Default FW/D:How 'bout Smokestack on the 8th and Hard 8 on the 15th?

Since some wanted to cruise to the Hard 8 Restaurant on July 8th and some on July 15th how about this setup? We can cruise to the Smokestack Restaurant in Thurber on the 8th (since we had such a fun run out that way awhile back) and then cruise to the Hard 8 Restaurant in Stephenville on the 15th. After lunch there we could run down to Dublin to the Dr Pepper bottling plant for a bit then head back home on some nice back roads.

Meeting location/time for both events will be at 10:30 a.m. at the Albertson's grocery store on the right side of the intersection of I-20 and Hwy 377 South in Benbrook. We'll roll out at 11:00 sharp.

Count me in, where ever there are vettes and food I shall follow not too far behind the leader (as long as the leader is going fast enough).

I won't be there on the 8th, although I plan to make it on the 15th. Beth will be "forced" to make do with her vert.
My car will be in the shop for few items the dealer owes me.

Mary, I'll think about you while I'm eating sushi - no fried rice here

The rain continues to fall on us in north Texas, when will it end? Hopefully we will have a dry drive Sunday.

yeah! They're predicting 20% slight chc tstorms for Sunday.. but that's much better than the 80% Heavy Rain we've been getting.

looking forward to it .. hard week, I need to unwind..

We are (tentatively) in for Thurber, and then Hard 8.

See everyone at Albertson's tomorrow (Sunday) morning.
