You know me, I will do everything I can for those who are coming this way first.

 

The really good part is that since is happening in my town, I know a lot of Wichita Downtown Development people, so, I bet I can pull some strings......

 

We'll see what I can work out.

Pigeon Forge this year will be held July 1-3 or 4 this year in Pigeon Forge, TN.

 

From your location, I don't think you will want to come to Kansas first though, although you are certainly welcome to.

 

For those that are coming, perhaps we should kick around some dates that would work for you guys. I'm shooting to arrive in PF sometime on Friday, July 1, so say meet in Wichita Wednesday, June 30?

 

Sound good?

If I can swing it I'm planning to make a stop in denver. Then on to witchita. Then PF. So I'll be bringing a convoy to Tims place.

 

Count me in unless the SQ craps out on me.

That would be cool. Lets bum rush robertos house lol. Also at the end of july I may be making a road trip to seattle so I will be passing right through portland. We should get together then as well. It's been awhile since I've been in portland.

 

Hopefully I'll be MPI before PF. The clock is ticking. I should make that a priority.

You? Seriously?

 

You're coming to my place after all the crap I have fed you this last year? Don't get me wrong, you'er welcome to, but maybe I figured you wrong, LOL.

 

I will add your name to the list when get back home to use my home account and my home computer.

Tim, I posted in your other thread (the making plans one), and mentioned that if anyone from IN, IL, MI, or OH wanted to caravan down, I'm down with that. Like you said, it's always nice to have back up on a road trip...

Tim,

 

Can't really see heading out to KS to backtrack to TN.. I'm about 1 1/2 hours north of Indianapolis (I used to live in Manhattan, KS, though.. loved it there)... now if there was a way to plan the route where my caravan and yours could meet up in either KY or in TN before you hit PF, then we could all roll in with numbers, then THAT, I do believe, would be EPIC.
