Would love to meet the mad man behind the CC curtain! I'm certainty willing to travel to meet up as well. I may be able to come up by you. that would let me take I-70 across the great flat blah instead of whatever the heck "state highway 50" is.

88mjsally Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 I might be able to come down from clemson and meet you on the first leg of your trip as you pass by the clemson exit on i85. I’m sure Sam (satiricalhen) would probaby come with me too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but you could stop at the Coleman Outlet in Wichita if you stayed on Hwy 50. The great flat blah is terrible unless you have a lot of time to see some of the sights (there are a few out there)! I'm open either way and look forward to meeting up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure Sam (satiricalhen) would probaby come with me too the first day starts at the Airport because I'm dropping my folks off. don't know exactly when except that it'll be evening and so doesn't really lend itself to meetings. heck, I might have to skip Jeremy (the end destination for that night) if I'm running behind. and god only knows what I'll need to do if the flight is canceled or substantially delayed. Besides, the house is on the east side of atlanta so it'll be far easier to have a meetup closer to you later this fall. I already promised Sam one after our last attempt fell through.

kansashogan Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 Pete, if you stick to the original route you will literally be 1.25 miles north of my house. I live right south of Hwy 400 in Southeast Kansas. If you pass through stop by and I will fill your belly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All around mj Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 Is the map showing that you are stopping in Springfield, MO on the 1st? It’s about an hour drive from my house, but it’s also where Bass Pro’s story begins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Automan2164 Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Just peeking in here, but I see your route will be pretty close to my place in Harvard, and also near Scott's place in Woodstock. I'd more than welcome a cc gathering at my house, have 5 acres for plenty of parking. Marginal off-road park about 35 mins away. In McHenry, IL. Also have the turbo diesel MJ and 2.5 others on the property. Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

500 MJ Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 I’m up for a meeting at Rob’s place, that is a closer spot for me to go to rather than PDC or La Crosse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted August 26, 2019 Author Share Posted August 26, 2019 dropped the Durango off at the dealership to fix the front axle shaft that's spewing grease out of das boot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete M Posted August 28, 2019 Author Share Posted August 28, 2019 as with all overly complicated plans, I've had to shuffle some things around. the powwow dates are circled in red. in addition, with any luck I'll be at the junkyards in denver for a day or 2 if anyone has time off and wants to lend a hand pulling KJ parts. and I still don't have the Durango back, but the part is theoretically supposed to get to the dealership today soooo.....
