I'll be headed west Tuesday night to KC. Spend the night with my daughter and then up and head toward Effingham Via I70 about 8:30 or 9:00am should put us into Effingham early-mid afternoon........barring any flat tires in St. Louis.

Any one along the way want to meet up with me and follow (or lead)? Barrett, what's your plan? Billy, are you and Mary Ann going to go? We could meet up with you too.
 
I am not sure what day or time I will be departing Colorado. My brother has a business committment on Wednesday and I am not sure what time we'll be leaving his house. My departure from Colorado depends on his schedule. Once I know, I will either post our schedule on this thread or e-mail you.

:duh:duh:duh I think that the fog from the beer suds makes it hard to remember...:L I'll be 50 in a little while, and they tell me that two major events take place when one gets old...1st, your memory goes south in a hurry, and 2nd...:eyerole:drink:z:m and 2nd...:(:confused:ugh;squint: I forget??? ;shrug :chuckle
 
Gerry,are you going???
 
Hey Bill,

I do want to go, but I have not committed yet because I am in the final stages of my divorce. I am hoping that it is all official by the end of May, but I have to wait 'till the official word from the judge comes back.

I know that more CAC members will show up, but if It turns out that there will be a 12-pak of Vette's, and If my legal affairs allow me, we'll make it the,"Lucky 13's".:happyanim::L;LOL:beer:beer:beer

p.s. I left Cruise Fest last year glad to have participated/visited the winery, the Fire Fly Grill, the reception at both MAMW and The Yager's home, that impromptu BBQ, the car show, and the camaraderie we all shared. I want to experience it all again. I am not sure why more CAC members, specially the ones sharing a stateline with Illinois, are not making plans to come and partake, but oh well, their loss. :D

You'd better check the registrations. I was at the Effingham CF last year with my brother, the non CF in Bowling Green in 2009 with my brother, the Cleveland CF in 2008, and Colorado Springs in 2007. My brother and I plan to be in Effingham, we just don't know what time we will arrive Wednesday night. See you there.

Billy, I'm planning right now of leaving West side KC about 9am. That should put me in St. Louis around 1, and to our meeting place between 1:30 to 2 pm.

I think that I heard that Gregory is not going to make it. Scottsredvette has a wedding in Wyoming, so he is not going to make the trip. Yoda's Dr has advised him not to attempt the trip as well. Barrett will be making the trip, but his brother can't get off work until noonish, and I feel that I need to get there and chat with Deb, Weds afternoon, so Barrett will be following me up by about 3-4 hours. The other Scott I believe is going to be there. I haven't heard from Gerry recently to know whether or not he's going to be able to make the trip. Attendance looks to be rather small......:confused
 
Gerry should Know pretty quick...like this week...:cool!::cool!:
 
see ya thur

hi bill, glad to see you are coming to fest, shame not more people are signed up. see ya late wed. or thurs. have a safe trip...................................billy:w:w:w:w

I submitted most of the refi paperwork today. I still need a home evaluation, and if all I have to do is wait for it to fund, then perhaps that may allow me to attend. This refi is a must in my d-word paperwork, but it has to be completed within 60 days from decree date...time is ticking...divorces...:ugh:eek:hnoes:argue:duh:(:cry:flipa:D
