'10 AF DSM meet unofficial thread - Page 2

Blackcrow64 · #16 03-23-2010, 12:13 AM

I would like to do something this year as long as things work out better for me this year... Part of my whole deal is that I won't have much vacation time this summer. I can take an extended weekend or two but that will be about it. I got a new position at work which I should be starting around May or it could get pushed back to June even. It kinda of depends how long it takes them to find my replacement so I can train them in before I start my new hours which will FINALLY be Mon-Fri day shift... It'll be nice to have normal hours...

The other big thing for me is... I'm actually buying a house. I got a call this morning that all the inspections passed on the home and it sounds like my offer was the highest on this house so now I just have to wait for the whole process to go through at the bank. We are trying to get the deal closed before the end of April so I get that first time home buyers credit too. I'm pretty stoked about it. It may keep me too busy/financially tight to do any traveling this year.

However... The plus side is that I will be living about 10 minutes from the dragstrip and there are several places around here to camp/fish/etc. Or there is always my place so long as everything goes smooth on the rest of the process. There would be plenty of room there if we are only gonna have a handful of people like usual...

I'll be able to let you guys know more for sure by the end of April...

Did I mention is has a huge 2 car garage?

Dude I'm excited for you. Congrats! Hope it all goes through. You know the second you get that I'm coming out there haha.

I can't wait till I buy my own house! 2 car garage is a must and so are a lot of other things. Congrats man!!

Thanks guys. The garage large enough to work in was a must for me. I also didn't want to be right in town with neighbors like 5 feet from me. It's kinda nice being on the outskirts of town with a little privacy. Once I know for sure that everything is legit and I get it, I'll be posting up some pictures of things. I really don't have to do too much work on it but I'm going to do some things anyways just to make it really nice... It even has a firepit there so I'll be able to have bonfires and such. I'm pretty stoked about that. lol

So back on topic here, are we really wanting to have this in more of a central location this year like OH, PA, WV area?

Also, when are we wanting to aim to do this again? July, August?

I would say June but if for some reason we decide to have it here, I would like to get the house ready before that date and I didn't plan on moving into it until I got things done in it first which was gonna be a month or two after I get it.

How many are we looking at to be attending? Just the same usual group of 3-6 people? Maybe somebody can shake Dustin out from under the rug and get him to come this year. lol

PA, OH area is great for me. If it's my and fam then we will just stay/sleep in a motel/hotel cause there's 4 of us and I wouldn't put that burden on anyone else.

I have 2 wks vaca this year so whenever you guys want to do it works for me. Just need time to save up some loot and what not.

david-b · #21 03-23-2010, 01:27 PM

Whenever/whenever for me. I'm planning a vaca in June and maybe another in September, so probably not good to do 2 in the same month lol. I can usually count as 2 people.. hate long trips by myself.

Mentioned to my wife about the idea of a meet and she seemed interested, so that's good news. So count me in if it's on!

Huoihje;ofn;d;asnfjshfkjhs!!!

Who the hell offers way more than the asking price of a house?

Somebody else got the house after everyone involved made it sound like I had it... Bah... F*ck the market...

ned032002 · #24 03-25-2010, 08:10 PM

That'll happen, I'm sure you'll find something else.

I'm hoping to make a trip to SC this summer to stay at the vacation house my company owns. There will be an open space...next to me...

david-b · #26 04-05-2010, 09:19 PM

Dusty likes bunking with you Foti. I won't even be near the same tent as you, let alone the same place haha. Just kidding.

My motto is: I'm not gay. My boyfriend is.

ned032002 · #28 04-05-2010, 10:30 PM

Way weird man. You down with a AF meet Tim?

Blackcrow64 · #29 04-08-2010, 03:48 PM

FYI I live in a huge house so if anybody was traveling through NC and needed a place to crash hit me up.
