Not likely. We are busy.... picked over 2000 cartons of corn today, 500 peppers, and ended the day picking some more corn by hand (due to heavy winds last week). We have a busy next few days. the 1st is still light years away, and things could easily change, but I can't, in good faith, plan on going. Even if we give our workers the day off, I have enough fix-it projects on our equipment to keep me busy for days.... wheel bearings, bent shaft on our disc, rollers on the harvester head, electrical switch on the harvester, realign running gear on a corn slide (trailer), stearing box and tie rod end on a pickup, a truck tire and a forklift tire have nails in them, I am waiting on hydraulic motor to be rebuilt for our sprayer...and the list goes on.

then there's the whole irrigation thing. If I don't get .75-1.0" of rain tomorrow night, I get to start watering round the clock. Oh the joys of farming. Thank god it's really only like this for 60-90 days.

I'm glad you're the farmer keeping my plates full. I would have quit a long time ago. I like gardening, but farming on a grand scale is crazy. You da man, Aaron.

If we are meeting around noon I would be there. I got busted a couple of weeks ago in Illinois doing around 90 in a 65 and that kind of makes me a little sc...d on the cruising part. But a meet without a cruise is...... Anyway I can bring a 24pack beer. But the funny thing is I don't drink so someone would have to suggest a brand. Would really like to meet Spork before he ships out.

Miller is fine with me if you want to bring a case. Any beer is good as long as it's not Bud.

And yes, we can start at around noon. Bring friends or significant others. The more the merrier.

We'll be here most of the afternoon, so hopefully you can make it.

And for those w/o a working Z, you can still come by.

I've got the day off, so I'll be prepping.

I'm hanging out in my driveway, and a black 350 keeps driving by. I'm going to have to flag him down and invite him. It still has the dealer paper plates on it.

We'll decide when everyone gets here.

I'm kinda thinking about Cars and Coffee, but that depends on everyone else.

Now it's time to kick Dave's *** in Battlefield.


<-- not Dave atm

BEER! lol

Bring chips and dip or whatever. Hot white chicks would be a bonus.

I'm going to be working on the Z, Ben will be washing his, and we're going to try and snag that new Z owner on the other side of the block.

I've got brats and burgers, Tara's making potato salad and some dessert, and we're also going to make guacamole. I have some beer but not much. We got some Pepsi, Monster from the last big meet, and possibly another fruit tray.

Nice meeting all you guys and special thanks to Dave and Tara for hosting.
It was a small but nice meet. Another fun part was chasing down and bringing that black Z, lol.
