Way to go Cameron, it is a great looking NB. See you in a little over a month. When are you going to name the new one.
The TOD will be a good break in for you both.
By the way, talk your Mom into going, it would not be the whole Roswell team without her.

New car's name is Jimmy. Named after the protagonist of the Who's "Quadrophenia" (their other Rock Opera).

And my Mom isn't driving for a number of reasons...but she is going! She will be flying in to Roanoke, VA a few days before and will rent a car and drive down to meet us Friday. So she'll be riding with either Susan H. or myself.

Oh you know it buddy! KDBug and Farrah are supposed to have a play date too but Karen1963 may not be coming. I am hoping and praying things will work out for her to come - Karen that is. I just don't want to see anyone else have to back out.

You know black and red go really well together too! I'm thinking Cup and Farrah may need to have a little girl time too.

That sounds pretty cool. I'm sure we'll work out the logistics/placement between the Friday night Pizza fest and Saturday morning. Lets post this on the Official TOD Thread and discuss so at least we'll have a quasi-working model in motion. This is gonna be fun!

I pray that Karen makes it too. I've been wanting to meet Her.

And you best believe that Cuppers and Farrah will have a little girl time... talk a little shop, you know.

well as much as I hate to post this, you can take me and Elizabeth off the list of those attending... Also please cancel any orders you may have from me for any TOD T-shirts, name tags etc and remove me from the map... All hotel reservation have been canceled as well... I've taken a deposit on Lenny and if the sale goes through, and I have no reason to think it will not, I will not be going.. be safe and have fun every one...

Mark, I am happy to tell you that KDBug and I will be there, somehow! How fun to have a "Salsa(red) party" with all our gorgeous NB's. I just can't wait!!!

BTW, see, I did check out your Texas ToD thread! Still not sure how and when to hook up but I will let you know ASAP!
Karen

I'm not sure we have a set itinerary yet. If I had to guess I would say around 9-10AM.

How long of a drive do you need to make from Springfield to Murfreesboro? I think that would help. We know we are 4 to 5 hours from Bryson City. The original thought was we would arrive around noon. If we are 4 hours away, I thought we were going to leave at 8? Not sure what the plan is but knowing what time frame you are working with would help everyone just know.

Depending on traffic, 75 to 90 minutes. If our speed remains relatively constant, Murfreesboro to Bryson City is 5 hours plus or minus 15 minutes.

I agree with you on the time for leaving Murfreesboro. I would like to shoot for 8 o'clock.
