I'm Down, I know at least two of us would join, It would be a perfect time to break in the new 557 in my buddy's Ranger. Should be complete in a couple months. Due to the price tag it's slow going!

for anyone that wants to go there is alot to do around there. cabela's is right down the road. the great wolf lodge has a waterpark. the kansas speedway, nebraska furniture mart, all kinds of stuff. as for the swapmeet. there are all kinds of food vendors on site so chow wont be a problem. it is huge. the april one is bigger because of the weather-it's not as hot as august. i had a great time the last time i went. it is worth going to.

we should plan on a place to meet up. and then go in or a meet after we go in. it would be better if we were able to met first and pile into on truck and get all of us in for one price.

i was thinking that might not work. we would all have to park someplace else and then get in one truck. the cops patrol around when they have shows. just to keep people from doing just what we are talking about. they pass out tickets and tow cars because they block traffic and are parked illeagly.

ok. I was thinking of looking the first day and then maybe buying on the second day just before packit back in time.

This would most likely mean i'd be getting a one nite hotel/motel Room.

Wonder if I checked in that afternoon how many vehicles they'd allow parked there? probably just one. but maybe if we asked and it was for only the cuople hours before the show closed for the day. How many of us would stay overnight and go both days?

It is only two days right? Also if the oklahoma boys could only afford roundtrip to maimi,ok I could meet them there. I'd be staying overnight though so unless they do the same they'd become stranded unless someone else was heading back that evening.

Also wondering if kc mo is close enough to kc,ks? And if the kansas city boys had room for one or two guys with sleeping bags?

Ok guys Im set up in Leavenworth and want to do this meet with ya'. I have room here for just about anything under 20 folks and Im about 20 mins away from the sweet spot. I have a van that will hold 6 comfy and 8 tightly packed. I dont believe in charging for a nights stay but anything longer will require some chores, like picking up dog poop or something like that :lol: .

Anyway Im in and if I can help out give a holler.

Hey Having you in on this might just make it work out this time.

Lets get a head count.
