I just looked at the weather forecast also. Looks like 40-70% on the rain there and here also. The temperatures in the daytime are much nicer though. I hope a lot of folks do show up so the effort to get the event held in the area will have been worth the trouble.

We spent a month in Maggie Valley last year the last of July and first of August. Had a great time and not too much rain then. Did I already ask you about the Mo rider? Did you live in Missouri in a former life? I did when I was a kid in the SE corner, the bootheel.
