Suggested date is Sept. 9 and 10 at this point . That means that we will be receiving visitors from Sept. 8 and will accommodate them through Sept. 10 . Same deal as last year and same rules . Maybe a different menu . Go hungry here is your own fault . We are starting this early enough that we should have a good time . We sure did last year .
SOH asked me to ask all of you if this date is going to work . She needs to know in order to schedule herself off work to babysit all of us .

passports renew with relative ease these days...and if i lived as close to the centre of the universe as you, i'd fly. Out here in the west, you can't get there from here...there is no such thing as a direct flight. I'll be landing and taking off right over your head in a few hours on my way to Fla.
I'd offer to buy you a drink at Pearson during my 3 hour layover, but it would be cruel to expect someone to show up there without the carrot of a beach vacation!~
I finally quit drinking for good.

We have enough commitment for SOH to reserve a week's vacation time around that date tomorrow . The roll call will be made closer to the date for menu planning . This is an open enrollment venue . No non refundable tickets are sold .

butch,

At risk of signing up and making my SOH mad, I'm signing up. I will fly in, so my contributions will be limited to cooking, cleaning, and burning the shit barrels.

Can't wait.

Guess you just elected yourself one of us kitchen bitches . Don't think the sanitation company supplying the porta-john would be happy with you burning their shithouse .
Keep us posted .

We would love to have you do that , too . That brings up another issue . varocketry did such a fantastic job of arranging for shirts last year that put no one at risk financialy . He put a lot of effort into helping make last year's event a success and was a fine fellow to share a weekend with .
So far I have heard nothing from him about whether he will be able to attend this year's gathering or help with shirt orders . Hope he can and will .
If not , we will have to take an alternative path to make the next gathering work .

No , we don't do that setting on fire thing . Upsetting one on the door while it is occupied by a member that doesn't play well with others could be an option .
It would take a majority vote from the group .
Last party there was NEVER any need for such a consideration . I would expect the same behavior from this year's attendees .
No quarter will be given to anyone who breaks our house rules and they will be outed here as well .

SOH said that this was our last one .
Of course she said the same last year and then changed her mind when she saw how much it meant to all of us .
We can hope for the future but we have no promise .

TIB:

I found this thread. Okay.

I recall Randy Marsh and his gorgeous SOH were going to host one of these where we could boil up some lobsta's. I'm looking forward to that.

FreeMountain - do you feel up to some educational content to offer some informational learnings for folks like me.? Makin' Cuts is always popular and lord knows we (I) could use the practice. I'd love to see some other demos or how-to's --- like an all grain mash from soup to nuts. Or makin sight glasses, or cutting 3" pipe to fit a 4" pipe for a sight glass, or hard soldering 4" pipe effectively, etc.

Trying to downsize our place now that the kids have flown the coop. Wife unit is on a tear making me part with all hobby stuff not touched in ten years, so all the high power rocketry projects, tools, chemicals, etc are going. I'm heading over to Higgs Farm, MD this coming weekend to try to sell it all off at fire sale prices at LDRS 36. I did get this baby sold on EBAY.

It was going to be my Level 3 certification project. But then our wonderful friends [BATF} declared AP to be an explosive instead of an oxidizer and started coming to regional shoots in plain clothes and asking guys building up their motors how they transported their rocket propellant across state lines. TRA and NAR fought them for six years and won. But I lost the bug in all that time.

This thread has been confusing for many . I'm going to open a new thread focused on S3/17 Truckorama to eliminate confusion and get to rug cutting on the second party here at my place .

Hey, think if it this way ... instead of sitting out a corn and soybean fields for hours getting sunburned and smelling sulphur, I now get to sit inside my closed shed, mostly freezing, watching drip-drip-drip for hours. Its a WIN-WIN !
