Sokal if it's in the back half of August I will start saving up now to come up there. I would love to visit VA Beach. I may have a souped up boat by then and be able to go out to Mt Trashmore 1 and drive it around a bit just to goof off...

If you can go ahead and set the dates now that would probably make it easier on others to plan that far in advance as well. I know you mentioned something about having to deploy around that time.

[sokal]

looks like weather will be good

start time is about 10Am to when we feel like quiting
my wifes bday is on sat. so all is welcome to join us at the house for some games and (drinks)

That sounds like a great idea, if there isn't a shady area already! I might have to check out some party tents as well... You get the HK450 up and running again Zack?
