I'm in. I have to work on the 8th, but I'll go to work packed up and ready to leave for Truckhaven. I'll probably get there in time for dinner and the 3rd round of Tequila. | ||

Ah, sh ...oot. Ya just had to mention the "T" word. Holy moly, I got some committments I need to get out of. Going to have to move heaven and earth. Man, I will. Especially if "The Fox Whisperer" is going to be there (he's the king, but I'm the queen, LOL). Anyone check what kind of moon we're going to have? Just guessing ... maybe only a half? Kim nothing more beautiful than a full moon in TH. (that way I don't need a flashlight, LOL) | ||

I'll be out in Hemet stopping the evil Hun that weekend. Wave as you pass the Jack Rabbit Trails exit on the 60. Around 11AM or so, the ground charges should be cooking off... Maybe you'll see me on the drive home on Sunday. It's not hard to miss a IIA holding up traffic West bound. Jeff | ||

Jack, Im in poway are you going through Ramona ie 78 to s22? Im not sure my hummer will make it that far,kinda worried.Watch for me on the side of the road.Seriously Ive never been there,whats your route? | ||
| Jack Quinlan (Jsq) Member Username: Jsq Post Number: 160 Registered: 10-2002 |
I don't know if it would be different for truckhaven (i've never been before), but I always go to borrego through escondido past lake henshaw and through Ranchita. Then down the mountain into Borrego Springs. I'd assume I'd just go the same way and keep heading east past ocotillo. | ||

| Ho Chung (Thediscoho) Moderator Username: Thediscoho Post Number: 39 Registered: 02-2002 |

| Brian Adams (Badams) New Member Username: Badams Post Number: 2 Registered: 02-2003 |
Maybe we will run into a really narrow canyon that dead-ends. It would be interesting to watch the H2 try maneuver around ... > | ||
| Kim S (Roverine) Future Status 2 Username: Roverine Post Number: 416 Registered: 03-2002 |
Well, lets see how my DS2 maneuvers for that matter ... er, I'm driving the family wagon, both sway bars connected, small AT tires, and let's just say I don't have any testicles, LOL ... Hey it's all in fun. | ||
| Steve Cooper (Scrover) Member Username: Scrover Post Number: 200 Registered: 09-2002 |
No problem Kim, just get a set of these for the Disco and all will be OK. http://www.okoffroad.com/stuff-nutz.htm | ||
| Kim S (Roverine) Future Status 2 Username: Roverine Post Number: 417 Registered: 03-2002 |
Steve, LOL!!! Well, with that big back end on the D2, (and my driving, LOL) I think my Disco might get "castrated" within the first hour, LOL! | ||
| Ken Tipton (Irish_nv) Member Username: Irish_nv Post Number: 79 Registered: 10-2002 |
So is there a head count of people leaving from O.C. near the El Toro Y. I will be. Ken | ||
| Ho Chung (Thediscoho) Moderator Username: Thediscoho Post Number: 44 Registered: 02-2002 |
so far i see 7 vehicles. i am still hoping kevin can get some more H2 guys to come join the fun. ---------- Ho Chung | ||
| Kim S (Roverine) Senior Member Username: Roverine Post Number: 421 Registered: 03-2002 |
Well, not sure what the deal is yet for me - I injured my knee and have been hobbling around for almost 2 weeks now. I'm on my way now to see how soon I can get it repaired (I don't think major, just orthoscopic). So ... if I do show, I'll be limited to say the least. If I can't, I'll send some goodies for all of you out with someone from the OC crew. | ||

Im still in.Ill be leaving around 10:30 I guess and going 67 to 78 to 86 it looks like. Nothing so far from any H2 guys yet so I might be the lone ranger.So how about it,any H2's out there?Im into going out with anyone if they are leaving around that time and from the San Diego area.Let me know | ||
| Michael Villanueva (Michael) Senior Member Username: Michael Post Number: 271 Registered: 02-2002 |
Kim You do not need your knee -- this is not Easter Pilgrimage; you just need your feet. You planning on being there on Sunday? | ||
| Blue (Bluegill) Senior Member Username: Bluegill Post Number: 1973 Registered: 02-2002 |

