I'm going to a tractor pull the 3rd and on the 4th going to a combine, minivan, and car demolition derby along with watching a parade.

Getting drunk. No sure where. Don't care where. Yeah. If people want to, I could talk to JET and Andy see if they want to have a party here. We have a huge field across the street to light off fireworks. Not sure if its legal or not though.

Jet if we have it at your place I'll bring my Zagi's and we have Battles!
Hey speaking of which If I bring you something for them. Can you machine a copy of it for me?
Basically the stock Zagi's just use a plastic propeller that you push onto the end of an Electric motor.
Well every time you land or crash with the Throttle still going you melt the plastic on the propeller making them un-usuable. (ie: you have to spend more to get new ones)
So what one of my heli guys did (has his own layth..sp) he fabbed up something that you basically attach to the end of the motor that you attach thet propller to instead of the motor shaft itself.
Anyrate all it is bacially something that you can put a screw into. So when you crash the propellor doesn't come off, and doesn't get wrecked. Well unless you really crash in which case you'll crack the plastic propeller. (which happens sometimes)
Like when your trying to see how many loops you can do around a goal post and you Mess up. Or if you try to use a Flag pole as a Pylon for racing, or when you play jump rope with your Zagi but miss and land on the propeller, you know the typical things you do with Zagi's.

Anyone want to step up to the plate and host an Independence Day gathering? I'm all up for grilling out and drinking better all day... Tossing around the football and frisbee, and above all, BLOWING SHIT UP!!! It'd be great to get everyone together and have a good time.
If people are willing to pitch in for food, I can cook it up. Most likely burgers, brats and corn on the cob, maybe a crock pot of baked beans if there's enough interest.

Hey I had to ask. Should I bring my Zagi's? I'll have to remember how to use them. (ie: I use my heli radio to control 1 of them, and I can't remember how to use switch to a different model, etc)
Speaking of Bringing stuff - what all do we need to bring?
