OK, even though Devin & I did go on the Fall Drive to Madison, IN last year, I still consider us "new" to these roadtrips. So what else should we be bringing? Maybe some kind of snacks or beverages for Saturday evening? We just want to make sure we can contribute to our festivities as well.

Here are a few ideas for everyone (with a couple of recaps):
MM Shirts
FRS Radios
Beverage of your choice
Maybe a snack to share on Friday or Saturday night
Allergy medication (I forgot this once and we are heading south!)
CAMERAS/chargers/batteries/memory cards/laptops?
Comfortable walking shoes
Detailing stuff
Maybe an umbrella? It might rain, though temps should be in the 70s :-(

Anything else?

I'm looking forward to our road trip! See you SOON!!

Phil goes everywhere with us. He may have to retire though--so we can get his handicapped brother to go with us. (Same as Phill, with wheels)

That just about covers it!! Thanks Rich!

That just about covers it!! Thanks Rich!

If it rains, I'm going to want to remember to keep a squeegee (George had a good one last fall) inside the car to wipe down the trunk before opening it up, so the water doesn't all run onto our stuff inside.

Just a suggestion to others.

Jello and I will be in Indy at 4PM or earlier. Headed to the hotel first to hook up with Kevin. Then to Bruces?

Thank you so much for taking care of this for us, Kathy. Sounds like this is going to be another fun get together.

Can't wait to show off my new powdercoated "accessories" that Bruce is taking care of for me tomorrow.

 

[rleonard]

Car washed, intake manifold polished, and Rain-X applied. We'll need it this weekend.

I should probably pack sometime....

I know you MM's will have a really great time. I am still trying to get something started on this end of the country so we can make these fun trips. I wish we could be with you kinda envy the fact that you all live so close to one another to enjoy the friendships that will sprout from these outings. We always enjoy the picures of your adventures please continue to post them so we can enjoy what you do together and just have FUN.
