Let me be the first to say how jealous I am    Looks like you had perfect weather for the race as well... Yep, green with envy 

Not to be overly optimistic, but in looking at the weather radar with roughly four hours till the party starts, the storms appear to have passed.  Maybe it will be decent after all

I leave at 7 a.m. tomorrow for NY and CT so I'll be leaving early, probably with an empty stomach 

I should have everything ready by 5, so no need to go home hungry...

Ugly Pug beer bread
Braised brisket (too rainy to smoke it outside)
Cowboy beans
Cole slaw
Baked okra w/bacon
Bread pudding w/whiskey sauce

And a few things to wash it all down with...

I knew I could count on Allan.   

GeorgeInDallas and I have decided to come in a car.  Should be there just before 4:00.

Buy a zoom lens!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry, I'm out on this one.  This project I have for work is way more involved than I first thought.   .  Been working on it since 7am and still have a ton to do before Monday.  Have fun everyone.

I know, these pics are total crap.  I did not bring the good camera with me on the trip, just have the cheapo point and shoot that I don't care if it gets stolen out of my hotel room...

On our way...

Great food!   

Good to finally make it to a Duc get together; haven't made one for some time...

To bad that the only bike activities this afternoon was standing in the garage and listen to new pipes on the 999.  They do sound great, and we all got our daily dose of that duc exhaust smell...   

Thanks again Lisa and Alan   

Great party, food, company--thanks Lisa and Alan 


I'll post some pics tomorrow.
