SkymonkeyONE 4 #1 July 31, 2001 Not that any other "regulars" are from anywhere near here, but I am hoping that one of you "lurkers" out there would be interested in splitting gas with my wife and I in our RV from Fayetteville, NC to Quincy. We plan on leaving this Friday night or Saturday morning and staying until after the completion of the PPPB swoop competition on the 11th. We intend to drive straight through, both ways if possible. I MUST be back here on the 12th, because I fly to Key West again on the 13th. Interested? Call my cell: (910)273-6291. Also, if you are along the way (we are going I-40 over to I-77N to I-64, etc) we could pick you up. Chuck Blue Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jfields 0 #3 August 1, 2001 Quotefrom Fayetteville, NC Chuck, I feel your pain. I love North Carolina, but Fayetteville itself leaves a lot to be desired. When the local concept of culture is strip joints and pawn shops, it is time to move out smartly. Perhaps you are on the more scenic side of post, but I wouldn't put Bragg in for "Army's Loveliest Base" awards. And my post-Army residence in Maryland is hardly on your way.Have fun in Quincy!JustinMember of the Whuffo Conversion Team Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ClayFowler 0 #4 August 1, 2001 JFields: WTFO? Fayetteville is a Diamond on the East Coast. What would a town be without a few thousand grunts, 400 Titty bars, 956 Pawn Shops (for said grunts to hock there stuff), and ONE KICKASS Drop Zone! I love that town. So many Army wives out on the town while hubby is on TDY. LMAO What a place!"I want to fly like a silly angel, Lean for the sky, straight into the sun"-FuelClay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkymonkeyONE 4 #5 August 1, 2001 QuoteFayetteville is a Diamond on the East CoastFayetteville is what you make of it. I have been here since 1984 and can't complain. I am five minutes from water skiing, 20 minutes from a righteous DZ, 100 miles from Myrtle Beach, and four hours from the mountains and skiing. I am also right on I-95 and all thus close to everything on the East Coast. True, the average Joe just sits around and bitches about it for three years then moves out smartly, but those of us "homesteaders" find the good in it. While people joke about this place, most of the people in my line of work and who I skydive with make their most important friends and contacts here. While I do not plan on retiring in North Carolina, I will have a very hard time leaving Raeford. None of this has any bearing on the topic of my post, though, does it? You people need to find someone to ride with me to Quincy, damnit! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites ClayFowler 0 #6 August 1, 2001 I didnt mind my two years in Fayettenam. I made some great friends and learned to skydive! Got drunker than snot at Kitty's Place on a regular basis. Spent who know's how much money (at $5 a pop) on seeing the bartenders tits. They were nice but it was more the point that she would do it for $5 that made me laugh histerically!Yep Chuck, leaving Raeford certainly sucked. I cant wait till Labor Day to come visit! P.S. Whatever you do, DO NOT, SAY AGIAN, DO NOT, post pics of the Monkeybago on this site. It will not help in your search for passengers! Most people are of a weak heart!
