Erin is sick with a sore throat and possible fever (she doesn't have a thermometer?!?). I still plan on attending but she may not be with me.

Just wanted to update the list...
Oh, and I know I'm having a bunch of people come out to your guys' meet, and I wanted to let you know a couple things. I've met almost all the people that are coming, and they are all very nice, well mannered people.
They aren't the type to do some sick nasty parking brake FWD burnouts...
This is going to be a very enjoyable event, and lots of cars.
I'm not a religious man, so anyone who is, pray and have your family pray for no rain. Haha!
And I just want to add this... Wooooo Wooooo!
1. Chris and Stacy - puppy chow, propane, guac?
2. Daniel and Brigette - BBQ Burgers
3. Noberto and family
4. Zach - water and pop
5. Devin - Propane Grill
6. Luke and Maggie
7. Jordan (and Erin?)
8. Chee La and Mai See (+1) - things to grab food with and things to put food on as well as some sort of pastry/dessert goodness.
9. Shig and Ting Ting - snacks like crackers and stuff
10. Joe - 2. 12 Pk.s of Coke and Sausage links
11. Sean - Burger Buns
12. Dalton - 12 Pk. of Dew
13. Rod - Sausage buns
14. Art - Case of water
15. Celi (+1) - Ketchup and Mustard
16. BrahManty - More pop, dogs, and buns.
17. 2K - More water
18. MrFunny
19. Friso + 1
There are two more 7th gen's that are possibles and my brother...

Are we going hiking after the meet? For anyone interested, we will probably be paying a quick visit to the car wash before the meet.

Nah, I'll figure out the cooler situation. Either gotta buy a couple of small coolers or just stop by a grocery store up there to pick up some burgers.

If you want, I can cover your share of burgers, and you can just give me some money at the meet to cover them. That way you wont have to duct tape a cooler to the roof

Erin is getting over a case of strep, on some meds right now and should be along for the adventure. Good thing, driving on 80 is so boring.

Zach, if its all the same to you, I may just pay you for the burgers. I'm working 12 hours tomorrow then I'd get home at 8:30, take a shower, run out for burgers, come home, mix the burgers and sauce, try to figure out a cooler situation, then try to get some sleep before getting up at 5 am and hitting the road. Just let me know how much I owe you. In the meantime, I'll pack some other things. Soda or buns or cookies or different cookies or twice as many cookies or something.
