Thanks for the info Cathy...I'm still trying to figure out a way to get up there for the race. There just isn't enough time.

Sounds like a party. Will see if we can make the days available.

Sounds like fun, I will be in the Peoria area August 1st for a multi class high school reunion. May have to extend the trip and go to Wis.

Quinn is this going to be our Wis trip, or are you going to plan another trip for us? Also note Quinn I changed my signature for you to LiL' Woman.

I think Lil' Woman fits ya better - glad you agree

As far as a Wisconsin trip, David and I are doing the RA ALMS race for sure - it's the weekend following MidOhio.

And I made reservations for that at the Sunbury Hampton Inn (even tho we do so enjoy those 90 minute drives to the track). We are hoping to make that and I thought it wouldn't hurt to get the hotel room now even tho we didn't order tickets yet.

Here are the other race dates at Elkhart - they tend to be much more laid back and not nearly as crowded. So if one of these works better for the group, that's fine too. I think these 2 fit in between the stuff that's already scheduled.

Check out the Elkhart website.

The rooms for ALMS fill up really quickly - Bruce said he knew someone with a block of rooms somewhere. I just picked the one I did because it was near Lake Michigan and that's 'almost' like being on the ocean in Key West - NOT.

here's the view from the balcony of the condo in Key West - and that's a sunRISE you guys

Anyway - we're open to anyplace/anytime, as we have proven! So if a bunch of you are coming to the ALMS race we can check into other hotels. Or if you want a different weekend, we can probably have more time for other stuff because there isn't as much racing those other events.

Just wanna have fun!

That would be great! Hope you can make it.
