Was the Trieste on display? Its in the building behind a big wall.

Hey, if you're online now, give me a holler soon. Once I leave for home and get entrained in the rush hour traffic, its a pain to turn around.

Hello folks,

Chris is right ... we are gonna need everyone to bring something so that we don't have to start pickin off the neighbors farm animals .

I will be putting together a rather large outdoor grill/firepit (got a cool design from Germany) and seats for us to hang out around so if you have something that you want to toss on the grill, bring it. Side dishes, deserts and drinks will also be needed.

Mike ... do you have a welder or access to one ?? I need to fab the grill for this monster.

I haven't forgot about getting lodging info for those of you that need it ... I should be home in a couple days and will send it as I get it.

On another note .... if anyone is going to Ozark Diesel Performance dyno day, let me know. Maybe we can meet up and do a little chapter recruiting .


" Ozark Diesel Performance and Gerald Auto Center would like to invite you to our first Dyno Day in Gerald, MO on April 14th, 2007."

ADDRESS TO SHOP: Next to woody bogler trucking
Ozark Diesel Performance
580 E fitzgerald Ave
Gerald, MO


Cheers,
PISTOL

Do I have a welder? What kind would you like? Wire or stick. I've got both. We can throw it together at the house if you want unless it's too big. I'll probably bring some kind of meat and a bunch of sweetcorn ears along with a stick of jalapeno pepper and cheese venison summer sausage for snacking on. And If no-one is bringing some Red Diamond SWEET tea I'll pack a few gallons of that as well.

I want to come, the wifey and I were talking about it last night, but well... I sort of had an incident.



I'm getting stuff ordered to get her put back together, if I can get her up and running in time, I'll come.

Ooooow !!! What kind of cylinder damage did that leave ? Hope it goes back together relatively painlessly. Even if you don't get 'er fixed in time you and the wife should still come on out for some chow and let us razz ya !!

Mike ... the stick welder is plenty fancy for this project. Nothing too big, I just want to put together approx 3 x 3 foot of grill surface. Thanks for the hook up ... I'll ring ya when I get home.

That pretty much sums it up. Its been a fun few weeks for Ol' Smokey, but she'll be back better than ever. I could see the razzing I'll get driving down in my Honda to a Cummins Convention

I've been thinking about bringing some fish out of my pond to go with the BBQ just in case someone wants something different. Or I can just cook up some shortribs or a brisket from the local packing plant and warm them on the grill when I get there. Depends on what the general consenus is.

How about some deer meat, and some drinks, not the adult kind, and chips and paper plates and plastic cups
