soup and the chili covered, got the crackers, some cheese, and hotdogs, and some softdrinks. If there is anything the rest of you want go ahead and bring it along. 8) <br><br>You might want to dress warm also. looks like it's going to be cold. :( but the polebarn is heated so it'll will be nice and warm in there. :)<br><br>DB

I will be bring Jade with me, hope that is ok, it is mych easier getting out of the house when you bring your wife. But she is really gettin into this CTD thing ;D ;D

No problem with that. 8)<br><br>Just tell Jade to pay no mind to the posters and calander on the walls in the polebarn. :o [laugh]<br><br>See ya Sunday Ricky<br><br>DB

The event now has a name.<br><br><br>The Great Indiana Freeze Out<br><br>It's going to be in the low 30's Sunday and I've got about 5&quot; of snow on the ground right now. :'( :'( The good news is the driveway is clean along with the road. :)<br><br>See ya guys and gals on Sunday.<br><br>DB<br>

I'm bringing the work entertainment. I've got a collection of parts that need to find their way onto my truck sometime, so if we shouldn't get bored.

Not a problem Ryan. I've got this new Millwauki sawzall I've been wanting to use and............................. ;)<br><br>I've got room for 2 trucks to get under roof and it's heated to a commfy 60*. 8) I was hopping to have my Fuel Pressure gauge from Geno's but it's backordered so that's not going to happen. :( <br><br>DB

Hey Buddy you mean you have room for one truck cause I need my bay.<br><br>I see the sis got her stuff out!

<br>Not a problem Ryan. I've got this new Millwauki sawzall I've been wanting to use and............................. ;)<br><br><br>DB<br><br><br>None of my work requires the use of a sawzall!! ;D It is already straight piped and stacks won't fit through the garage door at home.

<br>Hey Buddy you mean you have room for one truck cause I need my bay.<br><br>I see the sis got her stuff out!<br><br><br>No it's still there but tomorrow it goes outside by the camper. :o<br><br>DB

Glad you all had a good time. ;D I think this was the best meeting yet. It's nice to belong to a club you don't have to travel 6 hours to make it to the meetings. ::)<br><br>I've just got to get more of these wussy local boys to get involved. :( You would think I'm asking for their first born or something when I ask them to sign up. [undecided]<br><br>I'm ready for the Hooters Meeting next. 8)<br><br>DB

Darrell,<br>Thanks for hosting the event!<br>Had a great time!<br><br>Hooters! Hooters! Hooters!<br><br>--Justin
