Would you consider setting up some sort of FF day at your place where we all get to go onto a field trip to this magic wonder yard???? Please???

Sure... We have a large pavilion with lots of picnic tables and electric
and lots of room for parking and camping. I'll let you-all pick a date.
I'm retired and anytime is good for me... But I like it outside when it's
warm...

I would totally be down for it. But, #2 is coming mid july so this year may be a stretch.

If the owners of that junkyard were smart they could make it like sams club and charge a fee to belong, just so you could enter and haul home lots of crap that you need but never use. I know that's what i do when i go up to tabbit's junk yard.

How far are you from Rausch creek offroad park? Joliet PA.

sandhills · February 06, 2018, 12:44:54 PM

1200 miles for me on I80, I hates I80 like MM hates sweetgum. Just throwing it out there but if this is indeed going to happen maybe have it coincide (sort of) with the pig roast and a lot of members could kill to birds with one stone? Just a thought? Maybe by then I'll win the lottery, I'd love to attend both :D.

Never heard of Joliet PA... Lookin at the map I would say only 30-40 miles.
Sure must be a very small town.

Crusarius · February 06, 2018, 01:08:07 PM

You can easy loose your tools at Harrys. Don't forget where you put them

Al_Smith · February 06, 2018, 09:23:07 PM

I 80 isn't that bad .A lot better than I 70 IMO .I took it 3 years ago to go to "mile high " ,Denver .Between it and I 75 they must have cornered the market on orange barrels not to mention concrete barriers .

sandhills · February 06, 2018, 09:27:49 PM

Yeah Al, it's just the other drivers and bumper to bumper at 80 mph that bothers me ;), give me a good old county road anyday.

Chuck White · February 06, 2018, 09:53:47 PM

Me too, Pat!

I don't like anything over 70MPH!

Al_Smith · February 07, 2018, 04:53:09 AM

Get up on I -95 near Boston or go through Chicago or Atlanta sometime during rush hour if you want to see maniac drivers .That said I'm not so found of hustle and bustle myself .

Al_Smith · February 07, 2018, 05:02:11 AM

In the last 3 1/2 years I've been on I-80,I 75 and I 95 and I don't think there is an interstate highway in this country that isn't under some kind of construction .I wonder if it's ever going to be finished.I will say this though certain improvements such as adding extra lanes has improved the traffic flow .Never the less I try to bypass Atlanta still .

Chuck White · February 07, 2018, 07:29:23 AM

When I used to travel a lot, I would at times, pull off of the Interstate and ride the County and Town roads for a while, just to get away from it for a while!
