Road Trip To Krewe du Smoke
« Reply #-1 on: March 24, 2014, 06:34:58 PM »
Tee and I are planning our road trip to the Krewe du Smoke in NOLA next month.  We are figuring on two days down and two days back for travel.  This will allow us some flexibility on both ends of the trip to meet and greet some of the LTBBQ brethren.  We would like to see if we can “coordinate” a lunch/dinner with some of the LTBBQ cast of characters.   

We are leaving Western North Carolina on Thursday, April 17 and heading towards Huntsville, AL area (TMB/Tommy’s turf).  Our return trip will start on Tuesday, April 22.  Right now it will take us somewhere close to tig4942/Terry Gartman’s stomping grounds.  We would like to pick up some fresh shrimp, if at all possible.  Hint, hint!!

We are open to any suggestions.  Let us know if we can get together on the two travel days on either end of this road trip.

Heck Gus stop over at the house, I not that far from you. Tee and Art would be near I565 so heading south would be easy

All depends on what day and time we are talking about and if I can get away from work.

You guys have totally screwed up your schedule. Tuesday, April 22nd, is SWMBO's birthday and the day we arrive in New Orleans. Lunch is a possibility; Happy Hour at Luke (3-6 PM) is mandatory. The 23rd is optional but recommended. Make it so.

If you are headed down I-65 you will pass about a mile from my house in Hoover. Give me  holler.

I told my wife about your reference to SWMBO.  She decided that she likes it, too.

Tommy, Gus and Ken:

Looks like 6 hours + - of windshield time on the first leg of our trip. We will probably leave out as soon as Art gets his hair washed, styled and blow-dried on 17 April. My guess is that we will Hit Huntsville  somewhere after lunch and before happy hour, have dinner - and find a hotel for the evening, then drive on into N.O. the following day.

I understand this to be true. Unfortunately for you, any link between your time and my money is totally specious.

I got room in the real tree basket for 4 hurricanes. In trouble at 4.5mph  :o

No wheelbarrow needed.

Drew - we will call the guards at the border and tell 'em you are o.k. - and to let you in. But I am concerned that you might fall into bad company if you have Pap as your traveling companion...But, at least someone can hold the wheel while the other opens the beer.... ;D ;)
