I started tearing down one of the saws I hope to bring last night. I realized if I don't get started, GTG will be here before I know it. Can't wait!

Be careful, Carl. Those boys down yonder are a tad different than what you're used to in Mineral Co.

Mikey...I've got my passport out of the safe and a visa applied for. :msp_biggrin: Been down there a couple of times and they seemed to accept northerners okay but a little standoffish - if you know what I mean. You going? Bringing the RA? I'll bring the Pioneer 610 for show - don't think I'll have it running by then.

well, that will be interesting...I did beat a bud's 08 once with it. No bets or trash talk though, it's a brute, not a speedburner. We can turn the GTG into a Pioneer festival.....

I am new to this forum (as if you couldn't tell) but I have never been to one of these GTG's but think it would be fun to attend. Can I just show up to this thing? What would I need to know being a newbie here on this forum?

You know, of course, the only reason I picked up the 610 was because you caught Dave stealing the RA for me. They are the only saws, besides my beloved early Stihls, that I think are works of art as well as workers.

invites
Only those AS members and other chainsaw enthusiasts who consider themselves in reasonable driving distance or with the ability to layover need consider themselves invited.
I f you are in New South Wales you might allow a bit of extra time to get here and to return home. You don't HAVE to own a chainsaw, but it will be difficult to fool us if you just show up for the food. There will be facilities available if you are of the fairer *** and some if you are not. You will find yourself among friends if you have a mind that is open to fresh ideas and learning oportunity by operating both modern and vintage chainsaws. Also, you will before you leave come to realize that this GTG is less about the saws than it is about the people who own and love them. If someone invents a story just for their own gratification, this should not be held as a common indication that all of us are alike.There will be other signs relating to this fact.
Hopefully there will not be a need for any special appointment of safety police as this job is the responsibility of Every attendee. Adult beverages may be consumed by those who can behave as adults in spite of it's consumption without exception. (hopefully I'm listening to myself as I type!)
Mr. Ernie Harris is our Host, who is not a member of this forum at this moment, but who may soon be. Ultimately, he calls the shots, but he's nothing if not a congenial sort. He may wish to add to my remarks as might Sawmandave or really anyone wishing to comment whether attending or not. You may be counted as attending for good planning from this time forward simply by saying definately so. I will be at this GTG unless prevented by an act of God.

Since Dean mentioned the word "police" I should warn folks that there is a State Police office where you turn off of 522 onto Owens Creek Road. I have encountered roadblocks there in the past and there is fairly significant law enforcement traffic on 522. Hate to see anyone have a bad ending to a good day.
