Here we go! final tune up for Aquino! July 13th! A chance to test all those rebuilds and wonders everyone has been working on. Who knows, there may even be giants coming to the field... :-)
Anyone want to handle lunch?
As always mark the forum if you are coming out please...

Pizza always works for me. Also the field should be even better for next weekend's battle than last time, we are basically just finishing off some interesting changes tomorrow.

Looks like it will be warm and sunny on Saturday and with no chance of rain. So Friday looks good too so will be planning on going out around 4 to do final cleaning and set up the field for Saturday to save some time. Anyone who wants to come out and help is more than welcome!

Was on my way there at 4:ish, turned around at Northfield and Weber owing to a torrential downpour.

Lame excuse . I guess first thing tomorrow morning will be to get the rocks out of the channels so they can be driven in. Supposed to be fine the rest of the way and we know how fast the sun turns the field into the dry Italian countryside

No, I mean torrential; was worried the Tiguan would stall out the water was so deep and driving too quickly.
Gotta watch the splashback

Yes the radar showed a nasty cell go through the field area. Of course it couldn't miss St. Jacobs. They never do Field can handle those short storms now unlike a couple of months ago
