Devin and I are really looking forward to this trip next week. I'm looking forward to some quality father/son time with Devin as well. My wife and I are taking my XLR up to Door County next week for a few days for our 20th Anniversary, then one day after we get back, Devin & I head for Indiana. Some nice cruizin' time in my XLR, I'm really looking forward to it.

Is anyone going to try the Zipline Tour? We'd like to give it a try, but we don't want to spend too much time away from "the group", I'd like to hang out with you all and get to know what sounds like a pretty fun group.

I don't think Kathy and I will be able to do the Zipline, but I hope the people that want to get to do it.

We are really looking forward to meeting you and your son. I think there should be plenty to do. There will be plenty of good driving as well.

You are such a brat. DUH!!!
Kris said she didn't know if you guys could meet for dinner because you would be too busy packing up all her coats in Daisy.

I will check with Kevin and pm you and let you know what time we plan to be there. We can start making plans on meeting for dinner with those who want to on Friday. Looking forward to meeting you and Deb.

It doesn't look like any of us will have time for the zipline. Plus they seem a bit socialistic policy. Perhaps someone would want to come out and try it. The way their rlules are, we'd probably have to pay for them--kinda like the health care plan.

Marion & I will probably be in by 5:30-6:00 Indy time. Talked to Bruce and we'll probably go for dinner about 6:30-7:00pm.

Sounds like a plan. As we get closer to Friday, we can all confirm plans.

Looks like we will hang with the gang (seeing a chance of rain, don't want to risk a "raincheck within season" - don't know when we'd get to get down there before the winter). Looking forward to the trip!

Being a newbie, is there anything I'd need to bring (other than what we need for the overnight trip)? :dunno:

Haha, with that crowd??? A BIG cooler! :laugh:

If you have FRS radios bring them along so we can hopefully stay in contact on the drives. You may want to bring some "off road" clothes and shoes for hiking in Clifty Falls State Park. I'm working on the driving directions for both days and hope to have all of that done tonight. We're really looking forward to meeting you and your son. See you on Saturday.
