[rlucas]

Correction - make that the ADVRider rally in LAUREL SPRINGS, not Linville Falls.

Duh.

Andrew and I are currently planning on riding up Friday after his last exam.  If he can reschedule and take it earlier in the week, though, we could possibly ride up as early as Wednesday afternoon

Rock, hope the interview went well.  Being unemployed *sucks.*  I missed last year's ECSR because I wasn't sure I could spend the extra $80 on gas.  (Also, frankly there were days I wasn't sure I could get out of bed.  Did I mention that being unemployed sucks?) 

I look forward to seeing all of you guys - and if I time it right, I'll even get to see Stu!

I should be in Boone Tuesday...I could head up the Blue Ridge on Wednesday for a meet-up; just name the place. 

BTW...the Adventure Rider rally is the same weekend in Linville Falls. Just off the Parkway about 30-40 miles north of Boone:

Mabrys Mill? (just north of 58 at Meadows of Dan, Va)  It's about 100 miles by parkway from Boone.  There's a restaurant there on the parkway and even if it's closed there's gas/food right at the junction of route 58.

Bill,

Interview's tomorrow. Yeah, it sucks being unemployed. It's been slightly over 2 years, and this is my first interview. We'll see how it goes... I felt like I HAD to make the Rally this year - I've missed the past couple of years, and this may well be the last for a while if I don't find employment.

Danny,

Mabry Mill works for me. I'm familiar with the place...it's where Minivan Mommy shoo'ed her kids away from the big, bad, red-boot-wearin' color-coordinated "biker" on the FJ a few years ago. "No, no, honey, y'all stay right over here." Sheesh.

Rock, you didn't hear the part where she said to the kids, "Now y'all wait here for awhile, mommy has to go talk to that nice man over there with the red shoes.."

"Roomfer" or not, I'm not a big fan of banana-enhanced desserts. B'nanner puddin', b'nanner creme pie...y'all can keep 'em.

Good thing they've got cobbler, too.

Danny,
Assume the Mabry Mills meet-up/lunch would happen around lunch time (on wed)?  Have to figure out my departure time.

The ride down should be cake compared to my Memphis trip.

We can make it a later.  Since you've got the long ride take a guess when and we'll try to get there at about the same time.

Well this is going to me my second spring fj rally that I won't be able to attend. Michelle and I are buying a new home (here in upstate NY) and I just won't have the extra money to make it down to Boone. Plus I still don't have enough vacation time to take. But next year Michelle and I will have more paid vacation time and want to take a weeks vacation and come to the Spring Rally like we did several years back. That was the year Lee from Colorado came to the rally. So I hope everyone has a safe and fun rally and I look forward to all the great pics on the fjrally site.
