You will love seeing the 914s that will be there. It will probably speed your project ahead by at least 2 weeks.

Are there any wineries in this area? I haven't been to the southeast corner in quite a while...
Still working on the wife. Is it true that it is easier to ask forgiveness than it is permission? LOL! |

Aw-Right Betty for doing your homework...
I can assume that we'll all be making a trip to "Girls Gone Wine" for a photo shoot? Doug |

We will be leaving from the Ihop at the NE corner of 75 and 380 in McKinney, Tx at 3PM for anyone who wants to caravan up with us. The caravan also includes a nice, scenic drive too. If you can't make the caravan, you can follow along behind us. I am posting the directions we will be following.
From McKinney, Take I75 North. Far up into Oklahoma, 75 will merge with hwy 69 (Huh Huh Huh... he said "69". Shaddup Beevis!) Stop for gas in Atoka if you are anywhere near half tank. There is no place to get gas from here to Talimena. When 75 and 69 split again, follow 69 north until you reach the town of Stringfellow. At Stringfellow, you will pick up Hwy 43. Keep going on 43 for a long time, way out in the country. You will cross the Indian Nation turnpike about halfway along your trip down this road. Eventually you will pass along the southern end of Sardis Lake. Shortly thereafter Highway 43 will come to a stop sign, and a left turn will take you across the dam at the east end of Sardis Lake. Follow this road and it will end at Hwy 2. Turn left on Hwy 2, and you will cross a small end of Sardis Lake. When Hwy 2 meets Hwy 1, turn right on Hwy 1. This will run straight into Talimena. It also runs right past the Motel, which is on the right, just after the downtown area (don't blink or you will miss it). And that is how to get to Talimena from McKinney. It is a great drive, but don't do it just after dark. We got plastered with bugs while passing the lake last year on the way home. |

Oh.. and I found out today that Travis Howard is going to wuss out and bring his taildragger donor car instead of his 914. He said something about it riding better and all that (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bs.gif). He needs to pull the motor and put it in his 914. Then he can be cool like me!

OK! Put us on the list officially (Curt and Spring Rainbolt driving a blue Miata, from Tulsa). I'm calling Kitty today for our room, hopefully there is something left.
we will be showing up Friday night and may have to head back home Saturday night as I leave the country a day later... |

Drive all night, stop to rest in a parking lot for a couple of hours before moving on... never hear the end of it. Sheesh. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)
Seriously, why spend 50-100 bucks to get two hours of rest and then move on? |
