Hey Garc, PQ, and Others....
I signed up yesterday for the Fbody Gathering... I'm working on finding out if the wife can or wants to go... End of the School Year is a busy time for her... But, I'm hoping to make it... Whether I trailer my car or drive it is yet to be determined... If someone along the way is game, I might trailer it and park the truck and trailer at someones house and drive along from say Mobile or Pensacola area... Any volunteers for some driveway space... I'm looking forward to seeing some of you for the first time and catching up with others...

 It'll fit in my driveway I'm sure. Bonnies Vette can keep it company while we're gone. Bonnie can't make it this year because she has a photoshoot thing that she already bought and bought plane tickets for. Of course it's still 4 and a half hours from my house. LOL

PQ, Thank You for the Offer... Hope you don't mind a dodge being parked there....I need to google the distance difference between going ten anbd 20... I bet it's less than a hundred miles...
I may seriously take you up on that... I can handle 4.5 hours, but driving Brandi 18 hours or more at a stretch right now isn't something I care to do... I may by then be fine with it... But we'll see... Thank You for the offer, though that means I have to drive through Houston, Lake Charles, Baton Rouge... yeechhh...

Got you added! I may be able to help you out with some parking space but I won't know til we get closer! I'm about 1 hour from the gathering. 70 acres of land...I'm fairly sure we could find a spot, just gotta keep it away from the horses.

If someone near 20 in Mississippi or Alabama has some space they might be willing to offer up... And Thank You for the offer... I could actually go as far as Jackson Miss and then head SE to Mobile and it only adds about 50 to 60 miles to the entire trip... and by passes all the nasty traffic areas...

Ok, I'll keep that in mind... I may try to get up there for the entire thing since it will be my first.. and a three day parking lot party is hard to imagine... I'm really looking forward to this...
