Title: Forestdale Meltdown II - Saturday night 9/9/17 6:30 PM
Post by: KrisCook on September 08, 2017, 11:27:36 AM
Someone's having a birthday that ends in zero.  That's about all I want to say about that.

I have a big back yard that is just begging for a party.

A party like this:



Now, in those long-ago days, I didn't have Dad to take care of, so it didn't matter how much tequila I accidentally drank while we were spitting it into the fire.  I have him now, so I won't be quite as stupid.  But this is your chance to meet the elusive Yeti, as well as LawnmowerRG, Chitza, and Buzz.  If you're not doing anything better this Saturday night, come on up to Forestdale and hang with the cool kids, in front of a fire that just begs for tall tales to be told.

My driveway is gravel and not huge to turn around in, but you can bear to the left when you ride into it (downhill a little - my house is lower than the road) and ride on into the back yard.  Park anywhere, then when you decide to leave, you can just continue around the house and ride on up my front yard onto the road.  I'll show you where it's best to go, and I think any bike can easily do it, no matter how big or how wet the grass.  If you joined BamaRides since I became homebound caring for Dad, I want to meet you, and I won't be able to do it on a ride.  So I am inviting you to come to me!  I'm ordering Pizza Hut pizza.  So if you want something cultured to eat, bring your own sushi/whatnot.

  Feel free to PM me.  Hope to see you all.

Bring some midgets.

For those of us who can only be there in spirit (as opposed to those of you who will be in the spirits), will we be watching on a 3 Years blog Pay Per View special? ;)

I could probably set a live feed - but it would be MUCH cooler if everyone showed up in person

I am a bit confused though.  :-[

You look to young to be 30.  ;)

Thank you to everyone who came out and gave me the best birthday I've ever had. 
I didn't get a picture of anyone who showed up after dark - Andy, Lynn, Rodney... I had forgotten where my phone was, by then.  :)
It was fantastic to see you guys.   
Here are the pictures I did manage to get:

I'll have to make another post with the rest, since Photobucket has somehow gotten stuck and I can't pull any more links. 
Apologies for my very bad picture taking skills.   :o

Thanks for the great party.  Happy birthday.

Thanks for putting us all to shame throwing tomahawks.  And thanks for the sharpening job!  I'm going to laugh when we cut Don's power cord with one of them.   ;D

I hate that I didn't find this post prior to the party.

Great to meet you yesterday!  We'll do it again before too much longer - keep an eye on the forum.  It's never a good idea to go too long without putting eyeballs on it.   You never know what we're gonna cook up.
