Then back to camp to watch Drew pull his rear end in sub zero temps. 

That's a memory-maker right there! 

I've updated the itinerary based on people's votes. Looks like a busy schedule! Please don't forget to send me an email once you've decided you're going to go and if you're on the fence, what do you need to be convinced? This thing is fun!

Like Eric said, this trip is a great time. If you have never done it and are on the fence.... make it happen. I have been to 4 Fall Classics and hate it every time I can not make it out. And for those of you that don't know, my usual commute to the Classic is 2400 miles (each way) and I even made it out from Southern Florida one year (3200 miles a direction)  .... Yea, it was air miles, but well worth the trip... 

Hopefully see you all next year,

Zig

I'll be there, Paul Leapaldt, Bend, 87 Samurai, traveling solo

Looks like Greg Mickelson and I will be going in my sidekick if there's still room. Our plan is to leave Thursday, maybe with Davey, maybe a bit earlier. I would vote for the diner sat night, gotta love running water and real toilets, the food is just an added bonus :0). If there is a potluck I can do the crock pot again, if it's colaberation chili I can bring a contribution. As long as there is lots of snow and exploring it's all good!!!!!  Hope to see you all there!!!

Hi Drew - Glad to have you come along! I'll be heading over mid-Thursday so if you want to hook up for a convoy, PM me... We're going to do the chili potluck (check the first post in thread; it gets updated with new info) so please bring a can of delicious or semi-delicious chili.
