    Yes, it is that time of year folks. Time to get your plans together for the annual Mid-West HAMB-B-Q. This is the 6th one I think? Help me out, I've lost track.

    Here's the deal for this year:

    Meet at NoSurf's casa just south of Abilene Kansas Saturday morning April 21st and drive to the outskirts of Inman Kansas for a down-home prepared breakfast and shop tour at HAMBer Kerry's house.

    Then drive over to Hutchinson Kansas to the Kansas Cosmophere and Space Museum. After we have seen all that we want there, we'll head on back up to my place and eat BBQ.

    This year I have a band coming to play in front of the barn in the early evening, and then after dark we'll watch some movies on said barn.

    I look forward to seeing all my HAMB brethren again. Come early and stay late. People usually start getting to my place on Thursday or Friday before and stay thru Sunday. Tents, campers etc are welcome. Drive your hotrod or custom, or bring it, or come see others', whichever. This event is about the people. HAMBers from all over the Mid-West; Colorado, Nebraska, Missouri, Oklahoma and Kansas come out and hang out.

  5. Hope you all like toast! ;-) Edit: I'm talking about the dried bread, not the hamber.

    Just pretend that it's just a good pair of glass pacs making a "Slight" rumble, as you walk by.:D


    This year, how about we bring some stuff from home and have a sort of mini auction. Donate the bucks to Jay for putting this on every year?

    775 miles each way.

    10 mpg= 77.5 gals of fuel

    gas or diesel?

    gas=$256 x 2 = $512

    diesel=$310 x 2 = $620 (or less if get better mpg)

    six guys thats about $100 ea.

    not a bad cost for a heckuva a fun weekend....
