"BigJim" sounds like a start of a good plan. Looks like Monica & I could swing these dates. Hopefully, we can take both

&

How does the "Applehouse Restaurant" in Front Royal sound for a meeting place (Like last time)?

CrosscheckFreak · 10-25-2007, 08:33 AM

I'm in...I got clearance from the boss.

I'll be coming down Friday night. I'll make the decision on where I'm going to lay my head (

) a little later today, or tomorrow. More than likely it will be something within a mile or 2 of the entrance in Front Royal.

If yoos want...we could make the meeting place where I'm staying.

BIG JIM · 10-25-2007, 08:42 AM

Let me know when you get a place to stay. We might change the meeting place.

I think Big Jim originally had 9:00am on his first post, but it looks like it got lost in his last edit.

That weekend sounds good to me and my wife. We will also be bringing along friends of ours who plan on joining the fanatics under the name Woodstock.
They have an 03 Slingshot and names are Rick & Cathy. Thanks for the invite.

Gary G · 10-26-2007, 09:31 AM

"Smokin' Asphalts" are dominating so far.

If I run, I will only have to find another woman who has no taste in men

I'm slowly training her

I hope I can make MV....

Well everyone I took a Pre Twig Run Yesterday down the Skyline from Front Royal all the way to Rockfish Gap 108 miles! The peek was early last week but as you can see from the photos I posted below the leaves are still there.I checked out a few choice stops for us. I had a great time. The weather was very cool in the early morning. Around 10am top down the rest of the day.(Bring you Jackets and Hats) Beautiful Vistas! you are in for a treat. Checked out our Lodge for Lunch and I think you will enjoy that as well...It will be a full day. Will see yall saturday at the Apple House!
