We are leaving Wednesday Apr 2 after work but we will stop in Elkins, WV for the night because my sister goes to school in Elkins

When I say "we" I mean my wife and I in my Marauder and mom and dad in his DBP.

Thursday morning we'll head out early and arrive in Louisville by mid afternoon

Whitey you have my number so feel free to text/call when you're on your way on Thursday. Reception might be a little sketchy in the WV mountains, but texts should go through as long as you have 1 bar. My navigator will handle all texts/calls while I am driving.

Whitey/Richard you guys still planning on leaving 4 AM? That would put you in Elkins around 8 or 9 AM. That is probably the time we're rolling out so send me a text when you get closer and then we'll head out to I-79 and try sync up with Haggis and Ladyhawke!

WOW! Yeah, I can't see him making that trip, for a day. I can't see myself doing that either! I guess I'll see you there. There's so much I want to do to da MM before Louisville, but not enough time. Money, money too. It usually helps.

I'm kind of pissed, the bid was supposed to be the 28th and got pushed back a week after the pre-bid meeting..... The drive is only like 6 hours, but I can't justify it for basically one day.

Can't leave Detroit till 2-3pm on the 3rd... :( lame. But gives me time to finish my last minute OCD'ness tasks I suppose.

This weekend the final electronics prep begins.

Need to put together the LED giveaways... Will accommodate long or short overhead consoles to whom ever wins. :)

Whitey,

just to re-iterate: We'll be staying overnight in Elkins, WV tomorrow night (Wednesday Apr 2). I don't know what route you and RichardP are taking, but send me a text when you get in WV. If we can meet up great, if not, I hate you and will punch you in the face.

Send a text instead. Service is spotty in WV so you might not get me via phone. As long as you have 1 bar text will go thru
