An expensive solution, but she's going to see if she can give away the hours.

Re: Mini meet in Prairie Grove Arkansas...
My final answer…I'm not coming.
The date on this meet has been a bit like a greased pig. Really hard to hold in one place.
I'd like to thank all of you for allowing me to push the date around...Remember this?
But there is now. My wife has been diagnosed with cancer. My very understanding wife, who has never said no to a Suzuki... who now deserves my complete attention.
We have faith in a complete remission, and many more years together. But first we have to tread the path of Chemotherapy.

There was no medical situation when I wrote that. (I wish gas had gone to $8.00 instead.)russmehl wrote:One more time...

I won't move it again.
But I reserve the right to bail for Medical Emergencies and Gas over $8.00 / gal.

Re: Mini meet in Prairie Grove Arkansas...
We are all behind you and our thoughts and prayers are with you two as well. We'll miss you, but I'm sure we will see you at the main meet at Moab.
I'd rather be driving my LJ!

It's a shame you cleaned up the yard. Sounds like you're going to have a really big pool in a few minutes

Re: Mini meet in Prairie Grove Arkansas...
Ok. I'm ready to load up tomorry. I'm taking Sleepy and Mouser.
Sleepy:
He's READY! No probs and he's running good.
Mouser:
He will go. Dunno how ready he is. No rear shocks. No rear lights. He's got a stumble coming off idle. His dual transfer case setup has never been tested. His driveshafts and Samurai axles have not been tested. He's not been driven over 30 feet in 2 years. ............But I think he'll kick a$$.
See y'all there (those that are coming).

The above is my opinion. It is subject (like all my opinions) to debate, disagreement, rude gestures, and loud raspberries.

Wrong. He has a Samurai roll bar modified to mount like an original LJ. I haven't made the "A" hoop yet.tweeder wrote:DIBS!!!Smuz wrote:Yes, Mouser lives.
you got a good cage on him, right?
I'll take yer "dibs" under advisement. I got no prob with you driving him, but you better remember that you AIN'T got enough money if'n ya breaks him 'cause you was stupid.

Re: Mini meet in Prairie Grove Arkansas...
You folks have a lot of good, safe fun. Last I looked at the weather if looked promising. We are pulling out of here early tomorrow for KY but will go by Jimny's work to drop off some stuff to him on the way. Hope you all help Tweeder's dad keep a hold on Tweeder. Smuz, good luck with Mouser (and Tweeder).

Re: Mini meet in Prairie Grove Arkansas...
That's the quote of the week.(those that are coming)
You don't have to worry about Tweeder hurting Mouser, he has to work (LIE!) so he won't be coming, __TR__ won't be coming, Myers won't be coming, Sluggo won't be coming, Russ won't be coming, Mike won't be coming, ... it looks like it will be Smuz, Vagabond, R.B.B., Tweedy Bird and I... oh and a couple locals with their Sami's and a Sidekick that has been modified.
Less food I will have to buy for the Sat night dinner.

Re: Mini meet in Prairie Grove Arkansas...
LOL!!! That's alright. The smaller the better.
We'll have plenty of LJ's but not enough drivers. Between Smuz bringing an extra one and I have four extra ones to drive.
Just got a call from Mike and he will be here now.

Re: Mini meet in Prairie Grove Arkansas...
i has to work FRIDAY, so it's half truth. the other half has a lot to do with me being flat-freakin' broke (my checking account has only one tank of gas in it, and a Fayetteville run takes at least two) and a meeting saturday night that i MUST go to.....missed too many, already.Jimny wrote: You don't have to worry about Tweeder hurting Mouser, he has to work (LIE!)
A legend in my own mind.
Re: Mini meet in Prairie Grove Arkansas...
Do you mean leaving the wife home or leaving the wife ?Jimny wrote:Oh man THAT SUCKS!!!
So what you are saying is, that you are leaving your wife home? Just Kidding!

Re: Mini meet in Prairie Grove Arkansas...
Raincheck? Possibly so... I am thinking about doing this here maybe every year, just got to see how it goes and how everyone likes it.

Re: Mini meet in Prairie Grove Arkansas...
Weather is supposed to be in the 70's all weekend and down in the mid 50's at night, it will make for some great camping.
