I will be make the drive down to the LCR Saturday Morning at dawn, shovel, brooms, wheelbarrows, whatever in hand.
I will be helping 1GR, OdT, Stokes, Vader and the other LCR guys their families, friends, whoever. Sign up here so we can get organized. I am sure there is gonna be a lot of mess in a few of our buddies homes. If your nasty ass has ever been to OdT's house and enjoyed his hospitatlity, then I am sure we can count on you to be there to help him, his family, his neighbors......whomever. Sign up in this thread. IM me for my cell so we can get this rolling. Mods can I get a 1 week Tack? |
|
Tacked.
I can lend out a 5000 watt Generac Generator if someone wants to me me around Bellingham. |
|
We had something planned, but will try to clear it tomorrow. I have an old wheelbarrow that I can donate to the cause.
I'll probably hinder more than help but this is our chance to finally show a little appreciation for 1GR giving us crabs every year. |
|
Saturday plans cancelled, I can head down that morning as well.
|
|
The Kooter clan can be there Sat. Morning (If Kooter has to work it will just be me, I will try to find a place for the kids to go)
|
|
If the highway is open and help is needed, I'm there on Saturday.
|
|
If any supplies/repair materials are needed let me know......I can't get there myself due to proprty damage here needing resolved but if anyone from arround SNOCO is going down I can donate any fixit materials i can.
|
|
i may be able to come down on saturday, provided that my own property doesnt flood (still waiting for it). Ive only met one fellow arfcommer before, and I am always up for helping out other shooters. if you would like. i would need directions and a contact number. I see that a few of the guys from Sno county cant make it but are offering materials (if anyone can bring them down). i have a full size pickup if anyone needs something hauled. Im up in Monroe.
|
|
Well hate to deflate you guys but, it is not going to be needed for any of us. It is very appreciated though
|
|
Really?? All your places are fine? Edit after reading 1GR post below. |
|
|
Derrick's Dads's house got a a lot of water in it, and Stokes basement is filled to the rim. OdT's driveway is going to need some major repair. All and all everyone except Derrick's Dad did pretty well.
|
|
Will his dad need some help before cancelling the weekend help crew? |
|
|
Fine. I will buy a rake anyway and rake up my own debris... or wait for it to dry out and let the wind take care if it... one or the other. |
|
|
Derrick said they can handle it. Main thing is you can't get to his house anyway, the driveway is gone. |
|
|
OK, well it looks like the ARFCOM clean up crew is on hold, let us know if we can help in anyway.
|
|
|
I'd like to help but I'm going to a pro-support the troops rally that day!
|
|
If the plans aren't canceled, I will be taking my girlfriend to the airport on Saturday and can just continue on down to the LCR.
|
|
I'm going to the Gunshow in Puyallup this weekend... if you guys want to go by and clean up my yard, don't let me stop you.
Naw... we'll be OK. We're in Olympia for the week, and I'll go back down after the show to see what is going on. I don't really want to touch anything until we get the insurance guy out there. |
|
I can't make it but I have a spare honda generator (5kw) that I can loan out. IM me for details... Will I-5 be open by Saturday? |
|
A slight maybe...if you need to get South, I can help. As of tonight there was still 6' over close to a mile of I-5, they were getting ready to blow a levy tonight to let it back out |
|
|
|
I wish the best of luck to those of you who got creamed by the storms. Mommity's gone for the weekend, so, it would be a perfect opportunity for me to come help. But, I took a whack in the noggin with a steel door and can't do anything physical for a while. I suppose I could drive and watch.....
|
|
I hope the door knocked some sense into you! |
|
|
My phone has literally burnt right through batteries with the offers to help from so many arfcom members. Whoever out there who still thinks "it's just the internet", seriously needs to take another look. My hat is off to all of you. |
|
It is "just the internet"... Maybe there happens to be a some good people in this little corner of it! |
|
|
I'll be getting called up tomorrow by my unit to go fix generators, operate generators, drive trucks, or whatever else they can think of, so I won't be around saturday.
|
|
Anyone gonna be around mid day Saturday. Erex and I were thinking of making a tactical Makers Mark drop. Just to keep you boys warm.
|
|
Any chance you would want to swing by Renton to pick up a hitchhiker? |
|
|
Call me in the morning. Jackson has a Basketball game @ 9am, I should be on the road by 10:15 or so. |
||
|
There's the Ultimate Finale Live on Spike Tv tomorrow night....
We could make a tactical clean, drink and fight maneuver........ |
|
Are you guys still going to go down to help in the LCR? If so I will try to join you
|
|
|
|
how . Yon all have fun.
|
|
I'm thinking you are missing the gist of this thread. |
|
|
1Gunrunner, It is the whole NAVY thing... You have to talk real slow to those boys. |
||
|
What the Fuck?! |
|
|
Come to a January LCR and you will get crabs also. (you gotta pay for them though) |
||

I've never seen destruction like this in person. Unreal. It was quite incredible to see the people down here working hard and wasting no time at all in gutting houses and helping others clean up this disaster. A very humbling experience to say the least.
