Oh and everything is 25% off regular price and beer is better . Mike

I have to check and confirm with the club members but the plan was first weekend of August.
May and June are the worst for bugs. No problems in August.

The one thing you might want to do at the border Mark. When we went to Indy in 2012, I went to the customs office the day before the trip and filled out some forms to declare what I was bringing with me. The trucks, trailers and radios I had. That way, when your going home you don't have to fight with them and explain you didn't purchase the stuff while on your trip! No cost, just peace of mind.
And like Mike said.

This would be a dream come true to have a few fellow excavator and dump truck owners come to play.. With multiple diggers and dumps, we could keep the screener plant working full bore!

25% of for Americans

you will need a coal pit to run the boilers,
and a crane of some sort wouldn't look out of place.
how about a few conveyors delivering coal to a furnace , with a water collection device on top to boil water.
playing with RC trucks and making a coffee at the same time!
cant wait to see what you come up with.

cheers andy

[Mikem]

And to continue Andys thought trains to deliver coal ! Mike

I just so happen to have a good supply of ground rubber that can pass as a coal pile and a bruder conveyor looking for something to do! Coffee making sounds good but I think the blast furnace building might hide a beer cooler

Read my mind Mike. As soon as I thought about the steel plant,a rail system came to mind.

I'll have to see if it will be possible to get some work for a d11 up there

I'm so glad we have these discussions! Your absolutely right RW! If there is any chance of my favourite RC dozer coming to my yard, I will do whatever it takes to make sure there is dirt for it to push! Rest assured there will be a pile, plenty other places for the steel plant to go.

Well mark and I were talking at the last show, that's two of us, four would make a great motorhome expedition. Room for the toys,,,,

[Supermario]

didnt sleep a wink lastnight...worried about making sure there's plenty of work for coopers beast of a dozer just in case he can make the trip.

I have a better idea than just pushing dirt RW, got some big tree roots that need exposing in the pit area, figured good job for the ripper to figure out where the roots are at and make the excavators life easier. Then, Id like to clean up around the old backyard wood stove area and make things nice for Open pit lawn chairs space........ hmmm , you might need to stay awhile. May as well get a work permit while crossing the border.

Day one in my " steel plant / just some crusty looking factory " .... I think I found my center piece already! A 6" stainless steel exhaust pipe suddenly looks like a smoke stack?....already has the rusted , crusty look to it and haven't touched a thing

[Cooper]

I'm going to try and refurbish the undercarriage. Rollers are getting pretty loose and wheels need new bushings. She got well used and abused this summer. The Riverlot sand soil is great when wet/damp but hard when dry. And it's riddled with roots. That sandy silt is like running in liquid sandpaper. But if it's getting hauled to Canada it will be 100% I cringe at the idea of ever having to make new tracks!!!!!

[bigford]

coop that 3 of us you think i can get into Canada with out the wife!!!
a week of messing with Mario, i wouldn't miss it!!!
did the cat get a new pipe?? or you just stealing parts off the machines for the hobby??

Well... The 725 ADT Rock truck sounds a lot different without the pipe but didn't seem like anyone noticed the difference

Rest assured, I asked the boss if I could take pipe and explained why..... I make my boss laugh on a regular basis. Better than making mad right?

[Exclusive RC]

If they can get away from the wives, I already got the 2 thumbs up to head out! Lets make it happen! Ill bring the Jersey "CATS"

[RCP57]

3758KM from my house to Inuvik NWT or 3837KM to Mario's house.

Trip to Inuvik-

Pros- Great trip with my wife. Hunting, fishing, great scenery and no people to speak of. Driving through Northern BC and YT is my favorite place next to home. Been wanting to go back since the last time in 13.

Cons- Bugs if we go again in August, hunting for birds is closed, been there before(Inuvik) and although we loved the journey the final destination was less than desirable. Unless of course you enjoy drug addicts giving you the stink eye while you order pizza at North Mart.

Trip to Mario's

Pros- Never traveled across Canada, never met Mario or anyone else I'm friends with on here. A big group of guys to BS and play with would be a blast.

Cons- Too many cities to drive through, it's a long ways to travel with the toys, never met Mario or anyone else I'm friends with on here...

decisions, decisions...lol
