Marlin - Looks like another VX'er in South Carolina soon!!
The career is moving me up again and I am heading East to Aiken, SC, to the DOE Savannah River Site. The job offer went dead during the 09 ZuZoo, but they called me up two days ago and made me a 6 figure offer I couldn't refuse. :eek:

SWEET, we can have our own meets, and window fixing parties and make everyone out west jealous about our close location and fantastic trails........We can caravan down to Ocala , FL, and you can go up to Uwharrie, NC. Are you gonna be here by Oct? The fall meet is 22OCT-26OCT. They call it Hallowharrie. As long as my surgery is either way before it, or after it, I will be going, gotta show off the bumper project.:bgwb:

Crager34,
Congratulations on your promotion! :clap:
Does this mean you won't be coming to next year ZuZu or you will be coming with Marlin?
Peace.

Report to work on 6-29-09, so I will be there. ZuZoo 10 I am not sure about. Maybe I will just fly out and rent a JEEP so I can hang with everyone. :p

Crager,
Grats on the job.
Maybe we need to have a Gov't meet. I'm DoD not DoE but don't hold that against me. We'll even slum a little and invite some grunts or squids (sorry Marlin - couldn't resist).
Marlin mentioned some really nice Gov't cabins down in his area. It's been a few years since I've been to the Charleston or Savannah area, it'd be nice to visit.
This summer may be hard to make happen but we could shoot for next spring or summer.

I'm just a slimy DoD contractor; would I still be allowed in? ;)

BTW, I know that the term grunt has negative connotations but since I've spent the past 26 years building equipment for our 'defenders of freedom', I actually use it as a term of respect. I have the utmost admiration for our men and women in uniform.

Slimy Contractors are only allowed if sponsored by one of the elite. Yer good people tho, so I'll sponsor you.

Eh, I was government once too so I'm not all bad. If they paid more I'd love to go back. Sigh...

Congrats Darrin. I've never been to NC but I hear it's a beautiful area of the country. I'm sure you'll have a great time out there, but your move is going to make it really tough for us to meet up and go skiing in Aspen.:grinb:

Its all good, I am used to it...
Let me know if anyone wants to come down and I can do the footwork for the cabins or there is a nice campground on the Naval Weapon's Station as well.
