Well, just happens I might be wife and childless that weekend.  Family invited my 3 kids to go to SeaWorld and at this point that is the weekend being considered.  It sounds like fun.  I should know for sure in the next few days if I am even available to go.

Sounds good...I agree it should be fun...It is approx. 265miles from my house to Seagoville...Not sure how much further to Gregs...If I go I'm leaning towards trailering due to the heat plus facing approx. 9hrs. driving round trip..Send me a pm when you know more or plans....

Ok here is the plan how about we grill out at Gregs and we can all bring something I know it is hard to tote something on the bike but maybe we could all pitch in something. I will provide the Meat it will be a surprise but you will not be disappointed I hope LOL and maybe potato salad I can do that the night before. We will have PIE or maybe we can ride to the PIE !!!!

But lets all come on out and raid the Cotherns house and have a great day as it always is when we are together and telling lies !!!!

I want to thank all the MOOTsters that came out and Jerry for the pie sorry you had to leave but hope you had a great day at the course. We had some great food the ribs the Greg and the Queen prepared were AWESOME!!!!  Lowell brought some coleslaw which I love and I made a potato salad. Dave went and picked up drinks and such we sure had a lot of food which was made even better by the company we had  8) 8) 8) 

We got the Spitfire tore all the way down to the frame kinda had a little change of plans but with the help we had we had it tore down about 2 hours after lunch Thanks Guys!!!  Greg O showed up with his wife very nice to have them show. Then we started working on bikes Dave did some work on his Valk as I did on mine checked the valves and changed the oil .Royal Purple all the WAY !!!! :lol: :lol:

I just got my butt out of the shower and I feel refreshed (a little). Geez, what a long day. Lots of positive things got done as well as fine fellowship.

Between the food, the car and the motorcycles, that's the most grease I've seen in a long time in one place.

Always good to see everyone and thanks again to Greg and Kristi for opening the house up and busting hump fixing food.

You no show lawn cutters missed some really good homemade apple pie, pecan pie and a Boston Torte. More for us. :cool: :cool: :cool:

I'm ready to get riding again now.

Thanks again to Greg and Kristi the ribs were awsome.
It was fun to work on something other than my junk for once.
Not that the Spitfire is junk just my stuff.. Dig dig diggin a hole.
Anyway it was fun.
I got home and then had to go grocery shopin. Wally world was fun as was a trip to home depo to pick up some wood.
Making a big playpen for my ferrets. 8' long by 4' high by 4' wide.

Glad the peacan pie was good, I enjoyed seeing everone, hated to leave so soon, but Robert and I had fun knocking over pylons in the parking lot for about 4 and a half hours, looking forward to the next one.

Sounds like you guys had a great time 8). Hope the weather there was as great as it was here we had two perfect days, cool mornings and and days in the high 80's, 91 to 92 tops. We got in about 500 miles Sat and Sunday just kicking around Ar. I wish we could have made the wrenching but had a good weekend anyway. I'm anxious to see the damage  :shock: I mean progress y'all made on the Spitfire post some pics I know ya got some :D..

Sorry about your back, Greg.

A mild suggestion, that fixed mine after much agony.  A book entitled "Treat Your Own Back".  I have recommended it to many folks, and all have claimed to benefit.

I still abide by some of the guidance I found there.  Best $7 I ever spent.

Being in the medical biz, you probably already know all this stuff, but, hey, I had to say it!!
