I will be with you in spirit waiting for each and every update. Forget the bazooka, unless it is bubblegum, and opt for a LAW ( Light Anti-tank Weapon ) the tube telescopes inside it self so it is less than one third the length. 8)

Compact and deadly! Adding it to my NEED list. Are you on Twitter Grog?

Have not been logged on in a month or so, I think it is gaminggrognaurd.

You should jump on the week before the live event. I know I'll be posting most of my updates there. Follow along!

I'll be seeing y'all on the news, won't I....

Well now that we are offically going in two vehicles the hijynx will probably reach an all time level. As far as packs I am going to Todd's by plane so most survival gear is a no go for me unless I manage to make an ak on the 3d printer.....hmmmmm

Not one big vehicle??

Put the stuff in a flat rate box & ship it to Todd's.... Cheaper than the baggage costs.

@GamerGirl

don't give her ideas! :)

@turbo

our group is the perfect size to make a 7person vehicle cramped. Total cost for 2 cars will only be about 20 bucks more altogether(per person), and add needed space, for both comfort and storage.

Oh buddy! My wife was reading the reviews for the Super 8 tonight. Looks like the motel will be an adventure all on its own.

Hey, no problem Doc! I reserved the rooms with the LEAST amount of roaches & bedbugs. We may have to fight our way past a few hookers on the way UP to them, but as Angel says, "We should be fine, then!"

Besides, Kc was the one who originally recommended the place, so we know who to "thank"-- in person-- if it sucks :nik:

Do you guys happen to have a total for each person's contribution to gas and lodging?

Oh wow but it wouldn't be a first. I stayed at one in Chicago and well those reviews don't have anything on that one. Lets just say the pubes we're the least of my worries in the room.

Safe number on gas n lodging is 500. Roughly 225 gas, 200 lodging.

Dropbox - you should set up a Dropbox for all the pics. (& maybe get someone not on the trip to manage it).

This will keep your devices free for all the pics you will (& better) be taking.

Tues 7/15
7am: Leave Todd's place, drive 1.5 hours to Merramac Caverns
9-12pm: Caverns tour, should be back on the road by noon at the latest
12-7pm: Long, 7 hour drive to campsite
7pm: Camp at El Reno, OK (just west of OK city)

Wed 7/16
7am: Leave campsite, drive 3.5 hours to Amarillo, TX
10:30-2pm: Visit Cadillac Ranch & lunch @ Big Texan Steak Ranch

(BTW, I spoke with a lady who works there who told me we don't need reservations.
Also, they have a special "Steak Cam" that live streams anyone trying the steak challenge on their website!
http://bigtexan.com/live-stream/)

I thought that one way to save some money is to take AdrianHD up on his generous offer and crash at his apartment the night of Wed 7/16. EDIT: Adrian got back to me and said it was fine to crash at his place, for free (maybe we can order some of that Breaking Bad pizza for dinner!). Also, he can take us on the BB Tour Thursday morning no problem. then, there's a decision that needs to be made about Roswell:

Option 1: Roswell Hell Yea
2pm-5:30: Travel to Roswell
5:30-7:30: Buy alien shit in Roswell, etc.
7:30-10:30: Travel to Albuquerque, crash at Adrian's for the night

(as you can see, this option puts us in ABQ kinda late, or we could...)

Option 2: Screw Roswell
2pm-6pm: Travel straight from Amarillo to Albuquerque
6pm-ish: Arrive at Adrian's much earlier, but miss out on Roswell

Thur 7/17
8am: Leave Adrian's for Breaking Bad Tour of Albuquerque
8am-11am: Breaking Bad Tour, hitting the road by 11am
11am-5pm: Travel from Albuquerque straight to the Grand Canyon
5pm-ish: Enjoy Grand Canyon, take pictures, camp in area

Fri 7/18
8am: Leave Grand Canyon for California
8am-2pm: Travel to Ft. Irwin area
2pm-5pm: Some kind of sight-seeing of Ft. Irwin / Yermo / Barstow (need to leave by 5 in order to make the next stage...)
5pm-8pm: Travel to hotel in East L.A.
8pm: Fan Meetup at Bar / Hotel / Wherever in East L.A.

Sat 7/19
9am: Leave hotel for local WA Tour of LA
9am-4pm: Lots of time here for local WA tour of LA, lunch, etc.
4pm-6pm: Piss around, travel to Live Event site
6pm-LATE: WA Live Event! and After Party!

Sun 7/20
8am: Leave hotel for WA Colony Tour
8am-12pm: Travel, tour of WA Colony location south of LA
12pm-2pm: Tour of WA Studio

Sounds like an eagle scout project

I never made it past webelo. how do you spell webelo? we-be-low? I dunno..

woven beards sound like a bad idea. that might upset the family of wrens living in mine.
