Event Coverage HERSHEY! right around the corner

Will you be rowing or driving to the flea market?

 

Clark, on sight there's a killer ham, egg, and cheese on a bagel out of a beat up truck in the green field. But that's a long walk from your spot.

 

Might have to row. The creek WAS damned near to my front door last Friday.

 

Creek? That may be a river in some parts of the country, just how high/deep was the water?

 

I THINK the official measurement was 26.8 at Hershey, flood at 7. It got awfully angry!!

 

Sorry if I missed it somewhere else in this post, but I imagine the Union Canal House has to be out of commission?

They took 10 out the window of the second floor. It's trashed.

 

Hell, last year we brought the camping stove but forgot a fryin pan so link sausages cooked on a screwdriver over an open flame.....Borrowed a tin plate from the neighbors and cooked the eggs...... Well, beats the time we had hot dogs with a propane torch .

RCL 28/29 Rest up or dump your treasure....

Thanks for the updates and info from youse guys in the area. I hear they are working around the clock........

 

We still have NAt'l Guard close by, so I guess we are still in a state of emergency. The houses that I've seen are really screwed. Even one that is only about 6 months old, built to fed. specs for a flood plain. Many that have been flooded several times in my lifetime gave up the fight this time. All roads that would effect you guys have been repaired. They even had a motorhome show at the Giant Center this week. They used the day parking lot across from the Giant Center for spectaors, it turned brown. If you remember it was under for several days.

 

Of the Union Canal House? Now that makes me sad, that was always our Saturday night-end of Hershey spot.

That was the first place I thought of when I heard about all this flooding.

 

I saw it the day of the floods, pretty bad. Found a pic on google.

 

Hay Bob, those hip boots may not be enough

 

Brocolli cheese pizza, keep thinking about it all day today. The guy at the base of the walkway stairs in the Chocolate field makes the best pizza at the Hershey swap meet.

 

great barbecue pit in the center of the chocolate field!

 

Any relays heading to Chicago after Hershey?

I need a starter from someone attending Hershey.

 

I'm coming to Chicago the weekend after Hershey so get Jocko (theHIGHLANDER: GBC 17-22) to bring it home and take it to work the next day, we'll make arrangements for me to get it from him then I'll bring it with me the weekend of Oct 13th-16th.

 

Anyone need any parts hauled up from the south?...rather not have to haul a big, heavy, complete car...but maybe a body, frame, or something?


I’m thinking about going...not sure though...considering different options right now..

Might make a difference if I could haul something to pay for some of the expenses of the trip.?

 

This is my 39th year at Hershey and it is still the best week of the year for me.

 

We'll be runnin' and buyin' on thursday

 

Wish i could go, maybe next year !

 

Has anyone looked at what RM has for the auction? The Otto is one of two known to exist. A local donated the other to the AACA museum, it's completely original, been in his family since new. I can taste the pizza already. And the crusty almonds. And the ham,egg and cheese on a bagel.

 

Yea, I NEED to see that.

 

Great vedio of that steamer when it was in England, I think it is on the RM site. They think it will bring two REAL large.

 

Well, It worked because this riff raff won't be there either. I'd rather look at rust anyway.....

Well, it rained pretty good last few days and the creek's pissed off again. It swallowed up a guy tonight, not sure if he's OK or not. Fire trucks everywhere and passed the ambulance taking him to the Med Center. A few roads are closed again, some of the same houses may have more water. I would NOT park in the day lots!

 

So I guess the High Ground Parking and DB Shuttle may be open for business for reserved preregistered parking, right?
