Cowboy,
Well ... I know that not everyone will be able to meet up there. So, let's wait and see. If I get in early enough Saturday, maybe I could come up Saturday night ... we'll see. NO promises, though ... sorry.
And, Cory ... no worries ... I understand. Sorry to you, as well.

Since this is the off-topic topic, you wouldn't happen to be a *UCF Knight* fan, would you?

A Platinum Metallic (silver) 2008 Buick LaCrosse (rental) will be my ride for the road trip. It has just over 5,910 miles and still has the temporary IL tag....
Since Enterprise didn't have a Dodge Charger for me, they let me have the LaCrosse at the same price....
A few people have asked why I "road trip" and meet people along the way. Maybe these 3 pictures will illustrate why....
From my October 2004 road trip west:
http://www.chevyasylum.com/cort/0410...sicr8_jpg.html
From my August 2005 road trip east:
http://www.chevyasylum.com/cort/0508...gdtmn_jpg.html
And, perhaps, my favorite ... because of what ChevyTalk's Dennis (DeeGee) and I discovered over an interesting dinner conversation during my October 2006 road trip west:
http://www.chevyasylum.com/cort/1106...591r8_jpg.html
Packing is almost done ... and I'm just about ready to go. I'll relax through Thanksgiving Day ... and then hit the road bright'n'early Friday morning.
BTW ... Lunch in Knoxville TN will be at the BridgeView Grill, 900 Neyland Dr
It's not too late to plan to meet up, but since I will have limited access (if any?) online while I'm away, the best way to reach me is my cell phone:
847 - 337 - 9897
I look forward to seeing some of you along my travels! HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
