Sunday 10/25/2020:

• “See ya next year!" breakfast at hotel

Oh good, I was afraid we wouldn't find time to eat anywhere...!!!   👍

😀  😂  🤣  

I bet steak is involved!

agenda looks great, go karting looks like round 2 marshall.

Mike & Marcia Rowley from Wichita, KS. signed up today.   I knew we would make the convention one day but did not realize it would take this long.  See you all in Fort Worth.  

For anyone interested, there is also one of the largest Antique Malls in the area directly across the freeway from the Hotel.

Monkey Street Antiques

There is also a small, family owned, been in bidness since 1953 transmission shop not too far from the host hotel, where you might find an old, grumpy, opinionated transmission builder you all know and love(or hate....whatever...). 😇

Been wanting to meet that ole grumpy guy so this sounds purrrfect! I will bring my 78 for a conversation piece. :)

Is it too late to cancel?

Just kidding Joel. I hope you have some time to meet with us.

After breakfast on Sunday, Jan and I are planning to drive to Buffalo Gap (near Abilene) for lunch at Perini Ranch Steakhouse. It is about a two and a half hour drive if anyone wants to join us.
