Yes of course we are. Bud ,it may be your home town, but others may not
know what a great location and hotel this GOF will have. I think it is one
of the best. I hope the rally and tour is along the same route as was done
the last time we were there. That route to Cape Cod was among the best
ever, and the lunch break with those Lobster sandwiches and N.E. Chowder
has got me hungry already.
