I would have liked to help but up until today, I had no idea who we were picking up. As it stands now, I may not make the rally. There is one day my employer has denied me leave. If that can't be resolved, I'm screwed. Work is such a huge inconvenience.

Can't you just call in sick, that one day?

6000 person agency and I can't get this one day off. I will do my best to work around this. Sick? Maybe but look at this and tell me what you would do as my employer. Vaca, vaca, day off, day off, day off, sick, vaca. On the other hand if you look at if from my view point;
off, off, off, off,off, you want me to work and off.

Yeah, I'm split on, if I would really do it too. But, I have no idea what you've tried(or done) in the past.


Sure would suck, if you get the day in question off, and then did actually get sick! Then what do you do?

You need to find a way to get "Administrative Leave". Short of shooting someone; unless they need shooting...... :whistle:

PB - coming into that field and headed down the left side toward that A frame thingy Ron is going to camp in - the last 2 power & water RV outlets on that side are 11 & 12 - these two are PAID IN FULL from the 7th to the 14th for Deb and I and CAMO group. That back circle area is a great area to stay out of the way - and give enough room for turn around for CAMO gear coming in in usual display as they do.

We should have a van there with a trailer with Debs M38A1 in tow for parking area as well. - folks that tent camp'd around Neil - and us last year back in behind us to stay safe - great area to do so (just saying) - Neil if ya need power and water you might want to get slot 10. If you have your reducer plug to drop from 50 to 30 would work great - or you can borrow ours.
I've got B8 and B9 for the MKT setup, and Joe Trapp has B7 near the entrance.
Who is camped in spots B-9 and B-11?? I want to know who my neighbors are!
Looks like your right in the taint section between the fish fry and the porta potty.

I know this has probably been asked or mentioned but Im going to ask anyway. When would one of the Wrecker Trucks be set up to help with unloading? I have a large item im needing to bring down and was thinking about maybe bringing it early.

WELL the plan is that the 819 AND the 62 will be there the SAT or SUN before, BUT we all know how plans tend to change to new plans, then to another plan all together.

Folks, something just came to my mind and wanted a little input. I will be at the entrance to the field making name tags for all that enter. As we wander around the field we sometimes cross paths and sometimes not. I was thinking that we might should think about hanging a little sign of some sorts at our AOs so that folks know when they have arrived at a spot where they may be picking something up they prepayed for or selling something. The nametags go a long way but tags for the sites might be nice. As of this years move, we no longer know folks normal spots. Also, try to be patient with me at registration, I'm going to try to keep a file of all the tags I make. Might take me a spell to get fluid in my operation. If you think about it, make a little sign and toss it in with your stuff as you pack.

Edit; working out some nametags!

Everyone will know my AO, just look for the wrecker in 100 pieces!

Good idea Kenny, I have a hard time finding peoples locations as well when going to drop off or buy something prearranged.

I hope folks know to put the sign in the name they use on here instead of their real name. It might say Joe. If you didn't know that Sandcobra is Joe you might miss him.
