Default Work party Sat Jan-2-2016

Anybody that's interested in coming to hang out, work on my crawler coarse and do a little crawling is welcome to come. Going to try and get started around 9:00 am. I'll be providing lunch for everyone involved. Going to have a few large piles of rock to put in place. Bring your rigs so we can try out some lines as the coarse gets built and do some runs that afternoon when we get the work done.

As long as weather is permitting that day

I'm in Greensboro just off hwy29 north.
Please post up on this thread or pm so I can get a count of how many will be coming.

Address is
4206 pineneedle dr
Greensboro NC 27405

List of people:
: Me (Rodney)
: Lucy Jane
: The Bug (Erik)
: JDintheTJ
: tacocat

Sounds like a good idea to start the new year. Will be good to swap ideas back and forth on courses.

Yea man, come on out. I value anybody's input that wants to give it to me on the coarse.. Like I say I just need to know ahead of time about how many are going to be coming so I make sure I got enough drinks, snacks, food,etc.

If you got shovels, rakes, "hoes" etc you want to bring that would be great. Will have a few tools on hand but anything to make life easier is welcome.

We sure won't have to worry about the ground being hard. Atleast Saturday is shaping up to be a nice day.

Looks like should be nice Saturday. Cold but at least it'll be sunny. I'll post up fri to inform on how muddy it looks like it'll be. "May want to wear old clothes and shoes" The land has been graded slightly down hill to help drain water but still has a few spots that puddle up. I just hope my buddy don't back out on delivering more rock Friday morning. It sucks loading these things by hand into a pickup truck by yourself. Not to mention after about 500lbs on pickup is not fun to drive.. I've got a ton of wood slats cut to 15.5" also for brige and what not that could be built. I Finished welding the frame for the bridge Sunday so it's all sturdy now and got a couple hundred screws to attach boards to the frame. Like I said before any tools yall wanna bring would be cool. I've got a couple of hand trucks, wheel barrow, couple shovels and rakes, screw guns, etc. but any thing yall wanna bring is appreciated.

Yea, we still good for tomorrow. Ended up being so wet at the farm that we could not get the dump truck down to the rock pile. So I been bringing pickup loads home all day. All loaded by hand. But I got enough to keep us busy and still have a good time. Just brought last load home right after dark. It's a little wet still but I think we'll be ok. If nothing else we could have a mud bog in my drainage area. As of right now my truck looks like a rats nest made of wire.. But should have it all done and put back together by in the morning. I got the dx4c and been relocating wires to reach receiver box and still gotta wire up my external bec tonight. But it's all good. I plan on being out there about 8:30-9:00 in the morning so whenever after that yall wanna show up is cool.
Look for the house with white fence on either side of yard with x-mas decorations on it and the clean front yard with the "Sanford and Son" back yard.

Well it turned out to be a great day working on the coarse. I wanna thank all you guys that came out "Bugs", "JD" and "taco cat". So far this thing is awesome I love what we accomplished. Got more done in one day than I was able to do in the last 6 months. Hopefully going to have a couple more loads of rock delivered and maby we can all have another get together soon. Again thank you for all the help. Sometimes it's easier to get things done when you just have someone around to talk to and joke around with and give some outside perspective. Here are some pics.

Great rock and roll party - or should I say roll a rock party
I think it's coming together nicely, a few more loads of rock and you'll be ready to host a crawl.
