SuiteSuccess Posted March 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Count is 24 now. We will have some stragglers as things get closer. Was in touch with Kim. They were without electricity for a week but have it back now. Lost about a hundred trees that uprooted but thankfully no property or personal damage or injuries. Roads and sites are clear so we should be good. May take my chain saw and help her clear a little bit and put the wood at 336. Wasn't going to get my hopes up too high but she had already begun surveying and staking for a new pavilion that would be in the back loop and would be ready for our rally. However the site took a hit and with the other urgencies, now on a back burner. Are you guys thinking of reconsidering? New games and challenges . Not that far from Crossville to Alaska. 2006 Volvo 780 "Hoss" Volvo D12, 465hp, 1650 ft/lbs tq., ultrashift Bed Build by "JW Morgan's Custom Welding" 2017 DRV 39DBRS3 2013 Smart Passion Coupe "Itty Bitty" "Don't go around saying the world owes you a living.

BandBuds Posted March 6, 2015 Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 No we're not planning to come east from Texas. We are heading out to Arizona to chase down Vern & Chris. Just wanted to know how things were developing. We'll miss the fun. We've really enjoyed our three trips to Crossville for the ECR.

NeverEasy Posted March 6, 2015 Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 My wife, Deb, and I will be attending. We signed up a couple of weeks ago. We went last year and stayed in one of the cabins. We were looking at ideas for converting our Freightliner. Then some guy stopped by and wanted to buy it for commercial towing. After seeing some of the rigs last year we wished we had bought a Volvo, mostly for the creature comforts and auto-shift. We sold the Freightliner and bought one listed on this forum from Seamo.

ATCBoomer Posted March 6, 2015 Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 We will be there the first Friday and Saturday night but we have to head home on Sunday. Looking forward to meeting those that will be there during that time. Wish I could stay the week but having a child still in school prevents that.

phoenix2013 Posted March 10, 2015 Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 Bill, thanks for the offer, I "moteled" in Jay's 780 couple Rallies ago in Kansas when I just flew in into rally, it was grand. The decision point is: 1. Possibility of delivering and installing an ET at the Rally. If that's the case, I will bring my 780 to the Rally 2. If not, I will drive in and "motel" Carl, Davena and her mom will not be coming, she just turned 99 and there comes a point when such excursions are just too much.
