Hee hee, yeah, but I work in a hospital, and they all know where to find info on the new diseases from the CDC. And I have June 11 & 16-19 off for a local rally & then MOT. Still, B&BII was GREAT and everyone who can go should go!

[Grumbler]

Its been locked down. .......hope ya'all got your RSVPs in before hand.

[Jen]

As Grumbler says, with 32 cars RSVP'd, we have closed the RSVP list so we can tell Red Bryd how many are coming. If you want to come by for breakfast and to see the group off please feel free!

Yellow MIni - sorry you can't be with us this weekend. I wish I could have gotten time off for MOT!

Jen

Thanks, Jen! Have a great time and say howdy to Aaron for me. Remember about that right turn!

Hope the 'mooners' are still there to provide entertainment for the end of the run!

[Jen]

We all made all the turns together this year - although the whole entire group missed one turn - all togfether - and we had to double back. But, the WHOLE GROUP was together so althoughe we were off the route sheet for about three miles, no one was lost.

Hurray!

There are pics posted on the NAM boards in the thread and Vanderspunk has some up on the OL too.

Great day. Aaron did a nice job leading and Paul put together a great goodie bag for everyone

[yellowmininy]

Nice work, as always! I saw Vander's pictures- looks like a great time was had by all!

i used adobe photoshop elements to generate the webpage. the problem with it, is that it is buggy with mozilla browsers, and they dont seem to want to fix it.
