WF Florida - Travel, Arrival, and Happenings thread

Post up your travel info, arrival, planned Shenanigans here.....Steaks are ordered, Sausages tomorrow, etc.

I am hoping to be up there by check in time on Friday (3PM). Normally, I shoot for noon, but with all the prep on the car, I may get a later start on Friday...

Daughter has a choir performance on Friday night, so I will see you all Sat morning in the parking lot.

We will be arriving mid to late afternoon on Friday.

Just came back from shopping.  We picked up silverware, cups, napkins and plates.  Diane will make a 3 bean salad.

Tom

Do you expect us to believe that you traveled from the tundra of Canada and make it to almost the FL border in one day?  Ya right.   Oh oh, this is Nick.  How come you didn't make it all the way to Daytona.  It's only a stones throw from where you are.


Tom

Shooting for 3PM. Called out the reinforcements last night (Mark Roady), and we wrenched hard on the car until 1:30 AM. So damn close to done, but as I feared we hit issues. Rear brake lines we bought don't want to go into the distrobution block at top of diff, alternator has internal short and started smoking when battery was connected (easy fix- replace), Fuel delivery issue. Full pressure to the rail, no delivery. Runs on ether into the butterflies..... Windshield guy flaked and never showed.

Siiiiiiigh, maybe a new award category for Ray, Tom and I: forgot to bring my wagon....
Nick, if you are coming and need a registration to drive in, I now have mine available....

Original plan was leaving at 4am to get there by 8, but I've decided, that would be no fun and therefore I'll be sleeping all the way til 7. I should be at the show in the late morning if all goes well. Bringing the dog so we'll be staying at the La Quinta across the way from the best western. \

Next year I'll get going a day early!

The LaQuinta is pretty good. I liked that hotel a lot, but the BW has better accommodations for the BBQ festivities that are kind of a cornerstone of WF Florida.


See you tomorrow!
