Oh, crap! And I already had the suitcase and the trailer packed. I don't
think I want to drive all the way from Chicago to Whidbey alone. I was
really counting on that caravan after Denver. <8^(

Getting late in the school year. Wouldn't want to pull Elliot out of
school then. Besides, I remember Florida.

Hey, great way to kick off British Car Week. Unfortunately also too close
to the end of the school year. Pick a date during summer vacation. I've
been meaning to spend a week or two in Colorado sometime. Seem to heep
pasing through east to west, west to east, north to south, etc, but never
got to stop for mote then a day or two.

I don't see this one on their calendar for this year (yet). Getting real
close to the heart here though. One of my favorite haunts.

I've been to Maui in the summer, would do it again too. Only one problem
there. I can't find the access road from Los Angeles, and the last time I
tried it from San Diego I ended up in Tijuana.

Uh, why September? Our club thinks the BRIC races in July (formerly the
Chicago Historics) are just the ticket for a club outing and camping for
the weekend.

Now he's back into the school year again.
I have another suggestion. How about meeting in Halifax, Nova Scotia, for
a ferry ride and tour of Newfoundland, say late June? Andy Proudfoot has
been bugging me to drop by for a beer for some time now, and that's one
part of the Amreicas I haven't seen much of (yet). Dang. Wasn't it about
this time of year we were talking about Alaska in 1997?

I think we're getting just a little off topic here.
