Forgot to ask, what are we doing for dinner Saturday night, cuz I have this sweet colmans stove I want to try out

That was my question.. Are we supposed to bring anything.. May not stay for dinner but am not a Cad either...

Chris

I say we let the weather decide. I'm down for cooking Atty the camp site as a first option with the restaurant as back up, I was thinking of making burgers so sausage and peppers would go well with those.

Chris, for lunch we normally just buy sandwiches at the wawa where we meet.

Please note we are not meeting at the wawa. We are meeting at Batsto village see first page of this thread, so pick up what you need beforehand. There is a wawa near the starting point

We're bringing hot dogs for dinner, and stuff to make smores. If the weather is too wet, we may not camp. But we will be prepared to.

your truck wont run in the rain? Rain makes the pines fun. snow makes it even better, nighttime just tops it all off.

I'll try that.. If it's not torrential I may come down to check things out. We're wheeling up north NJ Sunday on a friends private compound.. The D1 is the only one set up for offroading.. My '95 LWB is a cream puff and will never see mud.. The '88 RRC I am building back to IRA spec from before it made it here..

Chris

Nice buys looks like I know what I'm putting on my birthday wish list

there are bypasses around nearly every water hole. nothing crazy, believe me i need to drive home to NY

I'm down. Rain or shine. The wife is conditional. 9 am at that place that's not the wawa? I can't wait. Should I bring anything? Food wise? I have a 30rack and a bottle of gentleman jack. But I was planning on eating diesel fuel and shitting diamonds, is that not the plan?
