I failed to mention that the "ride" won't be over 40 miles long. It's pretty country, shady,
rolling black tops and stops will be made at points of interest over looking the Mark Twain
Lake.

We hope to see you there, I know Ceil and Frank would love to see you. They had their
son's vehcile repainted with grafics and intend to ride in it for the first time. The entire town
of Monroe City turned out a year ago, they even served lunch for the PGR and the little scouts kept
us in ice water.
