Hey guys, you are going to have to bear with me, it might take me a couple extra days to get you some specifics. I just found out that a friend of mine who is the piano player for one of my groups is in ICU and they are only giving him 24 - 48 hours.

I didn't get anything timed today, but I went out to get my mind off things so I would not spend the day just staring at the phone waiting for the dreaded phone call.
I found a new road to add to the trek that I have never been on before, lots of 45 degree twisties

Can't make this one. My daughter has her last points race that day. Right now she has qualified for the Bracket Finals in Rockingham . I can't take the chance of somebody passing her in the points. But I'll try and make the next one.

I think you all are in trouble...
I was coming back from Matt's B-day celebration and decided to time part of the trip. Some of the back twisties I have never driven before at night, VERY dark, missed a dang turn and got helaturned arounded (two lane road with no where to turn around). Then wound up on back roads to the back roads.
I will re-time it again this week when I can actually see the dang street sign so I take the right road

How long of a cruise would you all like to do, two hours? three hours?
Also, I went to time the drive again yesterday after work, and thought it just aint gonna happen right now. Part of the course is gonna take us on a show off cruise down Atlantic Ave...durring the middle of August it will take me three hours just to get from one end of Atlantic Ave to another.

Info needed to better serve you.
As I said in the frist post, since I deal with restaurant owners in the area for a living, I am looking into other grubbage places with a little better munchibles then Hooters.
A lot of them are "mom & pop" type places (one off, not a chain), and some of them do not cater to "special diets" (ie vegitarians)
If you have any special dietary needs, or allergies, (vegitarian, shellfish, etc) shot me a PM so I can make sure we get to someplace where everyone will be able to enjoy they chow.
