FBT (Flyinbowtie) and I have been talking about a get together with the HB'ers at Hot August Nights in Reno this coming August.

Its usually around the week of August 10th and we will have more info on lodging, camping etc around the Feb timeframe.

Its basically a HUGE car show with lots of HotRod activities etc and some discussion on another board about it got us thinking that it might be a good place for some of us to get together, non boating deal.  

Apparently I'm the last of a dying breed with most of the Nor Cal  people gone from this board, but we would love to have any of you that are interested.

Traci

Got your message Traci. Just what I need, another place to yak...thanks tho for the invite :good

Yeah, HAN is is kick, we are looking at staying out at Boomtown, which is just west of Reno about 5 miles via I-80.
There is a hotel, an RV Park with full hookups, and several restuarants in the casino.
The new Cabela's Outfitters opens 11-16-07 and is right next door, to Boomtown. Cabelas is another cool place, darn near a destination on it's own. The best info I have right now is that Boomtown begins taking reservations for the HAN weekend on Feb. 1. The HAN deal runs for several days, we like to get there Wed. night to get a good nights sleep so that we can be at the Swap meet/ car corral early in the am when the best deals go.
I have stayed at my son's apartment in the past, but it looks like he may not be there next year, if that is the case we will load the camper on the truck and stay in Boomtown's RV park, & run back and forth into Reno in another vehicle, I don't know if it will be the '40 or not at this point.
I'll post up more info when I have it.
