I heard Book of Mormon is hilarious. I also heard the tickets are buku hard to get.

we bought them in May. this was the earliest date we could get tix for. I took the day off so I can pack my truck in the morning before we go take the train in.

Nice. I'm assuming you're going to see it here in NYC??

So what time are you heading to Rausch then? I'm trying to figure out when I can head out to ROTR as I'm heading to London the next week for 2 weeks, so I kind of have to be around here the week before. Trying to figure out if I can take a half day Fri or the whole day or what. I hate work.

yeah NYC show.

I'm heading to Rausch EARLY friday morning. it takes me about 3 1/2 hours. people like to hit those trails by 9. which means i have to leave my house by 5:30.

I probably won't be out there early enough to wheel Friday. I'm hoping to leave my house by 1 which puts me there after 4. I may then make a pit stop at Cabelas and then just go check in the hotel, then meet you guys for dinner

Got friday off. I'll be there any time ready to go

I probably won't leave until after 4. What is the dinner plans for Friday night?

Kase and son will be there Friday morning.

Got some "new" bits to try out - Rovertym trailing arms, Warn 9k winch, Tom Woods front drive shaft, and Rover Tracks panhard rod (thanks for the tip Ed).

Also a bunch of new camping stuff.

Whoops that didn't come out right. I meant that like I'm going to try to skip work on Fri - not skip ROTR. HAHA.

I was a bit drunk last night and I thought that didn't make sense. Lol

Hey Ed, I'm planning to be there bright and early Friday morning. There should be at least one other FPLRG truck there with me...

Okay so good news (which is rare due to current situations), my dad will have the week of the 9th off due to the storm. I'll definitely be in attendance and with any luck so will my dad.

That's easy. We do it all through Cafe Press, so you can just have them send it straight to you. http://www.cafepress.com/fplrg

I might have one other sticker that they don't have on the site. I'll bring it if I can find it. (FYI...The multi-layer green/gold one on my truck is the old logo, and there aren't any of those left.)

for you guys that are still able to head down. if you can take a minute to pick up a stuffed animal to bring to rausch this weekend, for a little girl who just lost her dad. if you seen it on dweb or Facebook, mike vancurren passed away last week. trying to raise some money for his family and figured it would also be nice to get his daughter some toys for christmas. I'm sure they are not destitute but i was thinking with losing her dad it might lift her spirits a little to head down to the christmas tree and be overwhelmed with cute stuffed animals.

Mike W is spot on. If you guys are coming to Rovers on the Rocks bring one. Mike V was a good dude and a big part of the Rover community for many years. After you wait 4 hours for gas the least you can do is spend 10 mins and stop in and grab a stuffed animal.

Apart from stuffed animals is there anything else we can bring?

talked to dan r. this evening, he is planning to bring Mike's truggy up and parking it at the rock course. we'd like to fill it up with stuffed animals for Maddy. whatever you think a 5 year old girl would get a kick out of, her mom says she loves animals...so any type of animal would be cool.

i know times are tough and most of you guys are under water, but donations would be very helpful as well.

Fernando, Ram and I will be leaving from NYC on Saturday morning at 4:30 to meet up with everyone by 8 to 9 at Raush. Anyone else leaving Saturday wanna ride in the group?
