Hotel is booked!! 2018 show is locked in!

[Sparky-(Admin) 21,318]

  Booked my hotel tonight for this years show! Missed the 2017 show because of my 25th wedding anniversary so I'm being pro-active and getting all my plans locked in for the 2018 show. Already told the boss (and my wife!!) that I need the time off.

  Just need the next 5 months to whiz by!!

       I will be celebrating my wife's birthday at the Big Show;    She will be celebrating at home!

Where you staying Mike? Blue sky or something like that?

I gotta book soon too. We usually stay in Gettysburg but thought about changing things up. Maybe crash the party out at the Comfort inn in Chambersburg?

think she’d like a tractor for a gift  !

 That's a win win situation right there. If she doesn't, you get to keep it and just be sure to remind her "it's the thought that counts"

John....staying at the Courtyard by Marriott in Gettysburg. I have gobs of Marriott points from business travel so the room is free (or 25,000 points).

  Can't beat free!!

[wallfish 17,000]

Wanna hook me up with some of those spare points and turn them into cash?

Just checked the calendar and as always I’m wrong ..... man I can’t ever remember or get this date right for my anniversary.  It’s the following Friday I have to worry about but a tractor would still work the same. I’m sure I’ll be in the doghouse for something from the Big Show anyways  !

DO IT!  Or just crash. Lot's of room under the drive up canopy.

I just asked the boy and he said he wants to camp... I guess I am getting old.

You just can't beat a nice warm, soft bed in a clean, air conditioned room. And the pleasure of a decent hot shower.

Would love to John, but the missus likes to use them for weekend getaways. 

  Sorry.

Nothing like Air-Condo when it's hot and sticky out and you've been in the Sun all day.

Camping is part of the fun again. Are we all getting the site again?

I can just picture it now. Squonk on the roof dressed up in noth'n but a speedo and a lampshade and get'n ready to jump off into the pool while 953 and Stevasaurus are making a smoke screen with the fire extinguishers, everyone else cheering him on. Ah the good old days!

I know this is a little off topic but @squonkin a speedo is a bad bad vision . Any way who is staying at the Blue Sky Motel. I booked the last room about a week ago .

[Big_Red_Fred 1,547]

I'll be there dressed like Bowser from Shaw Na Na ! in my 48 Plymouth Biz Coupe

I never worn a speedo and no plans to do so in the future. I am not going to ask about your past adventures.
