Great.. I can charge people money to not partake, so they won't have to see me do it. :)

Hmmmm...I think that will all depend on how much beer is consumed. Am I right people?!

Certainly. Try to get here earlier if you can...but 8 is fine...you have a long drive. Yes, I'll be totin' various instruments, including some new pennywhistles I gots. Easy to play, but hard to play well...I believe they'll add a new flavor to our jams. FancyPants will be there too (you know, John Shepski...sings ole timey schtuff, was at the last two RendezVW's) between you, me, hammy, gypsie, wayne and fancypants, we oughta have a real hoot! Hopefully there'll be another surprise musician or two in the mix. I'm bringin' my big ass outfitter shelter too (hammy knows about this) and will try to find a good place to string it. Still working on the keg...need to finalize next week. Not sure which variety...either Hamms or Busch I'm thinking...Milwaukee's Best in a pinch. :geek: NOT! Snowin' like hell here now. Hope the weather cooperates for us.

Earlier? I only got one engine in the bus :geek:

Tried to do a last minute headlight relay upgrade today but in order to do it with local parts I would have to pay 5 times the price for the two relays to make the lo/hi beam trick work. Gonna have to travel with me dim lights again that damn near kilt me last I tried to make it to Nehalem :cyclopsani:

Anywho, I'll push the spiffy bus until the heat works :king:

So far so good. We're going to get some snow here tomorrow morning now I do believe. trace to two inches maybe some freezing rain before rain by tomorrow afternoon.

This weekend seems to be getting drier all the time. Chance of showers on Friday and Saturday.. Thursday looks good. Could be dry the whole weekend, but I bet we get some showers.. moderate temps.. high 50 low 40 in that range.

I'll give you a final update on Weds night.. but looking good!!!!!
