Jeez, John! You beat me to it! How far is it from Brandywine Picnic Park to Thomas Chevrolet? Wondering how much extra time to leave! Also, we gotta find a new meeting place! Somtimes I hate change! (but I hate being flooded more!)

Barry,

It is probably 15 mins further, not a bad ride. 
Yes, I'll be there.

If you want a new meeting place here is one idea that is on the way.
On RT 202N and Brintons Bridge Rd there is a shopping center called Dilworthtown Crossing on the north bound side with a CVS Pharmacy on the corner. 
Here is an address of one of the stores in there if you want to see the location.
1361 Wilmington Pike, West Chester, PA

Regards,
John

As long as we survive Sandy, we'll be there. Where are we gathering? Why don't we just meet there?

Remember, Paul, if we don't go in as a group we can't park as a group! We want to make a presense here!

Does not look like we will make it. I was supposed to put up a new shed this passed week end but because of the storm coming the guy that was going to take away my old shed never made it, so now I have to get it done this week end. We were looking forward to this show & seeing everyone again before winter. Have fun guys!

Sounds Great - We hope to meet you all at the meeting spot.  Maybe we'll bring an extra car and make a Jimmy John's run for lunch (just down the street).  Best Hot Dogs EVER!

Not sure if we'll makeit now.  Driving to Stone Harbor tomorrow when Frank gets done work, for damage assessment & yard/debris clean up (Bulk trash on Monday).  Plus - I'm  a little under the weather....so we're playing it by ear.  At this point, don't count on us...don't want to hold anyone up : )

I hate to do this, but it looks like we need to skip also. Pre-registered and everything. I can't buy more than 6 gal of gas at a time and I don't even have enough gas to get back and forth to work...Power has also been in and out.

I'm thinking of  heading to help out some friends look at their property down in Ocean City NJ where we stayed the weekend before the storm.


Sorry all. Have fun.

Well...I'm here now...looking forward to seeing you all one more time!! Sorry to hear about all the hard times out there at home..I got friends in OC now..from what I understand most damage was from 63rd street down ocean side..I haven't talked to Rodney yet to see how his place turned out yet though...on a good note I do see two people going to this show I haven't met yet. This I look forward to. For Paul ...I can pick up your entry packet and mail it to you so you at least get the goodie bag!! No trophy this time though...hope for next year bud and take care! See you all at 8...I'll eat later when I get there..drive safe.

Back atcha Ebo. I even lent out my generator and delivered 5 gal jugs of water today.

Kinda heartbroken as a NJ resident and grew up in Staten Island, si this is somewhat of a double whammy on me emotionally.

Folks, please say a prayer for all those left severely impacted by this disaster.

Time for shows and trophies later...
