Drive safe bud! I've done the drive to and from NC quite a few times in the jeep. Plenty of big rig traffic. Stay safe!

Overnight in Wytheville.
You would think the trucks were the problem, but they never are. There were a TON of cars driving like idiots today.
If we're going up a grade and I'm pulling 35 pounds of boost with the EGT's at 1100 towing 7K at 70 mph and I'm PASSING you, you need to immediately pull off the interstate, find the nearest DMV and return your license to the nice lady behind the desk.

Got the Kringle (Pecan, Cherry, Turtle, and something else that I can't remember), got the Jeep loaded, going to shower and take care of a few other things.
After that, fuel up and on the road. Hope to be on the highway by 1100-1130. Then Attica about 4-ish hours after that :wave1:
I'm out,

Really, it's probably best I don't leave until tomorrow. I keep remembering things I'm supposed to take with me. Truck is ready and Jeep is loaded. I bet I've made 5-6 trips outside to load stuff that I've forgotten:o. Only thing left to do is fuel up................I think...:D

I still need to pack clothes, otherwise everything is all set. I think. I've gone out to the garage 50 times and I always say, "Hey I have room in the Jeep" and throw it in there lol

I'll find out early tomorrow afternoon if I can come, pretty much as soon as my thesis defense is done. I figure it'll take me about an hour to throw my camping gear back together, get some food at the store, shove it all in the jeep and hit the road. So if I'm coming I'll probably be on the road about 3:30, and get in about 7:00 or so depending on traffic.

Pretty excited to get going, I'm sure I'm forgetting a ton but I just want to load up and head out now. Ah well, we'll get everything set tonight and head out in the morning.
Can't wait to see everyone again!

March 4th, 2010, 15:58
I can't wait to meet all you guys. I'm ready to leave now. I'd be on the road tonight but I have a class that gets done at 8:30 and I don't really want to setup camp in the middle of the night.
