Gary, i know you are the one who has the best idea of what, where, and when the group will be doing things.

i need to know at what time you plan on getting together, and what time and place you plan on eating. i dont know if i can make it to the start, due to a handful of reasons...family and work being the 2 of most importance, but i do plan on making it sometime in the late afternoon and staying till the night.

i have a family obligation and will prolly get scheduled to work, but i am gonna play hookie from work and i will do the family thing for a bit, but i plan on leaving around 4pm my time just for some ball park figure.

maybe you will have some sort of itinerary of where and when you will be cruising and eating. i would like to meet up for dinner, and then do the lake thing after. i have your cell number, so thats my backup, but just incase i cant get a hold of you, and also to plan things home around what you are doing.

let me know as soon as possible.

thanks
dave
