Atlanta Lake Lanier Meet- July 1st 2007
#125
just waitiing...
Well, I am now just sitting at my dad's office waiting on the UPS truck to arrive with the overnighted alternator. Once it gets here they said it would take them about 1 to 1.5 hrs to install and then I will be on my way. See everyone shortly.

yeah, yeah. The lake without a boat would just be a sweaty ass parking lot meet. Anybody bringing a cooler? I might bring a small one. Ryan is bringing a wake skate, but it'd be much cooler if someone could get ahold of a decent wakeboard (with large bindings)
91 degrees all weekend. Rain on Saturday, mostly sunny on Sunday.
Gainesville weather

omg...
So I had to replace my alternator right? Well I am at the auto parts sotre picking it up and as I am about to back up a fucking idiot side swipes the back of my car and then hauls ass off. I tried to chase him but I couldn't get out into the road quick enough. Regardless to say, he got away. I filed a police report and figured it was just another expense that I had to pay on my own for someone else's stupidity. Once I am half-way to Atlanta all bummed out that my car is going to be all shitty for the meet I get a call from the auto parts store telling me that the dumbass came back to return something he bought before he hit my car. He gave me the license plate number and everything so no I get my new bumper out of the dead beat. Ugh.... Anyways, I am here at my buddies appartment about a 3 minute walk from the Lenox Mall and looking forward to Sunday (just please disregard the back bumpers condition).

Sorry to hear all of the troubles you've encountered with your car so far, Mike. At least the a-hole will be paying for his hit and run.
Are we going to eat at the lake or would it be best to bring our own food and eat at the picnic areas there? I need to know so that we can get some food ahead of time. Also, is a 2PM pre-meet at Lenox Mall OK with everyone? As far as the weather goes, wunderground.com says that there's a 30% chance of rain on Sunday. I just hope it doesn't rain at all and I need to get my car washed before the meet.

I don't know where the closest hand wash place is around the Lenox Mall area, but I was looking at Mammoth car wash and detail salon in Alpharetta since it's closer to me. Here's their address if you're interested. 255 S Main St, Alpharetta, GA 30004-1913 For $20 (that includes tip), that's not bad at all for a wash and tire shine.
For the meet location at Lenox Mall, let's meet at the back entrance of Macy that's on the Lenox Rd. side.

Gonna do my best
Hey everyone, i will do my best to make the meet, but i'm on call for weekend duty. Technically i'm suppose to stay within halk and hour of the base, just in-case they need me to come in. I may just go ahead and just drive to the Lennox Mall from my house instead of going to mu mom's house in Decatur first. I just need a physical address for the mall if anyone has it. I'm only on call untill 6pm, so if they don;t call me by 1pm, i hope i'll be good to go. T or anyone in Atl shoot me a good address or city the mall is in so i can mapquest from here in Warner Robins.
#137
Yeah Mike, meet on top of the roof of the parking deck.
Will, the best way to get to Lenox Mall is to stay on 75/85N towards 400N and get off on the first exit where it says Lenox Rd. At the light, take a right. Go through traffic lights and at the third traffic light, take a right into Lenox Mall. Bear left and take the first right and you'll be at the meet spot. Give me a call if you get lost. And it sucks being on call. I hope no one calls you. If they do, don't you have a back up?

Hey guys. I'm about to post directions to the lake spot. I sent Ty a text
message informing him that I'm not coming to the mall for the ride out. The place we're going to is called Charleston Park. It's the place where we store my boat at. It's a small park that has lots of water front parking, a few places to bar-b-q, and a place to swim. It made the most sense to me to have it there, due to the fact that there would be no extra effort to get me over to my boat, and still have my car at the meeting spot.
Here's the info on the park, including address for you Map Quest junkies.

Actually, this link has a Map Quest trail on it that shows a trail from 400.

Alan, Henryk, our ladies, and I will be there in the morning. So some one give me a call when yous guys are getting off of 400. My number is 770-856-5908

If there's a spot to BBQ, I'll bring some meat to grill along with some hot dogs. We just need someone to bring the buns (hamburger and hot dogs) and other things. And the directions seem fairly simple enough from 400.
I guess that leaves Mike, Will, Zac (haven't heard from him in awhile), and I to meet up at the mall and drive over to the lake spot.

Damn, that sucks to hear, Henryk. Maybe next meet whenever we can get a date/time scheduled.
That'll be fine, Mike. We'll get others to bring drinks.
Zac, will you be able to make it by 2PM at the rendevous spot?
Corey, I haven't heard much from you since the last post. Can you still make it?

I'm not gonna be able to make it guy's.. I have a blown headlight due to condensation and i'm still on warranty.. So in order to get it fixed for free, i have to work on my car tomorrow.. I have to take my CAI off and open up my headlights and put the diffuser's back in to get ready for carmax.. It's gonna be an all day project for me.. I hate to do it, but it's better than paying for new bulbs and having to wait on them to get delivered.. I'm gonna have them look at my tranny while i'm there too.. I just wish i could make this meet, i was so looking forward to it too.. Take some good pix!!
We need to do another meet in like october or something, or maybe even sooner than that..

I'm gonna make it
Hey everybody, i'm going to meet at the Lenox mall at 2pm with whomever else is meeting there. What do i need to bring? I don't think my wife is coming, so it will just be me and my son probably. Just let me know what else we need, and i can swing by the store and pick up something before we head out. How far is the Lake from the Mall?
#149
Will, could you bring drinks and cups? I doubt we'll need utensils since it's mostly finger food.
Ramojr, we'll definitely have to do another meet for those who can't make it today.
Will, that'll be cool. I used MSN Map to route our drive and we'll be taking 400 all the way up to exit 17. It depends on how fast we drive.

It was fun...
It was fun fellas... I am about to head back to St. Simons now... I'm looking forward to the next one. Maybe we won't forget the radio and misc grill accessories. Anyways, I will post pics once I photoshop them up some! lol
#158
Atlanta folks, I am moving down there sometime this fall, can't wait to kick it with the folks in the greater ATL area. At least down there, you can have meets year round, not like here in Colorado!!
I'll need the hookup for good places to get work done, I prefer Discount Tire Co and places that do good alignments and dealerships that do good work (still under ext warranty) PM me if you can help me out with that info. Also, I may be in town during the meet, so I may roll through with my rental car..but I do have a TL here in CO..I really do! Thanks y'all!

I'll upload the pics when I get home from work today. I got lazy after we had gotten back. LOL
Good turn out, guys! Let's have another one again when it's not quite as humid . . . hopefully another weekend holiday like Labor Day.

Hey Guys, I hate that I missed the meet. Ty, i thought that we were having a baby, but turns out that we had yet ANOTHER false alarm. Nothing like rushing to the hospital for them to put the wife on the monitor, tell her to walk the halls, wait a few hours (conveniently past 2:00) and then tell you to go home. Oh well, what do you do? I hope that you guys had a great time and I look forward to the next meet.
I REALLY wanted to get on that boat!
Ty,
I appreciate your message brother. It's nice to be hooked up with such great fellas.
