    From your place it's about 8 hrs?

    What time are you leaving? You going out Friday night?

    My vacation day was denied. So unless I go solo on Friday, I am out. I have several things I need to get done that weekend (original plans for taking it off). But the wife gave me permission to go if I wanted to. So I had to give it a go..

    I need to enclose the back porch (5 pieces I put up every winter to enclose 30' of the 40' of back porch), finish moving my last half cord of wood to the house, move 3 more ton of pellets downstairs, and turn my Solo 665 into a Solo 681 :dex:

    I hope ya'll have fun. I've watched a fair amount of videos from past GTG's at Matt's. This is definitely on the list for next year! Wiggs is another one I want to hit up.. And Bob's (Spike60), and ..... The list goes on and on!!
