I figure that if we have a meeting in downtown Grapevine, no one will have to ride or drive past the airport. They'll just have to ride or drive to the airport.  I'm proposing Tolbert's Restaurant and Chili Parlor, 423 S Main Street in Grapevine. Eat at 7. Meeting after that. Topics can include routes to Billings, weather forecasts for a rescheduled ride to Kendall's, wrench party, or just about anything else. Please start a headcount. Looking forward to seeing you folks after missing the last two meetings! BTW, their FB page suggests the live music won't start until 8:30. And, for any Stevie Ray Vaughan fans, the music Thursday is Texas Flood. I've never seen them, but have heard they are great. |

I've seen Texas Flood perform four times; Tommy looks, sounds, dresses and plays like Stevie Ray. They also perform some Jimi Hendrix, have a Led Zeppelin medley, and occasionally perform some originals.
I highly recommend hanging out after the meeting and taking in the show.

Cool, Eric! I hope you can make it. It will be great to see you again. I'll be sure to ask you about your upcoming low-speed class.
I'll be in my cage, too, coming from work.
