So, I'm seriously thinking of going for Sat only and then driving home when you start checking into your hotel, before dinner. I'm dog sitting, but I'll ask Kyle to watch them for the day. I can practically make the drive home with my eyes closed (I used to live there and drove to phx all the time) so it's not an issue for me to drive home by myself.

Dan, any prob with me tagging along?

Well guys it looks as though my cousin (whom I was going down today to visit) is still not allowed visitors. So me and the gang will meet up with you all in Pinetop around 1:30.
Life moves pretty fast....

Thanks for the update Clinton, home your cousin gets better fast. See you Sat afternoon!

Everyone coming to the meet-up, please take note of the Valley Freeway Closures/Detours this weekend. They make effect your time/drive over to the east valley.

Morris and his wife Esther went to the state fair every year, and every year Morris would say,' Esther, I'd like to ride in that helicopter.' Esther always replied, 'I know Morris, but that helicopter ride is fifty dollars, and fifty dollars is fifty dollars' One year Esther and Morris went to the fair, and Morris said, 'Esther, I'm 85 years old. If I don't ride that helicopter, I might never get another chance.' To this, Esther replied, 'Morris that helicopter ride is fifty dollars, and fifty dollars is fifty dollars.' The pilot overheard the couple and said, 'Folks I'll make you a deal. I'll take the both of you for a ride. If you can stay quiet for the entire ride and not say a word, I won't charge you! But if you say one word, it's fifty dollars.' Morris and Esther agreed and up they went. The pilot did all kinds of fancy maneuvers, but not a word was heard. He did his daredevil tricks over and over again, but still not a word.

When they landed, the pilot turned to Morris and said, 'By golly, I did everything I could to get you to yell out, but you didn't. I'm impressed!' Morris replied, 'Well, to tell you the truth, I almost said something when Esther fell out, but you know, fifty dollars is fifty dollars!'

"Passengers" bring your car sick pills and lock your doors!!!! And have a great time. We will see you all tomorrow in Globe!

Love them twisties!!!

Helped retrieve a motorcycle that went over the edge. Rider bailed out before going over.

All MINI's kept their shiny sides up.

Sorry Barney had to be MINI-Evac'd and couldn't complete the run. The old shoulder just wasn't ready for prime time.

Thanks again Mr. Dan!!!
