    Don't know yet but would love to, it's a long drive for one day but if I could be gone two days I could probably pull it off. I just can't buy any more saws at this one. I ended up with three more saws at the last G2G. Bought a stihl 011 for Guido and an 036 and quake from Dex

    I am quite proud of myself for not buying anymore saws at the G2G. As you guys saw, I had plenty of crap already to worry about..... :emb:

    I'm out. :( I don't wanna be, but I am. Another week long road trip to SoCal the week prior...those are pretty hard on me and especially hard on the family. Have fun and be good.

    We will need to have more than two people to make this happen.

    It's still early, but I would tend to agree. Maybe it's easier to have one where so many members live like Ohio.

    I think today was when MM thought he would know. I thought there was some interest from Pete and Scotty, but I haven't heard anything since we set the date. It seems Sinngetreu will be unable to get away from his duties for the weekend as well.

    4 weeks is too short of a notice for most people.

    My 3 cents (inflation)

    I concur. I was hoping for August, but we are doing what works between mine and Crackers schedule. If we get another 4 guys that can make it I will feel a lot better. Then let the maybes pile up.

    It is short notice, but it would be a good date. If we had to move it later on due to conflicts, I would be willing to consider if enough members would commit.

    Patience boys. I would see how this week goes before making drastic changes. Dex had expressed interest and possibly Hedgerow..... 3-4 weeks is kinda short notice, remember we started planning the Ohio g2g right after the site was launched back in Sept/Oct. we tossed around some dates back then that we're only 3/4 weeks out and most could not make it. Hence we pushed it out, talked it up all winter....... ;)

    Even if this date does not work out, with all the buzz left over from the OH g2g, I think you'll get something together no problem in the future.

    I've been to several charity cuts & a GTG in Iowa this spring & will have to focus on getting things done at home this summer so I won't be able to make one in June, However later on this fall like in September or October, I would be happy to put it on the calendar.

    I would be interested but 4 weeks is to short notice. As MM said we started planning Ohio way back on the proboards site before we upgraded servers to this place. It defiantly takes time to plane it out.

    Ya we threw out a lot of dates and the short. Price dates didn't work for most people.

    I don't go back to work until Tues (off for 11 days :))

    We had 7 solid months to plan our GTG.

    I don't know if Jrsdws has seen this. He is 40 min south of Chicago and he has several killer saws now. He would make a great attendee. :thumbs:

    I will know Tues evening. If I can get Friday off? I will be there. But being the Summer, our vacation schedule is pretty much locked up. I need to schedule my vacation I'm January. I leave 7 loose floaters. But they are hard to fit in June-Aug.

    I'll be there almost for certain!! I'll probably only be able to drive up for the day, though. I have a litter of 11 pups on the ground and that's the weekend they can start going to their new homes, so that could bite me in the A$$ but I'm hoping not.
