Dennis and Roberta,
I just got the news and I am speechless.
I can't even imagine the sadness and loss that you both must be feeling.
My thoughts and prayers are with you both through this difficult time.

I do have a confirmed room reservation at Fontana Lodge if anyone is interested. Contact me via PM and we'll try to help you out with a room at the reduced rate.

Later,
I am soo sorry for your loss, and can not imagine having to go through something like this.

I am sure this is furthest from your mind, but I had to cancel my reservations for the Spring Dragon as well (Gary please take me off the list) and I called the Lodge and got them to change my reservation (and deposit) to the dates for the Fall Dragon. I do not know if you will be making the Fall Dragon, but it is definitely a thought

Or for anyone who is missing because of the road closures....

Sounds good buddy, don't know exactly where you are, but I am going to be in KY for a bachelor party this weekend. I am going to PM you my number, because if you are anywhere near any of the distilleries on the Bourbon Trail, we should try and hook up.

I am sorry I can not make it, but with vacation time and funny money getting more scarse, I would rather do 3 nights in the Fall, CAA, and Woodward

Very sorry to hear this. As I keep saying: "There is too much pain in this world for my taste".

Very sorry, words fail me at this point.

Allen roadster went to body shop yesterday.We are looking at 3-4 weeks.It will need new fender,side rear,side door as the door will not open, and repainted,etc.They said getting parts will be the hold up.After his is done then my coupe will be fixed. Allens is worse than mine.They said they have to put it on the lift to check if any damage .So now we wait.Sure do miss driving them.Any way have fun and drive safe we will miss all our friends.Maybe we will drive up in the truck for Sat. Just to visit .Sure will miss the Bbq.
