That's a long one. Have to stay tuned and check out what there is to do.

Wow, I wish... 1095 miles 17 hours 15 minutes 46 seconds

I'll plead my case to the wife this evening, but I'm sure we'll attend.

We West Coasters hope the national meet migrates a little in our direction some day. 2200 Miles each way is just too much to handle. Maybe next year.....

Don't give up on me yet... I have an idea for West coast in 2008. Not sure yet...but I'll keep you posted.

1829 miles for me.....

Wife and I started talking about our vacation plans, so knowing the dates sure helps.

If something out west is gonna happen to, that might be the ticket for me!

I definitely would like to go, so we shall see....

Last year's meet was during our family's beach vacation week in August. Looks like I missed a good time. My wife cannot make it in June but I don't think I can afford to miss another meet. My kids will be going to spend the week with their Grandparents in Virginia right around that time so I am planning on making the trip this year on my own. Looks like about 6.5 hours from their house in Virginia.

I joined the ROC just after last year's meet and wished I would have joined a littler earlier...this year it is a 1 hour trip north, so I will be able to sleep in my own bed and still come up and enjoy the company of other RL owners. I look forward to meeting everyone.

That's just the trouble, no matter where this is set up some are just going to be out of range. There was talk of Las Vegas (not officially, just throwing out ideas) but how many midwest and east folks would drive that far? It seems like some of the regional meets have gone quite well, and I hold out hope that us middle of the country owners (OK, KS, NE, Dakota's) could try for something someday.

Need a barn for Gary Flint to give another PPT in? Let's see. my mileage to this meet. Zero. Nada. Cool. Count me in. I don't have the boys that weekend, but I bet my ex-wife will let me trade so they can enjoy the meet. Girlfriend will be in New Orleans

Can't wait to see everyone again!

This is hilarious as my wife reads over my shoulder.....Although I usually don't name my vehicles and my pets are well rounded on road trips.....Molly happens to be my new baby girl who is due to be born on Feb. 15th. Lynn (wife) and Molly are doing really well so far....except for the sleepless nights. So...ya....depending on how Molly is doing come June (4 months old by then), we might make the road trip.
