I have blocked out the week on my calendar at work... I have some menu ideas... I'll suspect that I will start a different thread for food at the MKT at a later date... Looking forward to being back after a two year hiatus...

Such sad news... I will never forget that trip we made out to NE as part of Ziggy's big move each of us driving a M915A1. I have never laughed as much before or since as I did when we shared a M915 for the ride back.... RIP

I would like to thank everyone that attended the event. A really big thank you goes out to: Chuck for manning the tent and taking care of registrations and shirt sales (as well as taking care of folks’ sale items…). Robert for manning the firing range (and both he and his wife taking care of...

The daily schedule (subject to change due to weather, etc) is posted on the event website.... Trailrides in the morning are at 8 and 10.... Chuck (BMan) will post the daily updates on the white board at the HQ/Registration tent. For more info see: http://www.gravesmountaintrailrides.com...

You can. Just see Chuck at the registration/HQ tent in the center of the camping field.

As I toss a few extra jerry cans onto the truck... Don't forget that the nearest fuel is in the town of Madison. Please top up your tanks on the way in (you know, before you leave the four lane and get on the twisty two lane that leads to the farm...). Also, remember that we have no cell phone...

I posted a bunch more of those photos onto the Flickr account as well... I'll bring a memory stick with all of them that I took that weekend so that you can snag ones of life around the cabin (swimming, cooking, card games, etc) for you to share.

A couple of videos showing the entire field so that everyone can get an idea of how big an area the guys mowed (and that we have for camping...). https://www.flickr.com/photos/124394777@N06/44196257611/in/datetaken/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/124394777@N06/43478271034/in/datetaken/ The...

Just a few photos from last weekend showing the mowing crew hard at it...

Hate to hear that... Glad that you are doing well and are taking good care of yourself. When you do make it back to Graves, keep in mind that the Saturday night menu has been expanded a bit since not everyone eats pork (or meat, for that matter...). :)

I neglected to take photos of stuff that I have for sale this past weekend... I have: new STA 7.50x16 NDCC tires Lugnuts (inner/outer, left/right) for M37, 2.5, and 5 ton trucks. Plastic Water Cans Plastic Insulated Coffee/Tea/Water/Juice dispensers M37 parts (call if you need something...

Remember that we have lots and lots of space so bring whatever you want to sell/trade/donate... There is no extra fee for vending or for taking up an acre or two of space for all your vehicles and gear... :smile:

Sonny tends to keep the fire at our campsite (middle of the field) on the large side and everyone is always welcome to come by and hang out... We will be having a group bonfire on Sunday night. I plan on dragging wood over to the fire location off and on during the week. Assistance dragging...

You might want to bring some kindling and wood for your first fire... We have been logging for the past five or seven years. We have had a bunch of storms over the winter. We have a lot of quality wood beside the trails waiting to be collected and hauled back to the campsites... Because the...

As mentioned earlier, Al Harvey will post up with some comments before the event and will have a briefing before each range session. That said: The range is "primitive". It's one of the areas that we use to sight in rifles before hunting season, near one of our orchards, just a short ride...

I'll let him post up about it when he is ready, but since Mike SCSG-G4 has informed me that he can't make it this year, Al Harvey has agreed to run the range for us...and he is mulling over some interesting opportunities for folks who attend... :)

In addition to the "regular mix" of trucks, we have confirmed that we will have a M20 on site to give the Halftrack a run for its money around the orchards... A DKW Munga will return from last year and the M561 Gama Goat from two years ago will also be returning and they will both be...

As mentioned, we have a good distribution of folks who rent a motel room, cabin, or camp out in the field. Of the field campers, we seem to split pretty evenly in past years between campers, tents, and back of the truck/trailer... Rooms/cabins at the Lodge come with meals (all you can eat)...

When we put 700 campers in the field for the music festival (Thu-Sat after Memorial Day), it is the rare generator that can be heard at night...even though some folks let them run 24/7. With the smaller group that we have for the MV Trailrides, the sound of even one bounces around the normally...

Great news! Looking forward to seeing you both. It wouldn't be a "Virginia Rally" without you.... :)
