Well, we're packing up the FReepermobile and will be ready to hit the road first thing in the morning. Haven't settled on the complete detailed intenerary yet, but here's what we've booked so far:

Depart Fresno, Thursday morning, May 27. Stay overnight somewhere near the mid point between Fresno and Ft Collins Thursday night. Probably Cedar City or Beaver, UT.

Arrive Ft Collins, CO, Friday night, May 28. Have booked a room at the University Park Holiday Inn. Will join the Colorado FReepers for their Saturday Support Our Troops Rally and a dinner at Johnson's Corner following.

Depart Ft Collins Saturday afternoon enroute to Missouri. Will probably stay overnight in Burlington, CO, or somewhere in Kansas if we get that far before it gets too late.

Arrive Columbia, MO, Sunday night, May 30. Have booked a room at the Executive Center Columbia Mall Holiday Inn for Sunday and Monday nights. Will enjoy the Memorial Day Parade with the Columbia, Mo FReepers and a dinner afterwards.

Will stay Tuesday night, June 1st, in St Louis. Haven't settled on a location yet. Chime in St Louis FReepers.

Will arrive Little Rock, Arkansas, Wed, June 2nd. Have booked a room at the Downtown Presidential Center Holiday Inn (I understand this is President Clinton's hotel. LOL). Will enjoy wearing some of my FReeper t-shirts through their lobby. We hope to get our pictures in front of the Clinton Presidential Library and perhaps do a little FReeping with the Hog Wild FReepers and then enjoy some southern hospitality Arkansas style at the Whole Hog Cafe. Will stay Wednesday and Thursday nights in Little Rock.

Will stay somewhere near Tecumseh, OK, Friday night. Have a Morton Family Reunion in Tecumseh Saturday. Saturday and Sunday nights will be in Ft Smith, AR, visiting with family.

Arrive Frisco, TX, Monday night June 7th. We're booked two nights at the Holiday Inn in Frisco. Will meet with the Dallas area FReepers for dinner Tuesday night.

Arrive Austin, TX, Wednesday night, June 9th. We're booked two nights at the Austin Town Lake Holiday Inn. Will enjoy a pot-luck dinner and FReep meet at Basil's house with the Austin "Heart of Texas Chapter" FReepers on Thursday, the 10th of June.

Arrive Houston, TX, Friday night, June 11th. We're booked at the Greenway Plaza Holiday Inn. Will enjoy a dinner and meeting with the Houston Area Texans on Saturday, the 12th of June.

After Houston, we hope to stay a couple nights at the Menger Hotel in San Antonio, visiting with the San Antonio area FReepers and hopefully meeting the Texas Termite, baby Logan and family. Then our home trip commences.

On the way home, we hope to stay a couple nights at the Holiday Inn in Las Cruces, New Mexico.

We'll have dinner in Phoenix as we pass through and will possibly stay overnight there.

The last overnight stay on our trip will be at Lake Havasu City, AZ, where we'll meet with the local FReepers and tour the world headquarters of VetsCoR (Veterans for Constitutional Restoration).

Looking forward to a great trip and seeing old friends again and meeting lots of new ones!

I'd like to come up to Frisco and say hi if possible. Let me know a venue, please. It may just be a quick "hi - goodbye" since I need to be home helping take care of our toddler son.

Everyone who gets to meet Jim and Sheila and Chris must remember to bring a flower for Sheila's hair.
She just LOVES to wear them!

So bring your state or area flowers for her, gang!!!!

Good news. I just checked up on it. I'll probably be back in Austin (well, Buda) by the eighth, so I'll probably be able to make it on the ninth. It'd be great to finally meet you and the people in the HOT chapter.

So disappointed you won't be making it out to Atlanta - maybe a future trip?

Have a blessed and *SAFE* trip - sounds like fun! We'll expect lots of pictures and FReeper reports!

:-)

Have a safe journey Jim and crew. Would you please give each of Logan's crew a hug from me? They are all so dear. Fingers crossed that it all works out.

"somewhere in Kansas if we get that far before it gets too late."

You're more than welcome at my house at Ft. Riley if you make it that far into Kansas before you stop.

That's a standing invitation anytime you want to visit Ft. Riley.

Very well. I sent you a Freepmail with an email addy for Ms.Antifeminazi.

She should be able to get you the details.

I hope you get to make it out to Frisco.

hehe ! Yeah, Chadsworth sent me a Freep mail about him swiping flowers out of the flower beds in front of the restaurant and then putting it on the table at Sheila's place. That's how the 'retrofit' pic came about.

Texas Bluebonnets for Sheila BUMP !!!
