I'm posting this because it needs posted, not because I can organize the crew or am even 100% sure I can attend, personally. 
Here's a link to the Overland Expo website for more information.
I would really like to attend this event, even if only as a day trip. I've seen some folks in the Mitsubishi section talking about rallying the troops and making a run of it. Toasty mentioned a "Crayfish massacre," which scares me a little, as I can't tell if he's talking about doing a lot of fishing or eating a lot of bait. (It's a southern thing, I don't understand.)
Overlanding is really the big reason why I got my rig last month. Well, that, and the exceptional group of local Mitsubishi 4WD folks I met a couple years back, so I would really enjoy a chance to make a day of it, checking out the awesome rigs that roll into Flag from all over the world, maybe talking to some of the overlanders in person, picking up some free info (Overland Gourmet has some KILLER recipes), and as Toasty also mentioned, drooling over stuff I can't afford.
Perhaps there could be a simple, overnight camping shindig too. Not necessarily in the vicinity of the expo?
I am hoping to have my rig ready for 8 hours on the highway to Ridgecrest, California, to work at a rally race the weekend prior, but assuming wallet isn't entirely wasted by then, I'd like to make this happen and would see if I could talk friends with a JK into coming along too.
Discuss.
