Put me on the list, pending a cancelation, depending on the date.
I'm in the Air Conditioning business, so if it's a hot month, might not be able to go.

Depending on the dates I am interested.

It was a ride it was - ooh what a ride it was it really was. Such a ride.

I'm there unless ^%$^%$ happens between now and then

Unfortunately I'm going to have to miss it (again) this year - those dates are too close to the start of Musikfest.

My "ADD" does not permit me to see the obvious. Unfortunately, those dates conflict with my confirmed track dates. Maybe next year.

Count Deb and I in, can't miss a chance to eat at the Steak House.

Steak House???

I'll check my calendar and get back to you...

Sign me up!!!! I so wanted to do this trip last year but wasn't allowed to drive at that time. Becky and I eventually went up to the canyon on our own in September.

I'm not sure if it will be both of us or just me at this point, but I'll let you know when I know.

Bill

Mark,
My husband, Michael, and I were on your World's End run last year. Had a great time!!

Do you know about what time we'd be done on Sunday? I'm scheduled for Pocono Days with Del-Val on Monday, 7/23. Don't want to be wiped out for that!
