    Kansas HAMB-b-que.

    Saturday April 29th, afternoon sometime to o dark thirty.

    Burgers, dogs, potato salad, sodapop, surf tunes and more…

    My place- Abilene KANSAS.


    Let me know who all can make it. Bring your hotrod, bring your family, and bring your dog. I have a pretty big yard, lots of shade and a play set for the kids. Heck if you want to pitch a tent or bring the RV you can spend the night.

    I hope all of us in Kansas can make it, and guys from surrounding states also (Nebraska, Oklahoma, Missouri and Colorado for the geographically challenged). I am about 2-½ hrs from Kansas City and about 1 ½ from Wichita.

    What say you?

    Spread the word.
     
  2. I'm in! Sounds like a good time!

    It's at the end of the Chisolm Trail.

    It's where Wild Bill Hickok was city marshall.

    It's where Dwight D. Eisenhower is from.

    It's straight west of Kansas City on I-70, and North of Wichita on K-15.

    Listen to you, Jay, all full of Abilene Pride!

    Maybe I'll make the drive, although I don't exactly reside in a SURROUNDING state. Does that mean I'm not invited?

    I didn't want to inundate everyone with all the wonderful attractions...Like the Smokey Valley Railroad, and Old Abilene Town....
     
  14. I'm a maybe, have to see what is going on that weekend.

    Also, don't forget the wonderful, The Telephone Museum, Seeyle Mansion, and Kirby Mansion...I grew up just down the road, Herington.

    I always figured the song was about Abilene [Texas] since George Hamilton IV
    also had a hit with the song "Ft Worth, Dallas or Houston" who knows? :D

    "Abilene" was written by John D. Loudermilk who's a few interesting jobs:
    sign painter, telegraph deliverer
    window dresser, bulldozer operator
    commercial artist, janitor, truck driver,
    shoe shine boy, paper boy, carpenter's helper, department-store clerk, steam-shovel oiler, tobacco farmer, factory worker, hosiery-mill worker, lifeguard, cotton-gin worker, door-to-door Bible salesman, television cameraman, photographer, part-time vendor at football games.

    Hey everyone, I need to change the date of the HAMB cookout to the following Saturday, May 6th. My daughter's dance recital rehearsal and recital are April 29th. My apologies for changing the date, I hope everyone can still make it.

    now i am definitely not coming.

    hope you have a good turnout.

    ...just remember that his World (in)Famous potato salad is that because it never lets you forget that you have eaten it...

    Hey everyone, in the other post I found out the Stray Kat 500 is in Dewey OK on May 6th, so that's a huge conflict.

    What about Saturday April 22nd?

    Hey Nosurf,

    Thanks for changing the date, it was going to be tough for me to make it on
    May 6. Put me on the list, Kroeb and I will be there. Will you post the
    directions or can I just follow the Hot Rods and Kustoms.

    Happy Trails,

    Mick
