Going to try and make it Mike. Let me know if anyone is planning on doing the claw run.

Thanks,

Parker

C'mon folks... come out and have fun! Support JV!! I'll be out there stock with rails & skids (oh, and the dog), having myself a grand ol' time =).

[ocean_jet]

Cool... my pup will have a friend.

[mikedashg]

C'mon folks...


Heh, not too worried about it. I'm usually surprised at how many people actually show up who don't post up about it or vote on the polls. We've had over 100 show up one year and like 20 people voted on the poll. I've posted up here about a meet and greet one time. NOBODY responded here on the forum, but we had 15 people at the M&G.

:dunno:

Should be there before dark friday night Mike, see ya on da lakebed.....SANTA

Poor Eddie is almost as rarin'-to-go as as I am--Eddie saw his food & water bowls, food, and leashes go into the XJ, and he's been bopping and dancing around ever since. 75+ lbs of energetic happy Rotting Shepherd. The cat is not pleased.

[fingers crossed] doesn't look like too windy of a weekend, either! Weather.com only knows Landers, not JV, but:

Try the weather underground.

http://www.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?query=johnson%20valley,%20ca&wuSelect=WEATHER

A few weeks ago we had 40+ mph winds there. This time it should be a lot nicer.

[karstic]

I hope you don't have the winds from KOH.

Have fun everyone.

[Carol.92124]
