2gn Fall Meet 2011
I will tell you what tho ... I got one hell of a scare going down to Purgatory yesterday.
I went to sutton to buy those Enkei rims ... then figured I might as well check for a good spot up there. So I am driving down the road and I came around the corner (doing about 25 in a 20) and theres a Statie sitting sideways in the road ... HOLY CRAP ... so he starts backing up into a spot on the side of the road ... and whats sitting behind him ... 7 more with an SUV K-9 unit ... WTF... so I SLOWLY putted along past them ... lol. I managed to see them all get out of the vehicles and take the dogs (like 5 of them) and head into the woods. About 15 minutes later they came out ... got in the cars and went about an 1/8 mile up the road and went back into the woods (at another spot I was gonna take a picture) ...
Alls I can say is ... thank god I wasnt flying down that road ... lol

Ok I have a couple pics of the parking lot at the diner (sry they are crappy ... after all it is raining today).
I talked with the owner today and he said he would love to do something like that for us. He is going to email me a list of ideas he would do for food ... and we can discuss it from there. I figure a SATURDAY afternoon would be nice. He closes about 2 so if we met there for 3:30 it would give him time to set up and make whatever he sets for a list. It would be just for us ... and who we bring ... so no outside customers ... I like that.
I said a Saturday because he works til 2 on sundays then does his food prep for the week and he has mondays off so I dont want to ruin his weekend time since he is willing to do this for us.
If this sounds good let me know and I will work on it ...

Either place works for me. I did a quick mapsearch and both places are about 1 1/2 hrs away from me which is nothing. Let me know.

I just talked with him tonight ... since we were all without power until tuesday night from that damn storm. He has a list of things he can make for us .. I will try to pick it up tomorrow and we can try to set a date. I know I would like to get it done in the next couple weeks before we end up with another snow storm.
