We changed hotels. We'll be staying at the Hampton Inn. It seems we had enough points to cover the cost of the room. (Sweeeeeett) We should arrive Monday.

Well, I am 99.9% sure we are out for the rally. Got a call from my son in Wichita that the university has reduced all scholarships for next year. So now bank of dad has to find a nice size chunk o' money to pay for his last semester. First cut is always the deepest, according to the old song...which means no trips this summer.

I hope you all have a great time and enjoy a safe ride to/from/and at the rally. I'll be pouting around the house during that time.

WELL, that sucks and blows.
We'll miss you. I'll try to think about you and the Taminator while we're riding

I guess this means a 98.3% chance Tammy ain't gonna make it either.

My heart's with you Coach. All of my cars have 230,000++++ on them and last winter they reared their funkin' ugly heads on me, not including the outrageous propane price. One more, even mild catastrophic monetary event, and we couldn't make it. Hanging on by an unraveling thread here.

Maybe y'all can make Antler's later in the year. We can split the room and eat crackers and cheese. Cheese every other night once a day. Water and ice come with the room so there's a bright side. That'll be about the time I send the boy to school.


My Dad's idea was better. Like after graduation he told me about the trailer park with nice trailers that cost money to live in. He gave me some advise too. "Don't wear that stupid ass "ACDC" t-shirt and ripped jeans to your IMB job interview. It tarnishes the significance of that sterling all D's report card that you studied so hard for."

Miss Tammy even rearranged her schedule to free up the week. She had some sewing competition somewhere that she was going to do but cancelled it just for the rally.

Jake had a good paying job up until day 89 of his 90 day probationary period then got layed off ...along with 5 other probationary people. I told him he was just a hired gun until they had to start paying benefits. He learned a valuable lesson but unfortunately for me, I'm the one that has to pay now.

Oh well...at least the Jake Tax ends, for the most part, after he gets married next summer.

Sorry to hear that Ron. I know how you feel. My youngest son graduates college on June 19th and he stated that he was moving back into the home afterwards. I just got his car out of the garage for repairs $850. Now my bike is in the shop, won't start. It's been in the shop for the last 2 weeks and no word yet. It's starting to look slim for me to make the trip. Still got my fingers crossed. I've been looking forward to this trip for the last several months. Money's getting tighter since wife was layed-off from work 4 months ago. Oh well, ain't life grand.

I hear you on that. Just dropped $2400 on new clutch and some other items for the BMW. KawaTanker is down now with some issues that I am trying to get figured out.
