OK gang, we have 9 days left until Haspin '06!!

We need to start making final plans about who's bringing what vehicles, food, campground accessories, friends, relatives, etc...

I am planning on getting to Haspin around noon on Friday the 14th. I will be hauling the Mog in for it's second attempt on the monster hole. Hopefully I will have the portal box put back together in time :evil: I have a fresh rebuilt carb on it too so hopefully the flooding and crap I had last year will be cured. I will be bringing my brother, Chad, who will riding shotgun in the Mog. I will have a full assortment of tools and spare fluids with me. We will be bringing a lantern, single burner camp stove, tent, cooler full of Reeb and Gatorade, some jugs of drinkin water, hot dogs, buns, chips, pop-tarts, first-aid kit, bug spray, glad-hand air hose, etc... I'll add more to the list as we think of it.

Can someone bring a grill? How about a shelter? Firewood? Burgers?

The t-shirts should be in the end of this week. I'll bring them all to the Rally. I'll post a pic of one when they come in.

Post up guys! Don't miss the fun!!

I am trying for the 13th! Thinking late afternoon. Bringing Deuce, Jeep, camper, 5k generator, food, tools, and a beer drinking buddy. No grill or firewood, no room left! Will try find a decent area, hopefully out of the way of any midnight ATV riders. Working my butt off getting ready!

Sweet genset! We can back your deuce up against a hillside and use the Mog or one of the 715s to pull it out for you. Between you and Stretch, we'll have enough power to light and cool the whole camp!

I will have my 12 foot ramps, could come in handy for unloading your genset.

Ramps will work well too! I should have the portal box on the Mog back together tonight. I just talked to my brother this morning. He will be heading up to Franklin tomorrow afternoon where we will load the Mog up on the trailer and head out. Thanks to Lance, we'll be bringing a drop cord and a fan for the tent. You're awesome man.

The t-shirts are in. I am going to pick those up this afternoon and will post a pic tonight. I got one for everyone who posted in the t-shirt thread, plus about 10 extras for anyone else who would want one. The extras will be sold in the upcoming SS Webstore.

Hey Stan,
Glad to have you coming to the Rally. The more the merrier and I can't think of a better way for a new guy to meet a bunch of the members! Firewood will be much appreciated. We'll get your M38 unloaded no problem. Chris and Fred are skilled at getting things in and out of their deuces. I will reserve a couple of t-shirts for you. Please let me know what size(s) you would like in advance. See you Friday!!
Chris

Made it here! Camped at the pavilion, by pond. Turn right into campground when entering, I will be on your left, at the bottom of the hill.
Old camper is setting there. Should have it roped off tomorrow.
