Informal meet and greet

[xjman88]

I am sending an invite out to some of the local XJ/Jeep owners in the Central Maine area. I would like to meet some of you all and thought this would be the best way. I was thinking this Saturday in Augusta at Sam's Club or in that general area. This is in no way an NAXJA event. I do want to form a local XJ and other Jeeps owners club. MJs, TJs, YJs or what ever you drive, as long as it is a Jeep, please bring it as well. Please post up and let me know. hope to see you there.
Later,
Matt

Damn I can't make saturday, family labor day cookout. Hopefully another time, though. Definately interested in meeting up with other jeepers, I know some decent wheeling in the area near me, but I avoid going alone, its far enough out that I don't want to walk when I get stuck lol.

Same here...can't make it due to Labor Day weekend plans...I am definitely up for the idea though...maybe shoot for a different weekend since it is a long weekend for most??

[swany]

love to go but work tuesday thru saturday, make it sunday and im in.

[xjman88]

Sunday would work for me. I do want to have another one in a couple of weeks or so. How about 12:00 then at Home Depot. I will be in a blue XJ with 33's and roof rack w/spare and a winch on the front w/ Texas plates. You can't miss it. I will hang out there until 3:00 or so. Shoot me an e-mail or you can call me at 207-547-3946 and we can talk then. Hope to see a few people then.
Later,
Matt

I love Maine.....espescially the North Woods. It's good to see we finally have a few members from the area...now maybe an event up that way could become a possibility. hint....hint...


Here's a teaser....approaching Mt Katahdin via the Golden Road.

how do you get to home depot from 95 south?

[swany]

great picture where in maine is that? i am fairly new to maine and i am looking for places to wheel and camp.

[xjman88]

how do you get to home depot from 95 south?
Get off 95 and go right and you will see Wal-mart on your left. Take the left into there and follow it up the hill and you should be able to see Home Depot there in front of you. I will have my cell with me if you need to call me when you get off 95. My number is 719-229-9510. Call with any questions please. Hope to see you tomorrow.

John B.,
Those pics remind me of Colorado. I hope to get some events and other stuff going soon. I would love to put Maine on the Jeepin map like Colorado is. I know it will take some time.

[xjman88]

I am heading out to wash the heep and head over to Home Depot. Hope to see you all there.
Matt

[98XJSport]

Where in Lewiston are you? I work down there, curious if Ive seen your xj on the road

[swany]

it was only me and xjman88 not a good turnout, hope next one is better for the 2 hour drive i had to do to get there.

[xjman88]

Swany,
Thanks a million for showing up and for the compliment on the XJ. I want to have another meet and greet in a couple of weeks. I will post up when this happens. I also want to plan a trip up to Northern Maine this fall as well as plan a snow run or two for this winter. If there is enough interest, I want to start a club and eventually our own chapter up here. Hope to see this forum become more active as well. I will talk to everyone later. If anyone wants to call me I can be reached at 207-547-3946 or on my cell at 719-229-9510.
Later,
Matt

I work at Napa in Lisbon. You probably havent seen my xj on the road yet. its been under the knife for a couple weeks. still gotta bleed the brakes and get the 33's mounted, then I should be down for a meet.

[rhino]

Sorry I couldn't make it this weekend, but I definitely will try for the next one. Looking forward to it!

[jeepmanxj94]

yea i would of definately shown up even though im jeepless right now i sold my old one and now getting ready for Rubi 05 project. im making plans to have another xj back on the road by spring of 08. gotta save up for college loans and stuff and i need to get back into a jeep here soon or else im gonna go nuts. looking to get a 05 rubi as dd and harcore the new xj i find. ive learned so much from the first projext xj and i know what not to do on the second. its gonna be an interesting long few months without a jeep.

[98XJSport]

Can't blame you for going nuts without it. Especially in the fall, I prefer fall wheeling myself.

Hope we do another meet soon, wish I coulda made the last one, but with a cople weeks notice I will make the next. We are all relatively close to each other, should be able to make it work out.
