See you guys there

Looks like I'm good to go one more dentist to see Tuesday 10-2-2016, it's been a b**ch with this failed root canal, extraction, infection, dry socket two courses of antibiotics all right already no more health complaining!!

I'm gonna do my best to arrive Friday mid-afternoon and wish to stay in the house, any old spot will do..

Should I bring a sleeping bag??

Looks like PJ already started his pain meds... Tuesday is 10/4 ;)

PJ,

As long as we have beds, you won't need any sleeping gear.......except your PJs. ;)

Rich & Mike Moor will know the head count. I think there is plenty of room.

For those who are on the fence about coming this week, current weather forecast promises to be a fantastic weekend! Colors are starting to change; got some red and yellow on our property, and we can just begin to see some great color on the mountains. Here's a view from the webcam set up at Look Rock, a few miles from the Talley Ho on the Foothills Parkway:

See you all Thursday PM. Charles, you just have to run in Stealth Mode and on one can detect you :-) An old Bond trick.

I plan to arrive somewhere around the 3-4pm window.

Knowing our unpredictable travel history...I am playing it safe and saying Kay and I will be there @ 5-6 pm...

I'm going for Thursday...

I'm starting to get depressed now. I'd be leaving in the morning if I could go. It's such a fun laid back event! Really wish I could be there! Hope everyone has a great time!

-EVERYONE, THURSDAY pm "We All Drink a Toast to Scott!" We'll miss you also. :-(

I'm on my way. I'll be there in about 45 minutes.

oh how things can change:


My bags were packed and my MGB was prepped and hours before my planned departure for a 6 hour back roads drive, what should occur bur my lovely wife had an accident and damaged her left eye.

10 hours of doctors and hospitals later Brenda is expected to fully recover; however, she needs help as the eye is covered and she is supposed to chill not drive, and rest REST rest.

Geez life is like a bowl of cherries to quote Forest Gump.

Anyway we return to the Opthamoligist Doc at noon Friday 10-7-2016 we'll see what he has to say.

My stoic wife is telling me she's OK and That I should jump in the BGT and drive west even if it's just for one night. .. ... .... she's a supportive of this gear head!!! It's possible that I MIGHT LEAVE HOME at 4 am on Sat.10-8 and attempt to arrive in Townsend for the RM breakfast meeting. At that time of day I should make it a fast drive, it all depends on today's visit to the eye Doc.

OK that's all folks. Ya'll have fun..

Oh MAN, PJ - sorry to hear. Do hope your wife's recovery is swift. Stoic and supportive is right; take care of that lady!
