[srodocker]

hehe yea...MilitaryRestoration are you still bringing a extra??

 

[wsucougarx]

Just curious with just a little over a week to go. Just getting a feel for what everyone will be sporting on this journey. How many will be in uniform of past or present?
So far, looks like the weather will be cooperating with up at least from Monday-Friday w/a project high in the upper 70's. Lets hope and pray for good weather for Saturday!!! Just in case, make sure your wipers are good to go

How many will be in uniform of past or present?

That thought never crossed my mind until I read your post. I had not really even considered wearing one, perhaps that is because I work in one all week?

hmmm....

 

[Hammer]

Thought about wearing my old one, or the new one. I imagine I would wear some sort of uniform.

 

[wsucougarx]

Yah, I just saw a youtube video on a 4th of July parade and saw several MV drivers in uniform. I'm still hmmmm'ing over this one too. Funny thing, I have my MARPAT uniform from Pendleton that I never got to wear. May be the opportunity to finally wear it Now I just need to find my boots

 

[AaronW]

I'll be in civvys w/ my USS DALLAS issue ball cap. 10 years in uniform was good enough for me. It's gonna be quite warm in the cab after about mile 130!

 

[wsucougarx]

Ahh, Aaron we'll be grinning from ear to ear the entire way. I doubt we'll notice anything at all

 

[MilitaryRestoration]

Sadly I wont be making it...Due to not working the past almost 3 weeks I have been scrounging around looking for side work and have no extra room to make the trip, sorry guys and especially sorry to those that were thinking about using my rigs:-/

 

[AaronW]

You will be missed MR! Maybe next time.

 

[wsucougarx]

Looks like we're going to have an outstanding turnout. Many things going on that day. We should raise a little ruckus w/the Lakefair activities and there's a classic car show in Montesano that we can all buzz

 

[AaronW]

Mike, I thought about making a quick stop at the old courthouse. It just looked like parking and keeping us all together would be difficult. What do you think? You gonna bring your other trucks into town so we can look at them on the way by?

 

[wsucougarx]

Hey Aaron, typically the classic car show is right in front of the old courthouse. Monte, usually closes off 3 blocks of road right in front of the courthouse as well as the main streets going up to the courthouse for their classic are overflow. Grays Harbor has a huge pushrod/classic car club. It's not unusual to have upto 100 cars at the show. We may be able to buzz down main street as it provides a straight route to an exit right back onto the hwy. I'll recon the courthouse Saturday morning when I head up to Cabela's and give you a brief.

 

[Alex400]

Hey, guys i would like to come and see this event. Is there anyone that i might be able to ride along in the cab with? I am really interested and probably would have a deuce if i had the room and the means to own one.

Thanks!

Alex, Show up for sure! I'm sure someone will be able to fit you in. If not, you might want to tag along with the convoy or just meet us back in Napavine for the camp out/cook out.
