Been getting the land rover ready for this all week. I'm in!! Will be at the awful waffle bright and early.
-
I talked to the Waffle House today.
EVERYONE PLEASE PARK NEXT DOOR IN THE BANK AND LOT BETWEEN.
Thanks!
-
Haha, we're going to swamp them. {letseat} I plan on being there no later than 800.
oops, don't know why I thought this was the chat thread [hammer] not enough sleep lately I guess.
-
I plan on being there at 8am also.. Eat some breakfast and get ready for a day on the trail.... a long day.... I think..
Not to mention to help WH pay rent on the parking lot.. LOL..
-
Sorry, gotta call out on this one, helping the father-in-law put a new tranny in his TJ this weekend. Maybe next time....
-
Add one more rig to the list. Three of us in either an '03 Rubicon or my '94 YJ. We're gonna skip the waffle jam, see ya at the trail.
-
Im going to come up and join yall for the day. It will be my first time out, I look forward to meeting everyone.

Good luck to you guys showing at 8 to a packed waffle house hoping to be out, and on the trail at 9. I'd either eat at 7:30, or bring a biscuit. It will be like a ZOO full of wild animals! :D :D :D
Also, just FYI to you new guys... there are scratching branches to get by on the trails in places, so be prepared to blast forward.
-
Yea, I may just eat at the Huddle House in Hiawassee.. hahahah
-
Its official, I'll be there. Excited to try out my new tires, no more street slicks for me!
I'll be at the house bright and early, I'll be leaving early so if I get back in my jeep and go to sleep someone wake me up before we leave {letseat}
EDIT: last I talked to Rick he was going to come.
-
I'm in with a buddy. Just got the go ahead from the boss lady. Try to meet at the Holcomb bridge Waffle House at 7:00. If not off to the other Waffle house.
-

Sorry to bail last minute, but we've changed our plans for tomorrow. >:(
-
You guys have fun! I'm sure you will with so many people.
Don't forget we need picures for our GATR Myspace!
Edit: Just an idea with so many people going.
Last time we packed the parking lot at the trail head and had far less people.
Who ever is leading the groups might want to split up at the Waffle House and some of you guys drive to the second entrance if it's possible. I know it's a longer drive, but it might be worth it.
