Steve, I really hate that I will miss my first Okteenerfest this year, have a conflict with another car event that I will be photographing. My T shirt collection will now not be complete, and this is another collectable beauty! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hissyfit.gif)

NOOOOOOoooooo!
I hate you and your Mistress won't make it.

I'll make sure your Okteenerfest shirt collection is complete (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

OKTEENERFEST 2026 event design is complete. What do you think?



ALSO...
Registration closes August 31 so if you have been procrastinating, now is the time to register.

Sorry to hear you will not be able to attend this year! I think you are one of the few of us that have been to all of them.

This is Al Meredith's son.

For the first time in I do not know how many years my dad will not be making it this year. He had back surgery a week ago and is still in the hospital. Looks like he might be there for another week or so. Hope you guys have a good time. Looks like someone else gets to be the oldest one there. Hopefully he can return next year.

Blake,
Thanks for the update on Al. He will be missed. Rest up, heal quickly, and please give him my regards.

Thanks,

Not going to make it this year. We’re expecting our first grandchild then, plus a 50th class reunion soon after. If possible I might drive up for the day on Saturday.

Sorry to hear you’re not. Coming Perry. Always enjoy getting together. Congratulations on the little one. They are a blast. Sneak up Saturday if you can.

Sad news. My mother who has been battling dementia for the past few years has passed away. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) We had just moved her into long term memory care too. The decline was awful to watch but I'm glad she is no longer suffering. I'm going to cancel my plans to attend Okteenerfest next weekend and redirect to CO to be with family. Sorry to have to cancel.

Blake, sorry to hear that, but I hope this helps him get mobile again after his recovery. I know the last 2 times i saw him he was having a hard time getting around.

Tell him to hang in there and we hope to see him soon.
