    Just finished up work so I'm officially on vacation. Got all weekend to prepare and pack. Nick, Carole, and I will be leaving Monday morning at 5 am and taking 70 west. Will hit Illinois before stopping for the night. Tuesday am will continue on 70 into St Louis and will stop at the Archway. Will hook up with Doug Bauer and possibly Dan Starnes around noon at the Arch. Should be at the host hotel by 3 or 4 pm Tuesday. Anybody wishing to join in please call. 410-923-6630 this weekend. My cell number is 410-507-7747 if I'm on the road. Hope to see a bunch of you there. I decided to trailer my 4 dr so I will have a flatbed trailer. If anyone gets in trouble within reasonable distance to the Roundup, give us a call and we may be able to come rescue you.

    From one Maverick crazy Dennis in Maryland to the other,

    Have a great and safe trip. Tell all the guys that I have met and got to spend time getting to know at the last two Round-Ups I said hello.

    I guess just about everyone has seen that awesome Sprint of your, how weird are you going to feel going to the Round-Up without the Sprint??

    BTW do you have any pictures of the 4 door. I think I seen a couple pictures of that 4 door when you very first brought it home and I am sure, knowing how you are it looks 1000 times better now than it did then.

    Post a few picture of that what that 4 door looks like now if you don't mind.

    Wish I were able to be a member in the caravan of Mavericks heading out to the Round-Up but maybe next year. Hope you all have a great time, take lots of pictures

    Keep in mind that Hwy 40/64 is closed for a stretch coming out of downtown St. Louis. From Kingshighway to I-170.
    Have a safe trip.
    You will need to take Hwy 70 around the city.

    Craig, don't forget to bring all the paperwork for your Orange Grabber. I will wait to buy it at the end of the show so you can enter it one more time. Thanks, I can't wait to drive it home!!!:Handshake

    Thanks but that shouldn't be a problem. We pretty much stay on 70 all the way.
