Sorry guys but I wont be able to make the journey back up this time. It looks like I will be missing the event in its entirety
After gearing up and making the trip up there. A friend of mine came down with a really severe kidney stone (hes had 33 this one makes 34) at about Lafayette. After vomiting a few times and urinating blood we opted to get him back home. I had every intention of returning Friday afternoon but on the return trip we blew out a tire on the camper. After getting it changed we continued home only to blow the spare a few miles later. We limped into Seymour Indiana at about 9pm only to be unable to find someplace to repair it. Eventually we made it to a Walmart with a tire center, unfortunately it was closed. As luck would have it I checked the automotive section and they HAD a premounted spare like what was needed. SUCCESS!
Unfortunately, while changing it I pulled something in my back that left me barely able to walk. Let alone drive 5 hrs back up to the event. After we got home and everything unloaded I crawled into the house and slept on the floor with my feet elevated on the couch. Sounds comfy don't it. Haha
I knew the powerjam would be memorable, I just wasnt expecting it to be this type of memories. If by some amazing chance I am able to even remotely function this evening, with the aid of my pain medication and muscle relaxers. I WILL make it back. I was looking forward to meeting everyone and getting some track time. Sometimes ya get thrown curveballs.
I hope everyone has a blast, I will be thinking of you guys!!!!
I want LOTS of video!
RonE I left your Rampage in the very capable hands of the guys in charge. I hope you like it, and I am sorry about not being there to help ya. If ya got any questions/concerns I will PM ya my cell again.
