If I don't have to work that weekend I will be there, but i doubt the truck will be.

[66chevy PROSTREET]

Thats if GUSTAV or any other storm does'nt screw it up. i'm willing to take a hit here in south la. to spare my mississippi buddies and insure COC goes on........i know ....i'm sick


i hope this hurricane goes to mexico

[krue]

But I'm still filling the tractor and generators with gas.

[66chevy PROSTREET]

already done! i think it is headed here though. mabey it will stay a cat 3

[100%Chevy]

I hope it doesn't come here either!
I've got the gas and done everything necessary for a storm that I can.
Run the generators,wifes' bought extra supplies,etc.
It's supposed to hit this weekend and I have hurricane duty at work!
I work on oil rigs!
This is gonna be a bad one guys.Be prepared,don't take chances!Be aware,don't get flooded in!Think of your family first.!
If you plan to leave,leave early to beat the traffic.
Mike.

We're gonna leave Saturday after my wife's grandmother's memorial service. Should have an idea of which way to go by then.

[TimE]

Hopefully it won't be as bad as it appears that it could be. I haven't been to CTC since Ivan hit us a few years back. I actually have vacation scheduled this year and am planning to be there Fri-Sun.

Good luck to those of us that wind up in Gustav's path.

[66chevy PROSTREET]

if it came back after katrina, anything is possible! i think everyone will be ok. mother nature has to take its course, we are just along for the ride.

[Already Gone]

I can't imagine how you folks in the hurricanes path feel. You all seemed prepared and I guess that is all you can do. Keep yourselves and your loved ones safe and God be with you !!!!

[Palf70Step]

Thank you sir.

That really is about all we can do.

[66chevy PROSTREET]

back to COC, is HWY 90 paved all the way yet? if not what is done so for, and have they taken down any of those anoying stoplights that go to nowhere?

[Palf70Step]

A good deal of it is paved. I don't travel it every day, but I know there is a few spots in Gulfport, and westward (Long Beach, Pass Christian, Hancock County) that is still under work. I think mostof the main cruising areas arefinished thoiugh.

Of course now that we got 2, almost 3 storms in the area, who the hecks knows what is going to be.

i know , this sucks

[66chevy PROSTREET]

well, i'm glad evry thing turned out ok, we have damage, but will get thru it, then on to crusin....

[jmuck]

I will be there on friday. I will be staying at the beax rivage casino( next to hardrock casino). Let me know if everyone is meeting at the coliseum at noon and do crusiers have special parking at the swap meet or will you guys have your own parking area or meeting place?

[jmuck]

Oh yea I made a few changes to my blazer here is how it looks now.




I still have to finish the hood and interior before the cruise. I hope I finish it.

[Palf70Step]

WE haven't worked out all the details on meet ups, but we do normally meet up t the swap meet at the Colosseum. There isn't any reserved parking there normally. As it gets closer and all us MS, TX, LA, FL, AL, & TN folks get our plans more finalized we'll be shouting at each other. I hope to be available the entire week, or darn near all of it.

[66chevy PROSTREET]

i'll be waiting to hear the plan, count me in, i arrive on weds morning.

[crawdadfox]

I will be there thurs.-sun. Planning on spending all day sat. in ocean springs. that was the place o be lasy year!!

[66chevy PROSTREET]

anything new?

[Palf70Step]

Nothing yet. Sunday is the first day, and I'll be there.

I plan on hooking up with anyone I can that is here. I am off the entire week, but have "honey-dos" and stuff on and off during the week. 90 is still under construction, but I don't think that will slow any of us down much.

[Palf70Step]

Only 2 (two) more days till she begins. I can't wait till Sunday.

Hope to meet up with a lot of you later in the week. I am off till thew 14th so hopefully between some chores and kids football I'll be at a lot of the main events.

PM me if you are going to be in the area for it and I'll give you my cell and we can meet up.

Oh yeah, its time!!!!

i'll be there later on in the week on friday and saturday. unfortunately i won't be riding in my 69 but i can't wait anyway!!! next year she'll be ready to cruise!
