West Coast Florida GTG time?

[Viesel]

I havent replied much because I didnt think I was going to make it, but I know now that I'll be there.
What can I bring?

 

[LWB053]

I'm planning on bringing a cooler full of Coke (the kind you drink, before anyone makes any smart comments!) and a bunch of hotdogs. I'll get some buns for the dogs, and jugs of mustard and ketchup.

 

[KI4HOK]

Also for the ones down south, are we meeting at the usual place (Hess on Jacaranda by the interstate)??

 

[JettaJedi]

sounds good here - what time ?

 

[KI4HOK]

9:30 AM sound good?? That will put us there about 11:00.

 

[JettaJedi]

Can we do 10 instead ?
I have a late evening Sat....

 

[silverstreaker]

I don't get off work untill 11:00 am so I'LL be there about 11:30

 

[KI4HOK]

10 is fine with me!!

 

[KI4HOK]

Oh, the other thing is for the Hams that will be attending, What frequency will be in use for talk in/meet up on the way there??

The repeater (146.73 PL 100Hz) in Sarasota is easily accessable from the park/St. Pete, if you want to meet there.

Ok guys, I just came home with a new 05 Golf TDI, do you guys mind a n00b joining in? I'm sure I could learn alot from you guys...

Also, you guys comming from the south, how far south? I am in Parrish (near Bradenton)

-Robert

 

[KI4HOK]

N00bs always welcome!! I think that it shouldn't be a problem to meet up with you on the way up. I would sugest meeting at the truck stop on the south side of 301 and I75. Or if you want to give me a call, 941-650-5846.

I was at the last GTG (my first) and I look forward to seeing you folks again - plus any new attendees. I plan on bringing soft drinks/ice and chips.

[rjg]

Chips! That's awsome, I have been wanting to chip oy TDI

Actually I won't be able to make it

I was going to go but, the wife told me this morning that she is showing property Sunday. So I get the kids but at least she bring in the $$$$. Unless of course I drag my 5 and 7 years old daughters with me. I dunno know if they would be into it... hmmmmmm...

 

[PAPADUZA]

Ted,

I'll be scanning 146.52 simplex & SPARC repeater 147.060+ (no pl)

73,
Bob, N2ESP

Thought I'd stop by Wendy's and bring some of their digital chili. BTW, has anybody heard which finger it was? Might be that chili is more Italian than Mexican?? I will be there with the oldest Passat TDI (I think, in the area) with a build-date of Oct '95. Paul

Just a reminder.....3 words: DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME
Spring ahead; Fall back!

I've got Brats, buns, Charcoal and the small gas grill in case we can't get one if it's too busy.
Mark

 

[Viesel]

yes dont forget DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME

I will be bringing 2 homemade chicken pot pies, I have been up all night making and baking them, along with some plates, napkins, and biodiesel sauce.

 

[rjg]

Guys,

I just wanted to say thanks for welcoming the n00b.. I really enjoyed the time and found out I have ALOT to learn. It was great to meet everyone!

-Robert

PS - I broke 400 miles on the way home.. ;-)

 

[LWB053]

Robert, we were all n00bs once, contrary to what some might try to tell you! Good to see you there.

Bill: nice car. <sneer>

Good to see you all there. It was a nice turnout...I think we counted 14 or 15 cars. For those with kids that ended up not coming, next time we GTG at Ft. DeSoto, I'll probably at least bring my 7 year old 'helper'...they have a nice playground right beside where we were cooking.

Keith

 

[Viesel]

That was a blast.

 

[silverstreaker]

yes lots of fun nice place great food, It was good to meet everyone thanks for the ventectomy Kieth

 

[keypecker]

Food was great and the company was, as always, entertaining & fun! Also, Welcome to all the new guys! It was great to meet ya, Please don't feel slighted when I've forgotten your name by the time we meet again!

Bill,

If you want to send me the pics you took I can host them.. Let me know as I would love to share them with my wife who wasn't able to make it..

Bill, I think that would be the kindest way to put it. I would guess by now he's pouring over the "TDI power enhancements" area planning his next attack & retribution

If I were you I wouldn't rest on my lorals, be ready, he's sneaky and resourceful

Great day, great cars, and great fun. Thanks to all but especially Mark for cooking and Keith for the technical help. Nice to see the veterans and it was nice to meet the new guys. It's difficult to get that many smart people together these days! Keep on recruiting, guys. There's going to be a lot more TDI owners out there and soon. Have a great summer everybody. Paul
