I'm watching your conversation about planning a "get-together". That's what Searchers, ToolManRoy and myself did last year. We planned a 3 day weekend "camp-out" in Northern California and thought for sure it would be just us three and our spouses. We ended up with 21 Montanas signed up (16 actually came) and had a fabulous time!
At this point, we have 28 Montanas signed-up for next year.
It sounds like you have alot of interest already.... here's to an awesome "get-together" in the Southeast!
