@Jim Oaks and EVERYONE else.

You too @85_Ranger4x4 and @Mrs. Eighty Five because ummm i dont see y'all in the line up.

Mr. Gump is making a list... he's checking it twice...

I count 31 people on the list. I have until tomorrow the get in an order.

16 pizzas should cover the group. I'll error with a couple more... just incase the 85's crew can make it.


Speak now with additions or if you won't be able to make it. @Gibby6468 I'm aware of your situation... I'm still counting you because we'd still like to see you on Saturday.

So I haven’t registered… might try to get that done… it’s gonna come right down to the wire on this one I’m afraid. Green Ranger is still tore apart and I’m trying to thrash on it a bit. Choptop still needs the axles fixed. I’m not trying to drive the F-150 that far. It would likely make it, but not be happy about it. I need at least the green Ranger squared away and enough money for gas and all. I have enough to cover gas right now. Not sure about how much else I have. Trying hard not to spend money I don’t have to. I’m getting a little worried this might be a repeat of last year’s failure.

If I can make it, it will be me and Lisa. She already has time off, but her money situation isn’t any better than mine. I didn’t really expect to come up pinching pennies, but I’ve unfortunately been forced to throw money at some problems that I had been trying to put off.

I checked the list and half of the 85Ranger4x4 team is on the list, r-hindl1 and techmouse. I am pretty sure that 85Ranger4x4 and MrsEightyFive are going to be there, I beleive 85 is planning on making it the vegabound overland event

I received the registration from techmouse. I'm assuming you're the +1 on his registration.

UPDATE:

Earlier in the year I contacted Warn and Factor 55 about being sponsors, but never heard back. Today I received a Warn Medium Duty Accessory Kit and a Factor 55 Ultrahook as giveaway items, so Warn and Factor 55 are now sponsors of our 25th Anniversary Fall Adventure!!

Remember, the deadline to register is tomorrow Friday August 23rd.

You da man!!!

That attendance list is looking great. I better print off a few more scavenger hunt clue lists.

Everyone...

I don't like flip flopping pizza night...

But due to other things going on Saturday evening... pizza night has to go back to Friday night.

I'm sorry if that effects anyone's plans.

Well my Dad went to the nursing home earlier today and lasted about 2 hours then passed away. He made his arrangements already and is being cremated. No service, obituary or anything like that

Just spent a couple of hours getting caught up on this thread. So sorry to hear about your dad. Everybody has to go through that at some point in their lives; but there isn't much comfort in knowing that. You have my deepest condolences...

No problem. It's always been on the itinerary for Friday. It was Friday last year as well. We did pizza on Saturdays at the Badlands in Indiana.

On a side note I finally got my topper on the truck. An ARE model. Fiberglass, not sure what it weighs, was not light.

Somewhere around 150-200#. The last time I pulled my cap, I used my engine puller to lift it up and out of the way.

Probably should have asked my neighbor or anyone for help but managed it by myself.

Mine has a reinforced roof for the roof rack. So it's heavier than my old craigslist cap was. I could move that one by myself, without mechanical help but not this one. The one on the 2019 isn't much better for the same reason.
