Looks like I\'m leaving around 4p, driving down I-81, and hotel-ing it with the wife.  I\'ll see you guys Saturday morning!

If anyone else is going the same way, let me know...

Most likely.  Unless we drive back, but I doubt that.  If anyone is wheeling Sunday morning, may try that too.

New Knuckle installed and packing up...
My winch is smoked, so not sure how crazy I will get this trip.  
Should still be a good time...

Good weekend!  Short than I expected but good anyway!  Trip down I-81 was horrible with traffic and construction, added 2 hours to the drive.  The cabin at the campground we rented was a little scary, won\'t be staying there again.  Wheeling on Saturday was great!  Challenged my Heep and I and tested every skid plate I have.  Got to see some awesome hardcore action on the \"Otters\" by everyone else!  Very cool!

Ended up finishing off that bent lower link (aka now 2 pieces instead of 1) and a rusty brake line that failed late in the day.  Limped back to camp and into the trailer.  We said our \"fairwells\" and headed home.

Thanks again to Mike, Ryan and Liz, Nick, Keith, Chris for your help, encouragement, spotting, towing, air, and everything else.  You guys are what makes it a great weekend!
