Alaska Bombers March Meeting...

Biodiesel in Boise?

heck yeah. invite all the cummins guys ya want :)



here the dir

The directions for those coming from the west. When you get to Caldwell, and you get off at exit 27, you'll make a right turn, go about 3/4 mile, then make another right toward Greenleaf (there's a sign). The next turn is Farmway to your left (south). This is tricky because it is not obvious and easily missed. Greenleaf road is 4 lane with a center turn lane. Farmway is about . 8 mile down the road toward Greenleaf. There is no stop sign or lights. Look for a yellow diamond sign on your right by the curb indicating a road is intersecting from your left. Under the diamond it says "Farmway". The actual road is a few hundred feet beyond. Watch for a business on your right that says "Propane" on a big yellow sign on the roof, then immediately start looking for the road sign just beyond. Hit your left-hand signal shortly and begin getting ready to turn.



After that it is clear sailing. Go down Farmway about 4 miles (straight) to the next stop. Turn right (west) on state hiway 55. In about 4 miles it will bend left (south). If its still light you'll see Lizard Butte ahead a few miles down the road. Just past the butte is the right-hand bend toward Marsing you'll want to miss - just go straight. There's a stop sign. Go a short distance, the road bends left, then another short distance to the first right (Lloyd Lane). 3rd house on your left.



anothr choice from the west is take hwy 95 which is just inside idaho border near ontario. take hwy 95 south go thru parma, wilder, by homedale, then thru marsing to the east side by lizard butte. past the river turn right on marsing rd. lloyd lane is next right



If you're coming from the east, take exit 35 in Nampa. This we call the sugar factory exit. You'll see it off to your right. Turn right off the exit, go to the factory and turn left (west). Once this road crosses over the freeway and Nampa-Caldwell Blvd (traffic light) it becomes state hiway 55. It's a good 10 miles from there to where the road bends and you see the butte, but it's straight accross the valley to that point.



For those of you into GPS, here's something for you to consider:



Farmway road/Greenleaf road intersection:

N 43* 40' 10. 5"

W 116* 42' 43. 6"



State hiway 55/Farmway road intersection:

N 43* 36' 15. 1"

W 116* 42' 43. 7"



Harold's:

N 43* 32' 18. 6"

W 116* 47' 00. 0"
 
Ok. I guess my buddy isn't coming, his fiance is coming down from Oregon this weekend.



I might end up just staying Saturday. It's still a bit chilly for tent camping. Depends on how I feel. What is planned for Sunday?



I'm not too familar to a "bomb" party... like the KDP... is that something Harold charges to fix? or is this all free? I'm sure I can fix it myself, though would be nice to have the "pros" help me.

I don't know if that would be a good idea... ... . a bunch of guys eating chili and drinking beer then standing next to an open flame... . that's a natural gas explosion waiting to happen :eek: :-laf
 
Might end up being Sunday I will be able to go. Might have to work Saturday, not sure yet. Will make it an 85hr week if I work Saturday. Yuck!



What time is stuff going to start on Saturday. I you ol' timers (hehe :D ) like to wake up before the roosters.

Last I heard, there was a 12v or 2 needing a timing adjustment, right Muddy? I plan to be there tomorrow for that. Lon won't make it - he's out of town until tomorrow night, unless he gets done today and catches an early flight.

Ok, well I'm not working tomorrow. Pulled a 2AM-5PM shift today so I'd have tomorrow off. I'm going to come back home Saturday night. I need Sunday to work on some stuff and sleep before I go back to work.
 
So how is this working out? Is there a waiting list for shop time? Sounds like there's going to be alot of people I was thinking it was 10-20 people at most. If there's no time to help me with the KDP, no big deal. I'll just it at home sometime.

Yup was fun. I'm glad I was able to get the KDP done, thanks to Steve on that. Oh, I put some $$ in to the donation cup for that tab since Harold didn't want $$ for it.



Also Muddy if you see Harold and want to grab a set of those fan wrenches, I'll bring money for them at the dyno meet, $20 I think??



Now that I think of it, anyone have contact info for Mike, the bumper guy? He was telling me he had a few stock bumpers in decent shape and I didn't think of getting his phone #.
