Preciate it Jerry, but besides the ride from the airport? I'm looking forward to NOT drivin anything for a few days. Y'all can do the driving.

That said it probly wouldn't be too difficult to talk me into drivin a Glastron ...

Good to hear you'll make the trip again ...

Glad you are coming again Doug.

Also as a reminder if you have not booked a room yet at TI I would call right away they may already be sold out. Same thing if you plan on wanting a slip.

Gotta be better than the first two dumps I stayed in. Did I tell ya bout the Stupor 8 last year? Couldn't get the sob's to quit crankin the AC in my room all the way down everytime I left. Tried tellin em I was from FL, so only mild refrigeration was necessary. To no avail.

I always put the sign that no room service is needed whenever I stay...ie...stay out of my room please.

Glad you are coming this year again Doug. I am staying at home each night and making the daily 90 mile or so round trip to Treasure Island.

The owner of the Parkway was an old drag racing friend Rich Pokeghorn. Don't know if he still owns it or not anymore.
