Other Notes: Well, we weren’t expecting another trip to Indiana with the crew so soon. Dylan from Iowa was gonna come visit and join us for Wood County and either Wapakoneta’s drunkbolt or triple test. Sadly, literally last minute, he said he couldn’t come which devastated the hell outta all of us. Anyway, we attempted Wood County but we split up at 2 different units. Benicio and Connor were at the Grand Rapids 3T22 and me and Tommy were at the 7V8 in Grand Rapids as we were told by a local that the 3T22 has been failing lately. Sadly, that was the case for Benicio and Connor. What makes things worse, the 7V8 failed as well. After finding out that Wood County has gone to shambles, we opted for Auburn for their other correctly wired thunderbolt and I am so glad we did. That thing was so loud I couldn’t even describe it. Don’t even get me started on the echoes from that thing. Also, for some reason, the county toned out Auburn first. I’m guessing they were toning out backwards this month. Something’s telling me they alter every month. It was still a very fun day despite a lot of stuff going wrong and it totally made up the double failure in Wood County. We will be back someday.
