Iowa Spring GTG

Me too, only 6hrs or so.

Also thinking how many old green junks can the trunk of a Taurus hold?

Fold the seat down, about 3 1/2 hrs from Chitcago. OK maybe 4.

Well thats great but I don't live in Chicago, thats about 1 1/2 hrs from me. :msp_biggrin:

I thought about folding the rear seat down but that means the beer cooler would have to ride shotgun in the front seat. :hmm3grin2orange:

88 miles or bout 1.5 hrs

Are you riding bicycle? I can get to Iowa City in that time.

Slide the front seat all the way forward, it'll sit right behind there, and you can cover it with a jacket if it needs "shade".:msp_thumbup:

I would love to do just that but I doubt I can make it, as I might be going south around the same time.

Sure wish I could hit more of them.

I was thinking about providing lunch for us all and put a donation can at the end of the table.. I am looking for suggestions for food. Let me know what you think..

 

[heimannm]

Certainly sounds like a plan Mike.

For some, a GTG is like a family pot luck and it gives them a chance to show off one of their signature dishes. For others the eating portion is rather inconsequential.

If you want to and are able to put some food on the table no one will turn it down. Just don't feel like you have to provide anything fancy for a bunch of wannbe lumberjacks and sawyers.

I will plan on bringing a large cooler with water and soft drinks in any case.

Belle Plaine would not be too far from me and I have never been to a GTG. Will be watching for more details!

 

[Diesel nut]

Sure would like to go. Have to see if we're not in the field or not.

That is going to be the key. We could be just starting or near done. May not even be started yet as every spring is different . We have planted corn from April 20 through Fathers Day.

I went to college at Iowa State in Ames, a long time ago but I seem to remember the "Belle Plaine/What Cheer" exit on I-80. A town named What Cheer tends to stick in your memory even after so many years - and Belle Plaine also by association with it.

BTW I never made the trek to What Cheer to find out what it was that made the people so happy. Or Belle Plaine either for that matter. But I sure was curious.

I drove through Dike on Tuesday with my windows down but didn't here any old Macs running so I just kept going.
