What time does this thing start?

My brother is "pretty sure" he wants to come (I think he's not quite sure he wants to ride in my truck for 10 hours in a day). I'll be bringine a couple of dead oscilliscopes that he gave me whether he comes or not. They've got 4" screens and plenty of ***** & switches for precision shooting practice.

Well, any of us that were at the last shoot-out know that those ***** and switches don't have a chance.. We are some pretty good shots. Maybe this time we can stand back more than 12" though....

And I'm not holding the appliances up so you can see them while you're shooting this time!!!!

Any time you get there. Some of us may be there like 09:00 to get some heat fires started if need be.
Just show up when you get ready and have a blast.

Question Does Stamey know ????

From the last time:

For those of you who want to use a map, the address is:
1991 Judes Ferry Rd Powhatan, VA 23139-6204

Mapquest Link
The map shows that Judes Ferry doesn't go all the way to Rt 60. It does.


From the North
Take I-95 to I-295 North, near Richmond, Ride it to the end and pick up I-64 West. About 3 miles on I-64 you will hit I-288 South. Pay no attention to the "Local traffic only" sign, they haven't changed it since 288 opened.

From the West:
Take I-64 East, towards Richmond, until you reach I-288 South, about 11 miles out of Richmond. Pay no attention to the "Local traffic only" sign, they haven't changed it since 288 opened.

From the East:
Take I-64 West to I-288, about 11 miles West of Richmond.

From North, East and West:
Once you hit I-288, ride to the current end, which will be Route 60 (Midlothian turnpike). Take Rt 60 West. 7 miles out you will hit a traffic light at Judes Ferry Road. Turn Right.
My driveway is .9 or a mile on the left, under the large power lines. Yes, that's right, just under a mile off of Rt 60.

From the South:
Take I-95 North to Chippenham parkway. Take Chippenham parkway to Rt 60 West (Midlothian Turnpike). Take Rt 60 17 miles West, and you will hit a traffic light at Judes Ferry Road. Turn right. My driveway is .9 or a mile on the left, under the large power lines. Yes, that's right, just under a mile off of Rt 60.


I hope these are easy to understand. If not, please let me know.
I am looking forward to this.

Chris

Updated driving directions: Route 288 is now totally finished. Meaning that it no longer "ends" at route 60 (midlothian turnpike). Just keep your eyes out for RT.60 West.

So far ive got a cast aluminum grill and some nice thick pieces of 5x3x2 and 4"thick 4"round steel you guys can try to deform. May come up with some thick steel plates if i can find em. Mabye a 30lb propane tank if i can find a way to safely clear the gas . Mabye not.
