    I am creating this thread to see if we can generate more interest. Depending on who signs on, the drive will start within 30 minutes of LR and probably head towards Heber Springs. Please let me know if you can attend so I can finalize the details. I'm looking forward to it, even if I run solo. :)

    Gene, I'm currently in India but will be home next weekend. I have this on my radar screen and should be able to confirm in a few days. Any ideas on start time, etc? It would take me 3 hours (m/l) to get to the meeting location.

    I'll check w/ my boss (the wife) and she what she has going on. Weather has been crappy here lately, I don't think that anyone has had their "fun" cars out. Our roads are still covered in a salt/sand mixture.

    It sounds like the drive is about 50/50 right now for it happening. If everyone can post their status during the week we'll make a decision. Weather will play a big part. By Wednesday or Thursday we should have a weather report that may be reliable enough to make a decision. Well, time to go. I'm off to Atlanta for the week. Woo hoo!

    Guys, count me out. My wife and I will be in Tulsa this weekend. Since I've been out of the country the last 5 weeks, I owe her some one-on-one time. So, booked a suite at the Renaissance, and maybe we'll spend a few hours at the car show also...

    I am planning on going. What time frame are you thinking? Early morning or late afternoon are great times. Noonish is tough to work around because of my kid's activities.

    What!! You need to stand up to her and let her know who is boss!!


    Just kidding. When I returned from Iraq, I don't think that I was allowed to be alone for the first month or so.

    Let's plan a NW or N Central meet. How far are you from Mountain Home?

    LOL! I wasn't gone nearly as long as you. My trips are usually between 3-4 weeks, with 2 weeks at home in between. But yes, we are pretty much "joined at the hip" while I'm home.

    It seems the last time I was in Mountain Home, it took about 3 hours. I will make it to one of these meets very soon! :)

    Ok, it looks like a go. Please reply with a definite go/no go if possible. I'm thinking early afternoon, but I'm waiting for a few PM's back to finalize the time. It would be nice to find out who all is going so I can find a central place to start.

    Sorry but I must reply "NO". I will be starting my much awaited celebration of Broyles' retirement; it has been too long in the making! I do look forward to meeting you guys in the near future.

    Looks like a change of plans. Let's just hold off this Saturday and plan for another day. I'm going to keep trying! Feel free to shoot me PM's or emails with date, route and time suggestions. Hope to see everyone soon!
