so I guess I'm a gonna go nose in, unload it, unhook, move it out of the way, turn the truck around and then re-hook it so I can drive out when I leave?
Or just drive it out the other side on the newly tooled emergency exit.

a bit of a bumpy ride for sure, but it is a straight through
Doesn't Scotti have one of these?
An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.
That'd be a reversible dual hitch with both ball sizes

Well my friends:
We seem to be straying down an obscure and worrisome path. I think the reversible trailer hitch option that Chris has provided might be quite useful. It does look rather familiar and useful look about it.
I can help my brother out if things get a little crooked on the long and winding road up the drive. I cannot say I am expert in coming in the back way but I have experimented with it and things seemed to work out quite well for all involved. You have to be careful and go slow, cause if you go too fast you could end up hurting someone. I think you should give it a try and if it is not working out for you I can jump in and finish things off.
I have to agree with Don. If you get yourself all tied up I am sure there will be enough people to watch and cheer you on or we can bring it in by hand.
Dave: I am going to be bringing my little trailer is the spot I used last year still available?
See you then

The back roadhas been completely reworked in the last month.And Rowntree Rd got a major redo as well

Depends on Daniel. He currently has 2 Volvos there. If they are still there we'll pop you up the front (which has also been heavily reworked.

If one is a wagon, then Scott is all set.

My dear trailer park boys, I really must take more time to explain the situation. You see, the trailering is not the obstacle here. I admit I had forgotten that the driveway continues up and around so if I come up the regular way and then put it in 4WD when I leave, no problem. There's just no way I wanted to attempt backing up the driveway with a short hitch and an old clutch. Dave if you figure that's workable then I will go back to getting good night sleeps.
If I have to, I can come up the regular way and when it's time to go, go out the rough route, turn around and come back the rough route and then load the trailer. That way I won't be bouncing stuff around so much. Dave, Chris and I have a vested interest in a pair of Onken style speakers, n'cest pas?

Oh, easily Don. It's a 4x8. We could probably pick it up and turn it around. It's going to double as my tent this year.If your trailer is really tiny, there'll be enough bodies to push it, maybe ?

Wow my brotha:
It looks like the love shack got a major up grade. You will have room to install bunk beds in that baby.
Maybe we should just hang out in the love shack with those really big speakers and enjoy the liver quaking feel of deeeeeeep bass.
Thanks Dave:
I am sure we can find a nice spot for my little snuggly buggly. I do like that spot on the other side though.
I will try and make it down on the Friday so I can help with the set up.
Any word on Jess

Moved to the big smoke for the job. Was working thru a job issue and completely forgot last years FEST. That job wasn't suited to him, so he was unemplyed for awhile, last call i got he had just scored a job with an interesting software firm...

Sure, we can have shoot out of the big boys down below.
uh oh . . . looks like my normal tent location may not be optimum.
