Watch This Place Die

Next Thursday is Dragon time. Many of you will be taking off a couple days early because of the distance you have to drive others will hit the road early Thursday morning.

This place is going to be a ghost town next weekend. I’m glad I won’t be one of the ones staying home and wondering why there haven’t been any new posts over the last 5 days. You'll really miss it.

Well, the Southwesterners/Pacific Northwesterners/Westcoasters will still be pretty well represented on NAM, goaljnky, so carry on!

Consider it a break. I can only imagine how many pictures and videos will be posted by the 402 registered Dragon attendees. I'm sure a lot will pitch in to make everyone feel as they were there.

I frequently talk to myself. I suppose posting to myself isn't much more of a stretch. There's a thin line between crazy and just unique. I wonder which side I fall.

I'm not going either. We'll just sit and reply to each other all weekend.

However .... If the boat comes in on the 3rd, I might get my new MINI on the weekend, and then yes, you will be replying to your own posts. :smile:

If there is an internet connection anywere, it can never be a vacation (at least for me). If people know I have internet access, they will expect me to check my email and make me work.

Only place I can go for vacation is my house in San Felipe, Baja California, Mexico on the beach. No connections there!!!!

Hey blargomini,

How is Redlands these days? I lived in Yucaipa while I went to college down there. Worked at Gerrards and the County Museum to pay my way thru. I try not to go there often anymore, too busy Where are you getting your Mini from?

Your MINI, don't leave home without it (but I ain't gonna take my MINI down there )

Very artistic COOPERation
