Is just around the corner, guys. If you haven't checked out the website lately, please click the link below and take a look. Matt has updated it with a few fresh looks.

Also, the projects are beginning to come in. If you have one you wish to add, send it to me and I will be sure to get it added for you.


Thanks!

See you guys in a few weeks. Can't wait.

Roy

Hey Roy, The TN boys have already reserved two rooms at Lake Seminole Inn. Roger, Steve Koons, John Kieffer (newby) and I plan to be there mid-afternoon Thurs. Can't wait! So far, we are not bringing any projects. But, we are willing and able to lend assistance and sage advice to others.
I also plan to sample all of the food items. Wouldn't want to hurt anyone's feelings. I really liked Mike's BOUDAIN (Boudin) sausage. Even after he told me what was in it. :D :D :D

By the way, I had trouble opening DSCF website. Took forever to load, while waiting on (1 remaining item). Then when it opened, some of the pictures were missing. Displayed the little RED X.

I am using explorer.

Pris and I will be there mid week. We will be camping at Lake Seminole. Anyone haveing carb issues and want them rebuilt remember to bring a kit with you. I just ordered 2 from Steiner and will take a look at the contents and the quality. They go for around $60 with shipping. But if you order multiple they don't charge much extra for shipping and handleing.

Ron,
I have just opened it with several different browsers. Seems to be working fine for me. I did notice when I opened it at work this afternoon, that at times it seemed to be a bit slow. I'm guessing the hosting server might be busy. I'll check with Matt and get his thoughts.

Looking forward to seeing you boys in a few weeks. I'll make sure Billy Ray and I sample all the foods before you get in line to be sure it is up to your expectations. :lol:


Ron,
Just got off the phone with Matt. He suspects the hosting site may be having server and/or bandwidth issues. He had experienced some of the same symptoms today. He will be touching base with them tomorrow. Thanks for letting us know. We want you to have a pleasant experience viewing the site. :{_}: :{_}:

Walt and I are getting ready. I won't be bringing anything to work on, but am planning to bring the TN Cub Rescue Van and trailer loaded down with smalls and cub express items. Will also be available to help with anything anytime.

As always fellas, if there is ANYTHING Cub, or implement related that you might need, let it be known. Every cubfest there are folks that go home without, simply because "we can't bring everything" but if we had known, we could have brought it.

That's about when we reserved our room. The motel is small and was full last year. Keep in mind, the northern fishermen end up there also about the same time. It looks like more are coming to DSCF this year so you better get your room while you can. The next closest motel is twenty miles away.
