flatcat19 Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 We, the few... Had something that prohibited us from making it to Canby. What is your reason? I see the member roll at the bottom of the main page. I have never seen it so low. I totally wanted to make the trek this year, but My wife and I just had our second child. http://community.ratsun.net/topic/32578-introduction/page__p__491746__fromsearch__1#entry491746 Curious about the rest of you guys. What's your excuse? Lets see who didn't make the trip... Quote Link to comment
thisismatt Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 I rescued my 521 from Oregon...I'm not going to take it back! :lol: But really, it's too far of a drive for the L series to be enjoyable :P Also got engaged, need to move into a bigger place, and money is tight right now.

flatcat19 Posted June 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 Matt- Congratulations on the engagement. Laecaon You're lucky to be so close. And you're polluting with your "I'll be there tomorrow" jargon. Kidding. Rustina Thanx man. It's been pretty awesome these last couple days. Hectic. But awesome. I've attended the showing multiple times. But never as an owner. I plan on going there next year in my 521. My parents have 100 acres a few miles away from the fairgrounds. All us broke folks can get our camp on there next year. Quote Link to comment

Kidding. :P Even being so close, I am cutting it close with paying for gas and camping there 1 night... :blink: My parents have 100 acres a few miles away from the fairgrounds.

And I ain't got no bullshit rules either. Pack out what you pack in. Don't set shit on fire. Don't be an ass. Don't get caught doing that to the cows. Drink and smoke away. Quote Link to comment

The Dat-side Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 My wife was supposed to take summer classes and we really needed a vacation. So her only week off starts today. After we booked the flights she finds out summer classes aren't going to work out. :( So were headed to Cali, when all the Datsuns leave. Quote Link to comment

Dirk Diggler Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 Wife came home 2 weeks ago real excited. I asked her what she was so happy about and she said "i quit my job!". I said good for you, where are you working now. Nowhere. Great. I'm broke enough as it is and now we only have one income coming in until she finds a new job. Not too happy about it.

Rhapakatui Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 Datfiniti not finished, and I'm on the real best coast, the Gulf Coast. Debating whether or not to try and drive the truck up there next year. Figure that'll be a fun way to road test the build. Quote Link to comment

But I want to see it anyways. Quote Link to comment
