Where is your spirit of adventure? Real men (and women) use paper maps!

Note: this is just my way of saying I'm old and don't know what you are talking about.

Well, I'm out! Dangit! But all is not lost for me, I'll be in Disney for the week. The boy child is outta college that week and can't wait to get outta Rhode Island. Since he's a recruiter for Disney's college program, he gets employee rates. That includes Mom and Dad!

Y'all have fun and hope to see everyone next year!

We're meeting at the Wal-Mart at Hwy 441 and Lions Club Rd in Madison. I think it is the ONLY Wal-Mart in Madison...we should be there in the Wal-Mart parking lot between 3:30-4:00 PM Friday, 26 Feb. This should get us into Helen while it is still light (about 6:00 PM). We're looking forward to meeting up with ya'll!

I'll be in the Dallas Cowboys MINI.

Has anyone picked a restaurant to gather for Friday Night? The Hofbrauhas Restaurant looks intresting and I know the Troll Bar is where we will end up.
