I'm here! It was 50 degrees this morning. Anyone traveling east on I-80 out of Youngstown, OH - be warned - the first 15 miles in PA took me almost an hour Tuesday afternoon. One lane road due to construction, one minor accident in the back up, and lots of semi's that are slow to get going from a dead stop on the hills.
Gas costs less in Ohio than Pennsylvania. I filled up in Youngstown at $1.99. I topped off at exit 173 before heading north to Wellsboro at $2.15.
Safe travels, everyone!

I have had all sorts of problems making a post here lately. Had to go to firefox, now it seems to be functioning.
Place is airconditioned!!!!!
Lots of tables.
Lots of food. I was told (this is my first Savagefest to attend much less host) to have "one big meal each day". I will do a bit more than that. Anyone who is hungry beyond that can walk 250' to the McDonalds in the back yard.
To find the place, just find the only McDonalds in Wellsboro. We are in their backyard. I will remove the chain from the driveway at 8am Friday morning, so anyone can drive in from there, or also from the street behind.
If anyone wants to help me do some cleanup on Sunday morning it will be much appreciated.
The place is fully furnished with refrigeration in the form of refrigeratiors, freezers, griddles, eating utensils, and all we could need.
If anyone wants to camp there with a camper or a tent, feel free. There is 120 elec to hook up to, just bring an extension cord.
If anyone needs me my cell is 585-739-2104.
Really looking forward to meeting you all.
Bob

Drive safely, Rick. Enjoy the scenery. Northern PA is God's Country.

Timeless Destinations, on Main Street is an excellent watering hole. Great bar, and some of the best thin-crust Pizza to be found. Hope to see some of the early arrivals there around dinner time tonight. My cell is 585-739-2104 if anyone needs me.
You will recognize me by my highly stylish red-ish moustache, and my Dad with his "walker" if we are there when you come by.
Really looking forward to this!
Bob

Cars loaded, bringing 2 and 1/2 99's. A Colt 1927 11.25mm. 3 door prizes, and Gary. Gary is not a door prize. Picking Gary up at 7. Hope to be there by 11. May get caught in a gun shop or two. That's the problem with smart phones. Tell them what you want and they find it for you. I'm asking my phone to find me a sleeper 1899 in one of those little PA gun shops. Looking forward to meeting all you guys and gals, Joe.
I'm not greedy, I just want one of each.

Since Bob is feeding us noon and night I would guess that Friday midday feeding will be closer to 12 than the earlier posted time.
