I got to say I am getting excited about this! Looks like I am likely coming with two cars. One by road the other by trailer

Edit: Took out strange historical reference. This is an International forum

We had a walk up early registration yesterday

Naturally, I was in the middle of a very important online presentation to one of my clients. Doorbell rings. 450 pounds of dog go scrambling and barking to the door. Poor dude had to sit around for 90 minutes until I finished my call! But he had a *sweet*, pristine early 77 NA that he'll be bringing on Saturday. It'll be interesting to see how many day-of registrations we get...!

It's 3 great pyrenees ranging in weight from 67# to 140#, and a Bernese Mountain Dog @ 95#

We also have 3 donkeys, 3 mini horses, 7 sheep, and about 35 chickens

I'm still trying to figure out the live streaming thing. I haven't had much time to work on it, and I can't find a complete punch list of how to get my GoPro to stream via YouTube Live. If anyone can provide me with the Cliff notes, I'll be happy to give it a go, but I'm just about out of time to work on it

Giving my jeep a pretrip check over. As soon as I get off work tomorrow my wife is meeting me and we hit the road. I wish mine was together enough to just trailer it up but I have too many parts off. Oh well. I will show it all the pics when I get back home.

Awesome! Are you going to camp out or hotel it? Please feel free to come by and hang out tomorrow for as long as you can take it

We are taking the scenic route out of St.Louis. Going north and taking the ferries across the Mississippi and Illinois rivers before getting on I-55. We will probably spend the night in Bloomington. We will be there Saturday morning. If you still have the used VDO voltmeter that is in your store I would like to buy it Saturday. Sadly my wife has plans on Sunday so we will only be there for the day but she indulges my obsession so I need to keep her happy.

No worries, looking forward to Saturday. Enjoy the drive, safe travels, and I'll look for the gauge!
