It has been 2 years since I have seen my boys, and they had better all be there at some point and time!!!!!

It's been forever since I've flown.... so, can I pack full sized bottles of stuff as long as it's in the luggage that goes beneath the plane? Is it just he carry-on stuff that has restrictions?

It is fine in the checked-in bags, but remember they toss them around a lot. The last time Wendy did that she ended up washing hair crap out of her clothes. It would have been better for us to just buy it when we got to our dest.

Some airlines have a 50 lb per bag limit.

Don'ty forget alot of airlines are now charging you per bag!!

For those that have not gone to WCBF before can you (or Some others) provide some things that the newbies will NEED to bring? Chairs? for those camping, a little camp site stove?

willwren · Post by **willwren** » Mon Jul 14, 2008 11:47 am

Forget coffee pots. You'll either use one of my two small pots at the KOA, or drink out of my big pot when you get to my house each morning (there's usually car work going on EVERY DAY at my place).

Chairs, yes. You'll want to take them to the track also. Camp stove? Sure, but only if you plan to cook on it at the KOA. There's a couple evenings we have dedicated dinner plans (per tradition) but other evenings we either order pizza (they deliver to KOA) or snack. All up to you.

Beer.

Cell charger, and a couple extension cords if need be (or an outlet strip). Some sites have power, most don't. Whoever does will be VERY popular for charging.

BEER. Can't have too much.

Ice chest. If you have an extra but don't think you'll need it, but have room, BRING it. When we go to the dragstrip, we tend to take ALOT of bottled water and full ice bags for superchargers between runs. I still have some people's ice chests here, but we almost always BARELY have enough, and it sucks to have to move food around from chest to chest to get enough.

BEER. Or did I mention that already?

Garbage bags. Firewood if you have room. FRS radios. We use the hell out of them. Especially when in a convoy to/from the dragstrip.

MINIMAL tools. Just road tools. Got everything else here already.

My wife wont let me eat pizza. =( Tune Black beans and rice for me.

Sweet, whats the Flag dance D= haha.

two more things . . . SUNSCREEN & HAT . . . not much shade at the track

PontiacMom · Post by **PontiacMom** » Mon Jul 14, 2008 12:06 pm

Tracy....Airlines don't like any liquid on their planes that are carried on. Put them in your luggage, in a Ziplock baggie and they will be fine. Try to keep your bags light...wear shoes that are easy to take on and off, be prepared for waits, and don't bring any drinks with you, wait until you are through security...We will talk about this when you get to Oregon

Echo SSEI · Post by **Echo SSEI** » Mon Jul 14, 2008 2:08 pm

I'll have two extra coolers this year (instead of the traditional 1). This one was donated by Ben. It's pretty big, but if I pack stuff in it, I should be able to squeeze it in.

Vince, I would also make sure you bring some warm clothes and a blanket. You may not need them, but nights could be chilly (especially for those of us coming from 110* highs and 90* lows). If it ends up being warm at night, you may want an old bed sheet so you don't have to suffer inside the sleeping bag. I have two FRS radios so you and Tarah can take one when we meet up in Coachella/Indio, CA. If you have your own, bring them in case someone else needs them. The KOA has a swimming pool so bring extra towels if you don't want to use the same towel from the pool and showers. Other than what's already been mentioned, just the typical stuff you would bring to any campground that happens to have full bathroom facilites, showers, a pool, and a laundrymat.

Um........yeeeeah, right

I will admit that it has a certain.....flair to it. And it is without a doubt, an integral part of every WCBF.

Yes......and you should be.

The Flag dance is a beautiful artistic and cultural expression of our bond as Bonneville Brothers

Think of it as a male lap dance to the masses

willwren · Post by **willwren** » Mon Jul 14, 2008 8:15 pm

It helps to know in advance (but not much) that there is no nudity involved in the dance.
