I'm there. It'll be my first opportunity to try out my new Detroit and True Trak set up. The only thing that worries me is that I won't have sliders on by then. | ||

Where is Gilmer? | ||
| Trey & Melissa Burns (T_burns) New Member Username: T_burns Post Number: 29 Registered: 02-2004 |
Gilmer is NE Texas near Longview. I would guess about an 1 1/2 hrs. east of Dallas. About 30 -45 min. from the LA. boarder. http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp?country=US&countryid=250&addtohistory=&addr ess=&city=gilmer&state=tx&zipcode=&submit=Get+Map | ||

I just checked the Texas Rover Website and it looks like there are almost 60 people signed up for this event. Guys, let's talk this up and see if we can get 100 Rovers there. That would be awesome. | ||

I bite if my partner gets me lost. ;) I'm sure you will have no problems finding a partner, Melissa. | ||

Brett- "Is everyone camping?" Yes, we plan to camp. Hopefully, the weather will cooperate. It will be a blast! | ||

We plan on camping with the kids. It truly is going to be fun. | ||

I'm out of room. My 14 year old daughter has invited several of her friends. My rig is packed. We plan to do the camping thing. We're arriving on Friday night. I'm suppose to be a "dealer" in the poker run. Sorry I can't give you guys any coordinates but if you come up on a rig with a bunch of teenage girls hanging out it's probably me. I'm looking forward to meeting everyone and putting faces to names. The count is still at 59. Let's talk this up and get it up to 100. | ||
