It's all going to depend on available cash this year.
If I can swing it I will bring the firewood, QBQue and deal with the gravy again.

I'm planning on coming! Will probably be just me and the boys, but that means we could bring the jeep this year. It needs to get out in a bad way. I can bring anything...maybe mashed potatoes in dutch ovens this time?

Bump! Is it safe to assume Flint and Krista will be there?

Where is everyone else? Less than a month to go....

Last I heard they will not make it this year. They had spent a lot of time coming down here and going back with Krista
operations. But they are still more than welcome if they can.

Thanks for the update Jerry, I am praying for them and secondary hoping they can make their annual trip. Good thoughts to ya!

AZchip, there is no requirement to show up in a FSJ. It's more about hanging out with friends.

Where do we go? How long do we stay? What is usually brought? What should I bring? Do I need to borrow a Jeep from Jerry?

Azchip we usually meet up at McDonalds in Florence and then head out to the wash we hold this in. The area can hold 20 + rigs and is easy to get in and out of with about any type of car, truck camper. We stay until Sunday sometime. As to what to bring it's a Thanksgiving dinner out in the desert so what to bring goes along with that.

Sweet Casey!

Hey everyone, I could use a door handle (inside) mine is stripped. Also need the spacer for the alternator like the one in the alternator thread going on right now.

Thanks Bob! I see you added a few more names. Is there a FB page or something too?

It's sad we won't get any out of towners this year. But there is always next year! Hopefully Flint/Krista can make it, Dusty will have her jeep running and Heimy will make the trip out.

Has anyone reached out to Tom Gwinn? Also, I will call Kevin and Derek this week and see if they plan on showing up.
