Post some of the generic pics. Rest will show up tomorrow sometime.

BTW the website code is pretty old..and i never even realized it does not work well in fire fox. Will fix that up shortly. But, you might have to use IE to view the pics for now.

Since #75 is closed at Morris due to flood waters, we all have to take alternate routes. There are 3 routes, but I will only list 2 here. The 3rd is gravel roads, and may have some water. I have tried both of these in the past week, and unless something drastic has occured, they should both still be open. If you have any concerns, there are two numbers you can call about flood information. The Morris flood number is 204-746-7325. The Winnipeg flood number is 204-945-2354. Both should...

Bring lawn chairs if you do not want to sit on the ground.

Does anyone have updates on getting from Winnipeg to Altona?

Its very easy for you guys. If the roads are all open...

Head North on the i-29 for about 150 miles. You will get to customs. Continue north on the highway (it will now become the highway #75) for 5 miles. Turn left (west) onto Highway #421. Travel 9 miles west, then turn right (North) into a village called New Bergthal. The farm will be on your right side. It's the first yard that has a 'lived in' house.

Google maps finds it like this Fargo ND to New Bercthal...

The 3 of us coming from Fargo haven't been there before, so could you post directions to "the farm"? or an address? I wonder if my GPS will guide me there...

Thanks Brent!

Ok....so, just to make sure everyone is clear, the comp will be at the farm. Alot of you have been there before, but if you have not, i can post clearer direction in here.

I will wait until closer to the weekend, as some of the roads are flooded between Winnipeg/Altona/Grand Forks. And these conditions should improve by the weekend.

For all the people coming from Winnipeg, maybe there is a chance you could drive together??? Especially for the new people.

I will...

1) 240 Farmers Walk max distance, turns at 80' head to head
2) Log C&P for reps, 200lbs, 10", Head to Head
3) Progressive wheel barrow, 80' Best time, or distance

5) Medley Keg-220lbs 20',...
