its on... Louver Dude is going to tow the grill behind his 53, and we're going to set up around 4pm to get the chow cooked...


Vagabonds have done this since '05, and its a great way to meet an mingle. we always have a blast doing it, and i'm looking forward to doing it again after a one year personal hiatus last year.

so, Vagabond brothers... i need you to step up and lend your usual helping hand.

we need some condiments, couple sides maybe, some chips... napkins, plates and some cheap plastic flatware.

pipe up! :D

Hell, Jim, as long as Kim makes it and not you, I'll eat it.

And as an FYI, Sam's Club is just across the parking lot, anyone who is a member can utilize is for groceries, booze, etc.

anybody up for some homemade salsa?? I can bring some that I make. Or is that already covered? If so, hot or mild or both?

We brought condiments last year and will be happy to furnish them again. It's easier to just buy there though. Fiddy, Steve, lets us know if you need anything specific. I know Terry is planning on some kind of sweets.

And she said the tabouli was great so is looking forward to more of that.

See you in about five days!

Don, you're safe, Jim doesn't post on here, I do! He's somewhat computer challanged, so he just works on the cars and I work on the keyboard!:D So, yes, I'll be the one making the tabouli!!

BTW, the trailer cools down to a nice 70 degrees in the evenings, so if it's really hot & humid Friday night, or heaven forbid it rains, we can go inside. We bought party lights this weekend to hang on the awning and I'm thinking about bring a blender for frozen cocktails! With the trailer having cabinets, it makes a perfect place to set up the bar, that is unless Jim fills up the countertop with car crap. I may have to extert my estrogen power...:eek:

its actually "when i hear the word culture, i reach for my Browning"

"kulture" a lot of times gets in the way of the cars... if you want to understand better, check out Church

and, no its not Goering, he was quoting someone else... its from the Hanns Johst play "Schlageter", Act 1, Scene 1. and is uttered by the character Thiemann.

Hey guys! I've got some 6 foot tables if you need them. My direct number is
417-627-7802.

Also, any outside food that doesn't come from our Hotel has to sign a waiver releasing us from liability. That doesn't mean that I still couldn't volunteer to cook for you? Are any of you getting here on Thursday?

rustyford1
08-19-2009, 12:06 PM
The tables would be great if we could snatch a couple of them. Who needs to sign the waiver? I won't get there until friday sometime so I may call you later today to get the details on all that stuff.

Any rep of the group could sign it. I'll arrange for the tables. Just contact me when you get here and we'll get you squared away.
