TC, 10-4 on the mid morning contact.  George63 will be riding with me, turns out he lives 5 miles away.  He has a gene and hammer drill and he is checking his bit inventory.  Leaving the Joliet area at 7am. It's definelty on now!  Truck is already loaded.  Can't wait.
 
Hotel would probably be best for Friday night.  I will also be staying at the pit Saturday night as well as George63.

As far as history goes.......we will have to figure that out, maybe D.O.M then if your insisting?  I will do what I can.  Reveille.

I'll be at "Alton" now.  I was thinking about driving down on Saturday morning.  Let me know if you think otherwise.  Can I pitch a tent there or should I plan on sleeping in my car?  I have a place to stay in St. Charles MO, but there is no real direct bridge route to there.

I will be there as a shooter with three youngsters. Live about 40 minutes or so away on the Illinois side in Greene County, can't help Friday as I have to work but, I have shot there before on a CC class, water was there then also, thought at that time maybe a pump in a low spot and enough discharge hose might work?.  Also, Wanted to offer if there are last minute needs of something from town let me know and I can grab it on my way to the shoot.  Thanks for the work you put in on this.

Steve, Take MO 96 to the Grafton ferry, about 15 minutes from St Charles. Then take IL 100 north, left turn after coming of the ferry. 15 miles or so you will
come to IL16 Left turn again take first right, about two miles range will be at the old quarry on the right

MB, TC is planning on the Instructor Dinner Meeting Friday night.  You can definitely set up camp or sleep in your car if you don't like solid rock on your back.  See you soon.  Reveille.
