Grand American! No Show

After being there for many years and enjoying every moment of it. I decided to cancel this morning because of the weather. My main concerns is the weather during the travel up there along with the weather we are going to have here at my house while I am gone. Projected to be 25* here and FL houses and piping isn't designed for that kind of weather. I would hate to have a pipe break out at the dog pen or the dogs water freeze up and them be without water for 4 days. I just can't chance that.

Several people have contacted me about meeting them there for items. Kevin will be there and should be able to take care of you.

Hope everyone traveling there has a Safe Trip on the roads.

Heard of several not going for the same reason. Totally understandable, but you do know that you will be missed there by a lot.

It sucks to get old. It is nice that you have a youngster to send.

Richard, actually I have two here that are willing and able along with my Son that was coming down from TN. I have drove in a bunch of bad weather and saw a lot of snow over the years. Just have bad feeling about the conditions from FL to SC. Most people in this area are not use to driving in rain/sleet and snow.

This a picture a few years ago from SETWD in Salisbury NC.
Fl boys ain't even smart to wear a long sleeve shirt.

Those youngsters may not have the experience but they sure come in handy when the going gets tuff and a willingness and strong back are needed.
