Title: Classic...whos going?
Post by: JustinNC on March 21, 2011, 12:35:58 pm
without filtering through the Tennessee Classic thread....and then figuring out who's a knapper, I figured I'd post here.

Finally found out Id be able to go to the Classic. Which of ya'll rock beaters are going to be there? Looking forward to actually getting to see ya'll work your magic.

I'm not sure if I'll get to go this year or not-may not be able to get off work. Bummer. I've been for the last four-five years or so (I can remember the first year I went, I was the only guy in the pit beating on rocks, if you can believe it.)

Maybe for us NC or surrounding area persons who don't get to go, we can have a one day event close by here. Might make some of us feel a little better.

It looks like I might be able to make it.  My tent is a big ol' white canvas rendezvous tent and I don;t think I have room to bring it so I'l; have to figger something else out.  Watch for the redhaired yankee complaining about the heat and humidity!!!

Steve, tell them you have to be off to check up on a Lottery Number in Raleigh. Darn it, Man! I'm camping this year. And it sounds like some kind old "Readheaded stepchild critter" is going to show up, too? You can't miss this one.

yea plan to get wet and hope to be dry :)
 Id say about mid 50s at night and as high as 80 and as low as 65 day time.
It is TN and it is Spring so we do get some freak weather it could get into the 30s at night or it might not drop below 60 at night, its hard to tell.
