How far of a drive is this from Atlanta?

From my place to Turner Field, it's 150 miles, right on the head. Depending on traffic, 2 1/2 hours or so.

Hello Rex,

Duke has puppy school from 12 to 1 o’clock on Sat. The 23rd is his 5th class of six. I will see what the weather is like and see if I can head down after his school is 3:30- 4:00 too late to get a meal at your place? Talk to you later. I went to Zmax last night 14 times down the 1/4 mile in 2.5 hrs. Best reaction time was a .004. Had a lot of fun until the rain came in at 8:30pm. Talk to you later.

[slickster]

What, I do not count anymore.....FINE!!!!!

Dido.........

[Bigdogjim]

Hey Rex how big is your pool! :lol:

[SC Cheesehead]

Hey Rex how big is your pool! :lol:

Big enough for me, E-Dubb, and at least four dachshunds... ;) ----> :D

[SC Cheesehead]

What, I do not count anymore.....FINE!!!!!


You can come, but only if you promise NOT to bring any Brenevin... ;)

[Haggis]

You can come, but only if you promise NOT to bring any Brenevin... ;)

Why does it matter what I bring, you won't drink it. How about two boerboels?

[SC Cheesehead]

Why does it matter what I bring, you won't drink it. How about two boerboels?

Yeah, but if you spill any of it in the pool, I'd have to drain the durn thing...

Two boerboels? They'd prolly eat my little guys for a snack...;)

[Shaijack]

Rex I am still trying to figure it out wife tells me I maybe in Florida with grand children that weekend. Still hoping it is another weekend. 10 hour drive just to see you guys. If it works out you want anything form New Orleans? No hookers please!

If you're not bringing hookers, we don't want you there. Hookers FTW :beer:

Seriously though, a couple of willing ladies would be a huge plus, I'm just saying

[Bigdogjim]

Hey Rex if I were there I bet I could put whitecaps in your pool:laugh:

[PonyUP]

Hey Rex if I were there I bet I could put whitecaps in your pool:laugh:

I'll be there and bet I can supply a Baby Ruth or two :lol:

I second the motion on the hookers! No? Okay, I'll settle for a hand grenade and a Lucky Dog w/mustard....nothing tastes better than a Lucky Dog after 4 or 5 hand grenades, IMO; just don't head-butt the hot dog cart at a full sprint like I did... :shake:

On a more serious note...

Hey Rex, is it okay if I bring my kids? I'll be visiting them that weekend and would love to bring them with me. My son (8) cracks me up...says my car is a 'murderer'. :lol: My daughter (6) loves my car and will probably freak out if she were to see everyone else's. They'll both be pleased as punch in your pool. Let me know if it's OK....

Oh heck yeah, bring the kids! They can keep the dogs occupied while the adults are socializing.

[Shaijack]

PonyUP ok I will load up on Fancy Ladies for the trip.
Muffalatas will be in the trunk if I can make it. That was easy.
Anything else? No shrimp this trip Rex. Don/t want to smell up the Blue. If your grilling how about Boudan?

[Haggis]

Not able to make it at this time....have a blast.

Sorry Cheesehead,as much as I'd love to attend,I have to go to a wedding that weekend in Virginia...:(

[IwantmyMMnow!]

Let's just say I'm not on speaking terms with anyone in my immediate family, outside of my mother, at this time...can give details, if desired, when I'm up there...

Well, my brother and I got into it, said my MM is 'just a car', I said 'find another way home then, b*tch'...yada yada yada. More to it than just that, obviously.

Let's just say I'm tired of being treated like a little brother/baby of the family and need to break away from the 'dictatorship'....livin' my life for me, not for them.

OK --Back on point!!!!!

Yahoo! My new tires came in this afternoon--and I just ordered them Wed. at noon--gotta love the internet! and from Atlanta too!

Looks like Me and Ms M will likely be there for both events--with new tires--the unfortunates parts is--I will burn off whats lefts going to work and the lots in between before I put on the newbies for the trip event---OR

I could wait and challenge Rex to a burnout at his house ---a DOOMIE THING!

then go home and put on the new tires--Hummmm---- decisions--discisions!!

[SC Cheesehead]

PM sent with my address to those folks who indicated they're planning to attend this weekend.

How's about we plan meeting up at my place somewhere around 11:00 - 11:30-ish? This'll give everyone a chance to do any clean-up that you'd like to do on your cars, and we can head over to Dickey's a little before 1:00 to get a decent parking spot.

Pool will be all ready to go when we get back. I'll have some refreshments available, plus some good Cajun sausage to go on the grill for anyone still hungry after Dickey's.

