I sent an email to Peter K's list of owners, this will happen, and I feel in a big way .

Peter, thanks for bringing this together. I sent Mike C MikeJ's address. Hopefully they can hook up.

Ok guys I heard back from Muriel and it seems they found someone and are in the process of organizing the ride up where the child lives so she thanks everyone for wanting to help.

Glad it worked out. To bad we won't get to participate, but its all about the child.

To see the response that can be garnered by a simple, change meeting in a parking warms my heart.

Thanks Mike for following up on this.

Indeed, a great day. Lane: I did not see your post this AM, I was already out and about. Next Sunday (yes, Mother's day, I know) Gale and I will both be at Glasto with the little dog. I'll post some photos of today's event when I manage to remove my snout from the dinner trough!

No worries... those cars are so ordinary that they're easily overlooked. (ducking and running)

Sounds about right to me, but I'm sure I can't be of much help this time. My hangover didn't start to kick in until around 9:30 or so. Before then is still a little foggy and after was painful.

On a side note, chilled Patron with fresh lime juice and Tobasco is delicious at the time, but makes for an angry stomach and brainpiece the next day. Stupid 5th of May and the obligatory excessive tequila consumption associated with it...
