PNW Picnic - SE Caravan

[Erick]

Hey, I got 2 one gig SD cards to fill up during the trip, and I can keep pouring the video stuff on the laptop. :)

[PiercedE30]

Yea, I've got one 1g sd card and I will be unloading the camera every night onto the laptop. If the batteries hold up, then I can average about an hour and a half of video or about 800 pictures for every gig of memory.

[Erick]

Yup, I got two rechargeable batteries (one for each camera) + two CR-V3s to hold me off until I can re-charge them if necessary. :)

Get yourself a power inverter to help keep your batteries charged while driving across country. They can be bought for cheap (under $50 for a 400watt) and can even find them at Lowes & Home Depots. Great thing to have for sure.

[PiercedE30]

I've got one that I run my laptop off of since the battery only lasts like an hour.

hey guys, curt is here, sleeping :)

erick when are you leaving to come up to GA?

also ive driven in snow many times, you both have lsd's and will probably be better off then i am. regardless, if there is snow, we will go slow.

[PiercedE30]

Elliot, you want me to bring you a S3.73?

[Erick]

Yeah I got one of those inverters... only one outlet though so it'll be changing between my MegaSquirt laptop, my actual laptop, my phone charger, etc :p

Elliot, I am hoping to leave by noon tomorrow. I still got plenty to do though :(

Same here, I get to pull my exhaust off and grind down all of my shitty welds and reweld it all to fix the exhaust leak that's pre-O2 sensor.

Elliot, you want me to bring you a S3.73?

good deal erick, just give me a call when you are on your way

[PiercedE30]

Assuming that I have one off of a car, 150 bucks and it's yours.

[Erick]

Guys, took me until 10pm to leave KO. No work done on the car tonight. I'm fairly well delayed. Earliest take off time for me is tomorrow afternoon. That'd put me in St.Louis by midnight next day. I'm trying to get some rest now because it might be interesting from here on out.

[PiercedE30]

OH man, good luck. Let me know what you want to do about meeting in St. Louis (when, where, etc.).

[E30trash]

This is Curt.

Whats the plan? We were thinking of mobbing up to St. Louis when you got up here Eric. Assuming as much we were planning on leaving St Louis by 6pm Sunday. Allowing us a night drive through the most boring states, holding up at a hotel in Salt Lake City. E-Liot has gotta to get the feck outta here, and I have an appointment in Portland Wednesday morning.

Keep us posted as we are planning on leaving either Sat night when you get here or early early Sunday morning.