| Mike J. (Mudd) Member Username: Mudd Post Number: 78 Registered: 02-2002 |
Where is the meeting spot? Gps Coordinates? I'm hoping to get my repairs done by then and would like to join also. Leaving from SD beach area mid afternoonish. Hey Kim, I think you want "Arthroscopic" if you need a repair. Have you been icing your knee? Mike J. | ||
| Kim S (Roverine) Senior Member Username: Roverine Post Number: 423 Registered: 03-2002 |
LOL, damn it ... I just have to go ... but I'm telling you, it's against good judgment (Kyle, I just can't get off the gum!). hehe, expect a limp, but I'll try to be there ... (life's too short ... ) LOL! | ||
| Steve Cooper (Scrover) Member Username: Scrover Post Number: 208 Registered: 09-2002 |
The Torrance contingent will be leaving around 11am Sat. - should be in TH by 2pm - camping Sat. night. I can't wait to put these Scorpion mounts to the test and Kim, can you spell V I C O D I N ? (my tribute to Mr. Rogers) | ||
| Michael Villanueva (IronChefAir) (Michael) Senior Member Username: Michael Post Number: 272 Registered: 02-2002 |
Well, if I can get released from work by Saturday late afternoon (which I doubt), *and* x-y-z falls into place (which I doubt), I would like to imagine that I would be there late Saturday night. Ho: Save me a bite to eat? | ||
| Ho Chung (Thediscoho) Moderator Username: Thediscoho Post Number: 47 Registered: 02-2002 |
ok, meeting place.... from HWY86, head west on "Marina Drive North" follow the asphalt road until it ends, you will see that the road goes between the 2 little hills. let's meet there. by the 2 little hills. 2PM. whoever arrives there first, make sure to be waiting on a spot that is easily visible from that dirt road. http://www.discoweb.org/truckhavenh2/map.jpg ---------- Ho Chung | ||

Ho, any idea how many trucks to expect? BTY very cool pictures of TH. Is that your yellow LR? | ||
| Ho Chung (Thediscoho) Moderator Username: Thediscoho Post Number: 56 Registered: 02-2002 |
so far seems like it'll be a H2 surrounded by about 6 land rovers. yeah, i got the twinkie. ---------- Ho Chung | ||
| Ken Tipton (Irish_nv) Member Username: Irish_nv Post Number: 83 Registered: 10-2002 |
as far as supplies should we bring food for ourselves, or enough for everybody and have a big cookout. I here Ho likes to cook. | ||
| Craig Kobayashi (Koby) Senior Member Username: Koby Post Number: 278 Registered: 02-2002 |
Ken- I'm planning on bringing my own food. With this type of event that is largely unplanned, it's best to fend for one's self. If you'd like to bring some extra to share, that's fine too. | ||
| Ho Chung (Thediscoho) Moderator Username: Thediscoho Post Number: 58 Registered: 02-2002 |
yeah, just bring your own stuff. i am not sure if i will cook. hell, i don't even know how to cook. all i do is the cave man thing. just throw stuff on the fire. and let's not get distracted here, H2 is what's for dinner.  ---------- Ho Chung | ||
| Ho Chung (Thediscoho) Moderator Username: Thediscoho Post Number: 59 Registered: 02-2002 |
you know, on second thoughts... it might be the other way around. LOL hope you dont' mind twinkie for dinner. ---------- Ho Chung | ||
| Jay Allen (Ironchefsea) New Member Username: Ironchefsea Post Number: 3 Registered: 02-2003 |
Iron chef Sea's Cantina will be serving shrimp cocktails, margaritas, and shots over agavero on Saturday night... | ||
| Kevin Bridges (Craniac) Member Username: Craniac Post Number: 45 Registered: 02-2003 |
All I want to know is if there is going to be a way to brew coffee. And Ho H2 sounds kinda tuff for dinner if you know what I mean. Just remember,keep the trails wide!!!! | ||
| Peter Matusov (Pmatusov) Senior Member Username: Pmatusov Post Number: 505 Registered: 09-2002 |
what are you talking about, Kevin? how wide do you want it to be? truckhaven is the vastest expanse of nothing after Edwards AFB next goes SW AZ and NM... peter | ||
| Kevin Bridges (Craniac) Member Username: Craniac Post Number: 46 Registered: 02-2003 |
That might be wide enough.Remember it's an H2 | ||
| Steve Cooper (Scrover) Member Username: Scrover Post Number: 221 Registered: 09-2002 |
There's always a way to brew coffee, I'm sure the H2 manifold get just as hot as a Rovers! See ya Saturday.. | ||
| Craig Kobayashi (Koby) Senior Member Username: Koby Post Number: 280 Registered: 02-2002 |
Steve, I'm bringing my propane stove. Not as hot as a Rover hood, but much more convenient, and doesn't scratch the paint. LOL | ||

We're going. I'm still limited with the leg problem, however all will be fine (i.e. object is no burdens for myself or others). We'll see how far our activities go . - No kids with Greg & I this time. Not yet sure of departure & arrival time Sat. ... Are you setting up camp first, or wheeling first? Have plans been set yet for which spot to set camp? (i.e. will it be the usual, or not?) | ||
| Ho Chung (Thediscoho) Moderator Username: Thediscoho Post Number: 61 Registered: 02-2002 |
let's meet near the 2 "moguls"... near where corva sets up their main camp... at about 2PM. then we can go play here and there, and before sundown, we set camp. we'll camp at "uno palm" area. if it's taken like last time, we can go to "no palms." we'll be on CB channel 4. my cell phone works there sometimes: 213-400-0838 ---------- Ho Chung | ||
