COMPLETED: T11 Fall 2014 - Nov 7-9

[Trail X]

Sorry for being so wishy washy on the dates. My plans are finally clearing up, and November 7-9 is looking like the date for the next TECORE!

We will either be holding it in the normal spot, or we will be attempting a new area, which is a little further south in Virginia, around the Roanoke area. The second possibility is a bit harder terrain, so we will need to discuss which option we are going to do - and what the attending people are up for.

I like StaceySS date. Spaces out the trips a little. July 11,12,13.

I bet you do...

[DirtyBacon04]

Early july might work. But 11-13 would be really tough. the weekend before or after would be best for me. Plus I like the idea of going on july 4th. "TECORE: Freedom"

Early august is out of the question for the same reason I can't do the Utah trip, family vacation lobstering in the FL Keys

[Trail X]

July 4 is probably a date the rest of us would shy away from, being as its generally regarded as a family weekend. But maybe.

The weekend of July 18-20 isn't bad.

(Bacon, don't feel like I'm forcing you to drive up here either, I know it's a long ass haul for you. You be the judge of whether you really want to make that trip.)

[mikekey]

AGREED! No way do I want to be anywhere near the roads on the July 4th weekend. My birthday is also on the 6th, and I am planning on lapping Ferrari's at the Disney test track, something I wanted to do when I had my 30th birthday but didn't.

The 18-20 I could make work. Perhaps Bacon could come out of his hobbit hole and we could convey up.

Myself and a lady friend will try to make this. I think I'm going to be in North Carolina the 18-20 of July. I would prefer end June I think.

[Trail X]

Its a weekend, so it must be the beginning or end of your vacation... what a better way to begin or end it than going camping!

End of June is just too soon I think.

End of June is just too soon I think.

We get a Friday-Friday house on the OBX. How cool would it be if we were driving home that friday? I could take a pit stop in VA on the way home.

I'll double check our dates, maybe that will work out perfect. Leave a little early from the OBX, wheel GWNF with all the beach stuff and surf rods still in my truck. (My dad's truck gets the luggage, I take the toys)


EDIT: Our rental is July 18-25. Might be a chance I can work TECORE in with the lady friend and head to the OBX Sunday afternoon.

[v7guy]

I'm scheduled to be off the 11,12 of july. I could get off the 13th, same with the 25th-27th I'd definitely be able to do those dates.

Weekend of the 18th is no good for me.

[Sugar16]

Well I would like to say that I should be able to make this trip.. Finally!! Just as long as I can get the time off work.

[ErikSS]

We should probably wait to pick a date for the next Tecore until the guys who are ON TECORE Right now come back. I hope the guys are having an awesome time. (while my truck sits unable to start) haha

That said, Pick A Date! Pick a Date! Pick a Date!

[navigator]

I'm hoping I can actually make this one!

[Trail X]

Looking like we are narrowing it down to the mid to late bit of July. Three possible weekends. 11-13, 18-20, 25-27

I might start a forum-poll on those 3 weekends to see what looks the best for the group. It will be hot... I prefer cold camping to hot.

[DirtyBacon04]

well with the 18-20, i wont have to take any vaca days, or maybe 1 for a comfort zone. If i try and take the other weekend, I'd be putting my shift in a position to find another deputy to replace me for 3 days. Kind of a buddy-fcker move, considereing our agency is already short staffed. Also, I'll be taking 5 days off in september (for a trip to the Keys, not Utah ) dont wanna be "that guy".

[navigator]

It is looking like I might be ok any weekend in July. 2 of my 3 major projects at work should be live. Any new projects will be early and not as critical and I'm not aware of any family items.

[DirtyBacon04]

Then theres the whole obstacle of getting my truck ready... and worthy.

[navigator]

yeah, I've had front and rear diffs sitting here since October.

I second the motion for 18-20th. Gives me enough time to finish my truck and get it ready for the trip, along with some other matters I'm working on.

FWIW - July 11-13 is bad for me due to a previous commitment, but July 18-20 and July 25-27 are open.
