Gary, Martha is not into cooking classes any more than cars.... We took on together in Tuscany and she hated it; she is a great cook in her own right. I have tried to tell her to do it to get to know some of the other women so she is "considering it."

Bill, would love for you to help with my car if that works out for you. Will call you when I know more specifically what the scheduled arrival is. He did say they might arrange to pick up the car early and then drop it at their warehouse near the airport in which case I may need someone to chauffeur me there to get it. Staying tuned!! Three weeks today!!!

Hey Jack - It's not about the cookin' (although some might disagree) - it about camaraderie with other car-guy wives, and DRINKING (they do a bit of that with wine at these get-togethers!)

(Tell her I might attend - just to be with women instead of these car-guys! - maybe that will help)

All booked and set to go from Lafayette, LA. Looking forward to meeting all the TX neighbors at Frank's on Monday. As far as I know, I am the lone wolf out of Louisiana and made plans to get going on Saturday to Memphis to say hi to Elvis, till Monday. Then depart for MO. Let me know if anyone is going out of Memphis to tag along with.

Just Blue Moon. Missed you last year Dave. The boys and girls decided to go to Napa this weekend and couldn't take that much time off. Looking forward to seeing you again.

This group is getting big. We will need Buford T. Justice for a front door.

Dave, we missed you last year as well. Glad to see you are making the trek again this year with your car.
See you soon in Detroit!!

We're probably going to make our own way on the first day and meet up with everyone at the hotel in Tulsa, should get there around 6-7pm. Then we'll have ourselves a convoy to Motor City!

We are meeting GT Jack in Springfield then on to Dr Frank's. Spirit and I will start the run to Tulsa. Anyone joining from Austin to Tulsa? Time for a headcount so we don't miss someone.

Anyone else between Tulsa and Frank's. I think Houston folks are meeting us in Tulsa.

Sorry. Extremely poor segue on my part.

I'll read the entire thread tonight and make a list of who I think is running with us to Franks. He will coordinate after that.

I think this is how the trip to Frank's house will go:
8:00 Sunday Spirit and I leave Austin and meet Texas Mongrel, Hilo Dave, AMB, Ed.Life and Bye Enzo
9:00 Monday Leave Tulsa and meet with GT Jack around lunchtime in the Springfield area then on to St Louis.

If I forgot anyone let me know.

The Drury hotel where everyone else are staying has a large parking area that will probably accommodate your trailer -

Most of the lot is usually available.
