I don't plan things anymore.  They just happen. uglystupid2

So, you guys figure out what you want to do and let me know.  Looks like a Friday departure, Sunday return.  That's about all I know.

HotGlue, I told you before I would be there, but I am going to have to cancel. I just flat don't have the gas money. Sure will miss y'all. Hope to meet up this summer after some of my jobs come through. Cry

Are there camping spaces available?  I seem to remember some people camped out on the grounds and was thinking of doing the same.

Didn't I see some pictures from a few years back with some snakes near the pond?  If I make it, I'll prolly stay at the motel.  Although the 10 acre urinal sounds kinda cool....

I won't know for sure if I can make it until I see what the weather will be like heading out of MI.  The WAR DEPT. is heading back to visit family for a month, so that'll make it easy for me to get away.  I just need to see if my mistress can get the time off work..... Evil Evil Grin

I'll let you know HG & FB.  I'm looking forward to it.

Disco is IN for his second GOTF and I believe Janet is in for her first.  I'll ride - duh - and she'll more than likely cage it. 

At this early date, I'm planning on an early (miss the Dallas morning rush hour on 75/45) KSU Friday and a straight shot down 45 to somewhere around Spring and then a loop around to the HoJo.  If I'm in a group and we miss the Houston Lunch Rush, I might consider 45 all the way down, but I really don't like being on a bike when everyone around me thinks it's Nascar. 

I don't want to wish away time, but COME ON APRIL!   cooldude

Yo, Sparky!  I do have a spare.  It's a low-mileage take-off. 

The only problem is that it's one of those highly modified 2-piece units and I haven't been able to figure out how to make it 1-piece again.   Cheesy

I'm thinking about putting it in the saddlebag for the trip to see if it will work like a Guardian U-Joint, or not.   Roll Eyes
