Anyone from Houston , San Antonio or Austin going to NABX? If you are, get with me so we can arrange for transportation of your gear. Depending on my plans and how many might be going I might have a seat available if you want to ride. I plan to drive there pulling a small enclosed trailer. I can drop by San Antonio or Austin on the way and pick you up or your gear.

Van,

As always.... You Rock!!!

Couldn't detour via Lincoln UK could ya.... thats a very nice offer there Van

... and to Vancouver, BC as well

I would if I can afford the fuel cost these days .. :o Seriously, I should have room so if any of you plan to fly there and can't transport your buggy .. I can help out. I was planning to take I-10 from Houston to Vegas so if you're on my route, would be happy to help a fellow pilot out.

you rock!!!

so thats no excuse not to come to NABX now for those along the way of Van's route

thx again

Wow Van, what an offer! Ugh. I sure would love to go. School is in the way, though... can't miss any days for reasons concerning my final exams...:flaming: Now I'm not one to easily give in to something so stupid like school & perfect attendance, especially when there's such an opportunity here... but I'm afraid I'd be fighting a losing battle by skipping. I need the attendance so I can be exempt from my finals and take a trip with my dad he's been planning for a while now. This post is like salting the wound but I sure do hope to attend NABX sometime in the near future! I am trying my best.

... unless you don't have a buggy . . . or a kite . . . or a job . . . oh wait
that should work out, eh? at least that one I fit now

Hey Van

I have made the drive to the desert several times and can help you on what route to take.

Great Susan!! Are you making the drive this year?? Sure would be cool if we could form a caravan

I would love to be able to go again this year. Just waiting to see what the gas prices are going to be in a few months.

Looks like it's gonna be last minute decision for me on NABX. I'm behind on a few projects and work and at home. Turns out the California ISO ( independent system operator) wants to pull data from all the wind turbines so they can forecast power production. The deadline was Jan. 31 and we missed that so now have to meet the hard deadline of March 31st. Unless I get everything done in time, I will end up in Palm Springs working instead of Ivanpah buggying. If I get lucky, I might be able to drive by and say HI.

Sorry to hear that, Van. I hope things change and you can make it.

Seanny, believe it or not that trip with your Dad is WAY more valuable than you can possibly imagine right now.
I would turn my back on every KFF for just one more trip with my Dad ! Enjoy it for me !
