On another note, for the last two days every time I think about this get together Charlie Daniel's song Stroker Ace keeps running through my head, but its mutilated. Stroker Ace was born to race He had an ego ten feet high Dumb as a stump And his back was humped But man that boy could slide Take a flat track curve With the devils nerve Flat out up against the berm He'd drink some shine From time to time But something something rhyme with berm I find it fun. | ||

Jerry & Carol; I just got off the phone with Roy and Ourdee and we're all agreed. We'll be at your place on Friday afternoon and we can all go pig out on BBQ and Ice Cream. Matthew's going to be there, and who knows who else. It looks like you're having a Pre-Race Party! | ||

Ice Scream! | ||

Just checked in, to see what condition my condition is in... Who's camping, and who's "camping"? My stepdad goes "camping", with a motorhome as big as my house and better amenities. I'd like to be as close to the funnin' as possible, I'd be glad to split room costs. | ||

Ad Junk, I wasn't aware of that CDB song. He hails from Mt. Juliet, TN, as do I... Wow. | ||

Charlie Daniels is an American Icon. I can say no more. | ||

Jerry, count me in. I sent you an email. Still not sure if Gretchen is coming, she has a tendency to back out of these things at the last minute... | ||

It’s gonna be a great pre-race party!! The Ruffner’s are looking forward to hosting some of the greatest guys (and gals) around! Carol already has Saturday morning breakfast menu planned! Can you tell she is excited!!! | ||
| Ourdee |
WooHoo! | ||
| Pwnzor |
Been working on Mrs. Anthony for the last few hours... I think she's coming. I think Saturday morning breakfast sold it. | ||
| 86129squids |
OK- who wants to share a room nearby? Crusticle, what's your favorite spot again? | ||
| 04buell |
Pwnzor.......I’m glad she’s coming and hopefully my cooking won’t turn a flip-flop since I will be serving company!! Since retiring, I have gotten pretty good. And in addition to visiting the ice cream and BBQ joints, I hear a nice big homemade lasagna is gonna be available too!!! Carol | ||

This just showed up in the mail - ticket at will call.   | ||
| 86129squids |
Got my ticket in the mail the other day... | ||
| 04buell |
We. Are. Ready!! The calendar pages are just not turning fast enough. | ||
| Tootal |
As it gets closer shoot me a time for the BBQ meet up. I plan on riding over for the feast! I might ride out to see my old friend before the Mile, if I do I'll contact you guys. It's an hour and a half away. | ||
| 04buell |
That’s great Greg!! Will be nice to see ya. It’s up to the crew coming in as to what time we go eat. The joint says they have plenty of seating and they are expecting us!!! Our porch light is always on for our friends. (Just like motel 6). | ||

Just scanned the local hotel offerings, including Route 66 Hotel. That one's a little distant but not too bad, and the reviews were mostly good. I'll continue research, but anyone with two shiny pennies speak up- I'll repay with a beer.  I've never fiddled with AirBnB or Uber or any of that stuff... looking to set plans on a budget and giterduun! | ||

I'll be on Tootal's coat-tails. Hope to get a little visit before we head to lunch... Just ran some of that for the wife. She said "You're not doing THAT are you?? No, we're WATCHING. Oh, OK Trip is still on!! Z | ||
