LazarSmith will have a semblance of a booth there with steering, suspension & engine parts, and some cool underhood lighting.

But if there is any room left on the floor....you can sleep in the Travel Trailer. At least it will be comfortably warm. The heater is capable of roasting us out of there!

I went to Walmart last night and bought some more HB paddies, HB Buns, Hotdogs, Chips, cheeze, ketchup, mayo, mustard, ice etc....so we should be in pretty good shape. Def. BYOB though.

Please don't forget to bring your own sleeping mats, bedding, pillows, and DRINKS!!!!!! and lawn chairs!

Oh...>just in case I forgot to tell you.....

Please don't forget to bring your own sleeping mats, bedding, pillows, and DRINKS!!!!!! and lawn chairs!

Should be a great time. Here is a pic of the travel trailer....so See ya there. c'mon by.

Being we're under a statewide burn ban you'll probably need to keep it contained.

If that's the case I'll have my truck parked under the roof and make sure someone else's truck is between me and the gravel.
