Just in case you guys really are interested, the flyer says: All you can eat - (inside the school) Eggs, Sausage, Pancakes, Home fries, Juice, Coffee. $6.00 Served 8:00 to 11:00.

Personally, I haven't had a breakfast since the military in '71, but maybe I'll have my first in 37 years with the 'boys'.

So there ya go, get a belly full, do a little voting, pick up your trophy, hell of a day. Later...

PS- Mike, doesn't say anything about Marmalade Sauce, Pineapple & Honey Glaze, or Paprika. Better bring some for your eggs.

Weather permitting, I plan to go, marmalade, paprika and all!

Applying for my gas loan today. :(

Seeing as this is your 1st breakfast in 37 years Mark, good thing that Elky bed of yours is as plush as a marshmallow. Great place to "nap it off" before you that long hike to the award line.

Seriously, sounds great!! Looking forward to it.

Gas loan came through, so am still making plans to come. Right now the weather looks good. Hope it holds.

Right now Ernie, Ray and I are the only ones I know of from RI that are planning to come. Anyone else from the Conn. or greater RI area going?

Mike I am glad to hear your loan came through - I hope you're playing the lottery to help pay it off.

I can't believe we are not hearing from more people planning to attend - it looks like a beautiful weekend coming up - end of the season - and best of all a class for el Caminos !

Can't wait to see you guys - Mike don't forget to bring the paprika or do you figure we can just shave some of Mark's paint

Shave some of Mark's paint???? I would think not! Tommy you've got about 17 coats of paint, you can spare a bit.

Seems they can't quite pin the forecast down (what a surprise). Now I'm hearing showers ending early morning, dry for the day, rain again at night. If that forecast holds, I'll be there.

Hope it works out, be great to shoot the s#*% with you guys...

It looks like 1:20 min. ride for me :? Hope the weather is ok??
I may wait tell 9:30-10:00 to head out hopefully the roads will be dry by then... :oops: Hope to see you guys there. :-D

Sorry guys. The weather's just too iffy for me. :(

Forecast looks like: "Cloudy. Showers likely in the morning...then a chance of showers and thunderstorms in the afternoon. Patchy fog in the morning. Humid with highs around 80. South winds 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 70 percent."

Guess I'm getting lazy. Gonna stay home and BBQ some ribs in the rain. At least that way I won't have a car to clean up afterward.

If you do go, hope it clears for you and you have a great time.

Chicken S%#* !!!

Seriously, where it's so iffy at this point, I figure I'll get up early and see what it looks like. Wet=back to bed, Dry=off I go.

Either way, I'll post my intentions here by 8:00 AM.....

Yeah, guess it's a wash. One of the few times that we all had an interest at the same time, sure it would have been great.

This show is listed as a 'rain or shine', but maybe they'll postpone it due to lack of turnout. If not, I'll see you guys next year.....
