    Matt....second the question about leaving Tues night. If thats the case I need to notify VIR 72 hours ahead of time that we won't need the room for a 3rd night. I'm OK either way but my experience is that we are all mostly pretty tired after two days on the track! But then...I'm an old guy!!!

    Absolutley on splitting the garage! (Last time I was there we were the only ones that had a garage...and they are all open...that is, there are probably 6 garages all adjoining and we spread out a bit without a problem.)

    About the Trailer...

    NAMES OF PEOPLE GOING
    in the RV
    MATT
    DAVE
    KIM
    DAN
    KEV
    RICHEY
    I am renting a nice 24 footer from a friend for $250.00. The way I see it is that the 5 of us each kick in $50.00 and Matt gets his share for free! After all, its his Motorhome and it seems like the least we can offer.

    Agreed???

    I think that originally Matt was talking about leaving on Tuesday night so that we could be back Wednesday a.m. rather than later in the day. Either way (from what I understood anyway) we will be back sometime on Wednesday.

    My preference is to leave Tuesday night, But my preference is not strong enough to want to force the group to leave before they are ready,
    Either Way Would work, we have our suite for 2 Nights (sun-Mon) If worse comes to worse the Winnie is like a big suite on wheels.

    Re: VIR Roll Call

    YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST

    Sorry I was being grumpy earlier

    Saturday (3/22): We'll be packing up everything at Matt's place and staying the night. Matt...what time works for you for people to start arriving?
    Anytime after noon

    My husband is an awesome cook...if you guys would like he could put on a BBQ or something for us that night. Let me know.
    I was thinking the same thing. I can set up either inside Italian (chicken parm) or out for BBQ (chicken and burgers) or both

    Sunday (3/23): Depart (its a 12+/- hour drive so I was thinking 4 - 430 departure ) the crack of dawn for VIR!!! Hopefully arriving at VIR while the sun is still up. Dave, Carlton and myself are splitting a suite and I believe a garage as well. I'm assuming that the rest of the RVers will be staying in the RV? (might just be me)

    Monday/Tuesday (3/24 3/25): VIR!!! VIR!!! VIR!!!

    Wednesday (3/26): Arrive home. Matt...are you still planning on leaving Tuesday night?
    Yea The Winnie crew should be ready to leave TUES EVE I would also like to get a full day of events done on Wednesday.

    Hey everyone on the Trailer. Be sure to bring your own tie down straps and chocks. The trailer has two rows of hooks running the length of the trailer but Gilly isn't providing the straps.

    What type of chocks do we need, and more importantly, do we actually NEED them?

    Hahah you've obviously never met THE dollar bill yet. You dont WANT to meet me early in the morning, and I grew up sleeping in bars, trust me, a roller coaster is nothing. Just wanted to make sure it wasnt against the Winnie courtesy codes or anything.

    Re: VIR Roll Call

    There's really only a couple of Winnie courtesy rules

    keep driver awake
    keep driver fed
    keep driver hydrated
    keep driver entertained
    try not to break driver's balls too much
