The 'It is Official Overland Expo East' thread

The Overland Bound Happy Hour on Saturday night was great! Lots of great folks!

That was a happy hour that turned into a party. Great to see that many members hanging out.

When you get a chance @Wawa Skittletits, check out the pictorial of overland expo east on expedition portal. They featured your Subaru down at the end of the pictoral.

Nice haha! I assume this is you?



Very cool rig! I had to grab a picture when I was walking around taking pictures in the low morning light.

The lights worked fine but I had an issue with one of the mounts. I learned that I need to add another single random tool to my kit since the Allen wrenches I carry don’t fit in the space available. With the help of @CFTAdventures I was able to get it straightened out and tightened back down.

Since I’d hate to rob one of my sets of a single Allen wrench I referred to my collection of baby furniture/pottery barn parts. Sure enough I found one the right size. Score one for the pack rat haha.

I'm going to guess that it will be September 28th - September 30th, 2018. But that is just a guess.

Same as mine, and what I have penciled in on the calendar.

[Geronimo_JK350]

several of us are at the french broad river campground. it's a great spot. not sure how much availability they have. but if you're looking for a place to hang out until the expo campground opens, come on over

How'd you like the French broad rover camp ground?

...is there an official OEE2018 thread?

SO jelly of that troopy. Love that thing.

I'm currently investigating the possibility of getting my grubby mits on a milsurp swiss G-Wagen. A company in Quebec imports them. Not likely to happen for me, but one can dream.
