Things are rocking early. Day 2 of the rally is getting busy.

We had a good show so far. I bought all the good stuff so far so I hope others are bringing new stuff :)

At the T&A truck stop in Richmond hill on i 95 and costal highway, spending the night. About 200 miles to go, running on a blown head gasket since before Jacksonville, it's making a huge mess! I'm pretty sure I'll make it there.
anyone have a multifuel topend gasket set?
Let us all know if we can help.

Judging from the pics I would say that the Jackwagon Asshat Rolling Roadshow has pulled into town.

Jennifer and I may possibly be by Sat afternoon for an hour or hour and a half to pick up some parts,I can make no promises yet,but possibly.
Brandon, I just need about 4 hugs if ya'll make it and none from you, just a handshake. Jennifer needs to hug Me, Lee, Joey and Briggs!! She'll have to lean down to hug the last two boy's but she's done that the past few years so I doubt that will be a problem. I hope ya'll get a chance to make it. GodSpeed Sir!!

I will be there early Tuesday to unload 3 pallets of ammo cans and set up my 20ft tent were ever im suppose to set my trailers for the swap meet! Carve me out a spot!

I will probably bring my second trailer down Tuesday as well and park it in my vender area.

I will be traveling light thanks to flight luggage restrictions. So no evening dress and nice shoes this time. Lot of old clothes and working shoes which can be discarded after use at the Rally to take more goodies home.

Logistics on spot. Been so busy with tickets etc that I did not think further about how to handle surviving on locations, also thanks to all the reassurances from a lot of good people on here.

I like a bit of privacy and sleeping alone if not with Olga or the grandchildren.
So if I can take up on that, some requests for help here:

- Has anybody a spare tent I can use? The usual 6x7 feet with 4 feet height is OK, everything over is luxury.
- A camping seat and small table to work on the laptop
- an airbed? Large or double size no problem; even better. (I am 6.2)

Alternatively, a Walmart or identical where I can buy those things on the cheap and leave them here afterwards?

Maybe a contact phone to some of the GA mafia would not be a bad idea either in case I get delayed or stuck on the Airport.

Getting close now, see you all soon. Any idea about a welcome committee or at least a driver at the Airport?

Hydrocarbons (among other combustables) being ignited providing thrust to the rotating mass for westward propulsion.

Translation I just started the truck and am rolling out now to D town.

Wreckerman and Sigo, please think about taking the tripods and camera's.

Screws and bolts I need to take back home. Basically: all these little screws used to fix the lock and window mechanisms to the door and frame, dashboard screws, bolt fixing the engine kill cable against the engine, bolt used to keep the cover platelet for adjusting the brake shoes etc. You know, all these little screws and bolts that always fall out of your hand in long grass and somehow magically disappear.

Just some last minute ideas:

What about small scanner and printer, is it available in the registration tent?

Data projector for showing videos and photos to more than two people (can go against any white wall or against a small portable screen)
