Canuck, at what time is your flight back Saturday?

Ronald...

Due to flights I guess Sunday thru Friday..those 6 days are the only days I can do things...so St. Augustine any of those 6

[Ronald]

Unfortunately, I can only go from Friday 16th till Sunday, so hope can see you guys before you leave on Saturday, anyhow, let's see what happens

[Buck]

send me a PM w/ a good phone number and a time to call. My calling number will be prefaced w/ a 919 area code. If you are like me I do not answer a call if I don't know the number.

[Ronald]

I'm back from Iowa 3400 miles after packing up our oldest son. My new Dodge 2500 performed wonderful! looking forward to seeing folks.

[Buck]

Our 2011 2500 Ram diesel has performed like a champ, best pickup we have ever owned, mileage sucks however, the newer ones do much better I hear. We will be in your neck of the woods Saturday afternoon late.

Well.............

2015 has not been my year for completing most of my planned holidays...sorry and sad to say Biketoberfest is now included in one of the cancelled events.

Gwen was speaking with her mom yesterday morning about her coming and her mom informed her that she was not coming today / Friday as planned but rather Saturday. I was to fly out Saturday. Friday was to be the day we spent with Gwen's mom and figured out which car she would drive and how Gwen would get around...it is not an easy thing when your back is broken in 4 places but Gwen and I have been doing it. There is no way that I could have flown out Saturday and left "notes" for Gwen's Mom on how to deal with Gwen...all 3 of us agreed on that. So that was the nail in the coffin for this planned trip.

I so looked forward to seeing your guy's friendly faces and just vegging out after the last 3 months of stress.

I got lucky as far as the Condo I had booked with John and cancellation fees were actually decent. I was prepared to eat the whole weeks cost if necessary....just part of the cost of Gwen's recovery.

Everybody please ride safe and enjoy...for me I look forward now to Bike week in March.....

PS...my bad as I forgot to mention that Gwen continues to heal...progress is slow but nonetheless progress. She still can only walk with a walker but has taken 5 or so steps on my arm without it...does not sound like much but that is huge right now for us. We are looking at natural alternatives to build up her bones...the drug way seems to be...nope...is NOT an alternative as the side effects are far more devastating than the Osteoporosis is. I still spend most days at home with her...we can easily but slowly get out of the house for a coffee or Drs appointment...at least we are not restricted to the house as we were only 4 weeks ago. AND she can maneuver stairs alone finally!!

We will miss you .... and the coffee houses will too!

Before our evening at the races a group of us went to the Indian dealership to check out the sling shot. I am guessing that Buck might be due for an oil change......I have seen that look in Buck's eyes before
