    After a great turn out in November and a break for the toy run how about a Saturday at Starbucks next Saturday the 17th. I would like to move it to the north location but every time I do that the turn out is less. So we will all congregate at the NE corner of Park and the Tollway at 9 AM. Who's with me!

    PS. to 'jumper cable' James-new bat. in the M.:)

    Don, I thought you just got a whole new M to avoid the battery change...?

    I might just have something aircooled, turbocharged, and very unsafe by the 17th.

    Not to mention politically incorrect.

    The "North" Starbucks certainly has better/more parking! Not sure why there's low turnout there.

    I should be able to make it, pending any 5th grade basketball games.

    Jim:

    The low turnout is probably because it's half way between East Jesus and Oklahoma. I'm overdue to attend an event will try to make it.

    Just down the road from me. I'll try to make it unless I am at the lake. Will know more this week.
    Thanks for pulling it together Don. I still need some one on one time to talk to you about your lift.

    It's not such a bad drive from Fort Worth if you take the toll roads.

    Its still a fair drive, and there are some great places in the mid-cities easy to get too. Also we could do a happy hour or something at Duke's, and Im sure we can get some of the spaces blocked out like they do sometimes for the bikes

    Every time we've tried to move it east the North Dallas folks cry and whine in their mochas, and to top it off the Fort Worth guys still don't show up. Go with what works, ya know?

    Jake, as a matter of fact we have. We tried one in Lewisville and had a miserable turn out and we tried one or two in Southlake-again with miserable turnouts. In addition the people that did show up were primarily from N. Dallas. I believe Will was the sole representative of the Ft. Worth crew and perhaps Nicola.

    You all think you're in the sticks...try east of Central, south of NW highway.

    Preston Center Starbucks is big and a good Saturday AM spot.

    Lawther Drive around White Rock for a beautiful (if slow) cruise area with plenty of parking. Thera are are a couple of good highway stretches nearby whre you can open it up.

    As is usual for me, the kids sporting events have interrupted what I want to do. Basketball game starts at 10:00, so I won't make Starbucks.

    Great seeing and visiting with everyone today. There were some Mighty Fine cars parked there - with one especially clean 348!

    Thanks Don for organizing this fun get-together.