(A BIG :thanks: to Shaijack for supplying the Boudin and hot sausages that we'll be enjoying; wadda guy!)

[PonyUP]

Oh man, I can't wait for this. After the two weeks I've had at work, this will be the perfect wind up for my pending vacation next week. I think though with me driving the Marauder to Chicago, I just may bring the Mustang to stretch her legs(TWSS) before putting her in the garage while I'm gone :(

Sausages, cars, and drinks by a pool :D Thats a Win :beer:

[slickster]

What's with all this sausage talk. Am I missing something

[Marauder_Santa]

How many cars are showing up? I'm still a strong Maybe.

[slickster]

5 but maybe up to 8

[dakslim]

I regret to inform that I won't be able to attend this auspicious event...too much dinero spent whilst up in Ct with the kids and grandkids. I need to buy front tires too. Hope you all enjoy Rex's little Weiner...dogs.

[SC Cheesehead]

What's with all this sausage talk. Am I missing something

Barry (Shaijack) from New Orleans was planning to be up this way for the weekend, and was going to join us for th cruise-in and party. As it turned out, his trip was a week earlier than expected, which he felt bad about. So, what does the guy do? Brings up a cooler full of Boudin and hot sausage for the party. We WILL be grillin' after the cruise-in... :D


How many cars are showing up? I'm still a strong Maybe.

PonyUP and Mike827 are coming for sure, you can caravan up with them if you'd like.


5 but maybe up to 8

Five commited so far, still a couple I haven't gotten an RSVP from. With me, that's six cars so far for the cruise-in.

[Marauder_Santa]

Yup. Hoping for at least 8.

Easy drive from ATL, for sure. All interstate except for the last 2-3 miles.

Would really like to see you make it, you've got a DTR, right? That'll give us all four colors for the cruise0in.

[Marauder_Santa]

Yes, I have a DTR. Not often I see a Blue and would be nice to have all four colors lined up.

[SC Cheesehead]

Yes, I have a DTR. Not often I see a Blue and would be nice to have all four colors lined up.

Yup, would definitely be a discussion topic at the cruise-in as well.

[IwantmyMMnow!]

...but at least this week has gone by somewhat fast since I have something to look forward to.

Need a little help, though. Trying to figger out what to do with my kids on Sunday before I have to give them back to the ex. Any suggestions/ideas for things to do in the GSP area? My kids are 8 and 6, boy and girl. Both outdoor and indoor activities, since it will be rather warm Sunday.

Thanks a bunch....

Here's some suggestions:

http://www.greenvillezoo.com/

http://www.shoelessjoejackson.org/

Also, downtown Greenville has undergone a significant revitalization over the past few years, and is great for strolling, window shopping, dining, or just hanging out in the Falls Park.

Hope you count us!!

Is there a place for going inside with A/C while there?--May have to pass and just come by your place ??


Pool will be all ready to go when we get back. I'll have some refreshments available, plus some good Cajun sausage to go on the grill for anyone still hungry after Dickey's.

Sounds great --We may have to skip the Taylor's ( A/C hang-out comfort)and straight to your pace and then homeward--unsure --

(A BIG :thanks: to Shaijack for supplying the Boudin and hot sausages that we'll be enjoying; wadda guy!)

He is another great person of the MM family for sure--!!


I regret to inform that I won't be able to attend this auspicious event...too much dinero spent whilst up in Ct with the kids and grandkids. I need to buy front tires too. Hope you all enjoy Rex's little Weiner...dogs.

Hey - I found those speakers--you still want them??



So Rex-- How much time are any of us planning to spent at Taylor's before coming back to your grilling ?

Dickey's restaurant has AC if you need to get out of the heat. As far as how long we'll stay there, :dunno: The event runs from 1:00 to 5:00, we can leave whenever we get:

a. Too hot
b. Thirsty
c. Bored
d. All of the above

;)

[Marauderman]

After all read the above^^^^ I need to further explain what I my situation is--

Ms M and I are coming down and picking up her brother is Simpsonville, just about 12-15 minutes south of Rex's place--

Ms M. and her brother cannot take the heat like most of us and therefore I need to know places and time at the cruse-in situation--otherwise we may just end up stopping by Rex's for fun activities before heading home --

Gonna have to let you take the Mustang for a spin Rex, I think you really love it.

Of course I have to be the only guy going to a Marauder get together that leaves his Marauder at home :lol:

But I'm taking her to Chicago next week and leaving Mustang Sally at home, so I need to get a good cruise in on her.

Plus I'm bringing my oreo nuggetts, the worship line startsto the left :D
