    Looking forward to a local meetup. I upgraded from an 08 ORDCSB to a 20 ORDCLB and want to see what other locals have done to their 3Gs. And crack a few cold ones with like minded folks.

    Does Hidden Falls have a place to inflate tires on your way out? I don’t have an air compressor yet but not sure if I should drive around with 20 PSI tires until I find a working air pump. Every gas station I go to seem to have broken air pumps.

    Flightline at Al Dhafra would hit 144 in June. We were quite content to not be there come August.

    I’m sure. Water temp coming out of the gulf was 90+. In port, there was no cold shower.
