It could happen for us on Saturday.
Could we start a little earlier, like 8:30 - 9:00am?
I really dislike getting back in the dark.

Have not done Woodpecker.
Read that it was bladed a year or more back but found a video on youtube from Dec 8th, 2013 that showed there is still stuff to wheel.

Drew, Jerry, Bob, Kevin, Ralph, Frank, Martin, Jeff ??? Ah crap, who am I forgetting?

Tad, any thoughts on camping?

If it's just you and me Tad I might post up on Azvjc too. I would cap the run at, say, 5 rigs unless you might want to camp afterwards.

I'm going to have to change to no on the camping for sure and back down to a maybe on the run.
I'll no better once tomorrow gets rolling, might be important to be here instead.

No problema, I am having someone cover for me for the night but should be okay for a day run.


If it falls through I can alway go get the mustang and work on it.

This weekend is out for me...one set of visitors leaves on Saturday (family) and one set comes in on Sunday. But man, watched the whole video and it looks fun. I'm finding the day after runs are a bit of a downer...like a 4 wheeling hangover. That normal? I have to go drive the jeep around the block just to knock it.

As for the following weekend, Saturday is out and Sunday is an iffy maybe. I have to take my wife on the next wheeling trip or she will torch the jeep. So need to consider her schedule too...would probably mean bringing kids, so may have to make my next trip a Bulldog Canyon type trip.

We could do either of those dates better than this weekend but Em is out for camping.
She's been out of town for almost a week and is feeling guilty about having folks watch her dog.

Ok, let's plan on next weekend. The weather should still be nice and it will give me a chance to get going on the Mustang.

I might be interested on going a week from Saturday. I would be in the CJ for this run. So go ahead and give me the business. No camping tho.

We prefer Saturday too.
That way if something goes real wrong we have a day to deal with it.
