Thanks Roy. I will have maps at the drivers meeting so if anyone is uncomfortable with the pace they can follow the route without having to keep up. I always talk about this at the drivers meeting. “There is only one foot on your gas pedal.”

Add us to the list. We'll meet y'all enroute.

Enjoy the cruise and good BBQ! Have some good food for me!

Well hell, had I known you guys were going we would have been there. :)

We were working my fence that blew down - but hopefully we can make the next one, if we're not out hunting!! Joe really likes Hard 8!

Miss you guys!
