I've spent some time with mapping programs to figure out a shortcut from Tennessee to Gathering via the Great Lakes. Map attached. Think I have it worked out leaving Monday Aug 22. Will be at Kingdom Come state park in Kentucky couple nights prior to gathering to ride the area. If anyone else wants to come early let me know.

I have spoken with Barbara at the motel and canceled my room. There are three others that need to cancel also. Someone from Greenville, TN, Fuzzy, and Sticky Frog. If you'll are not going.

Looking forward to the Spring Gathering.

The other who hasn't cancelled is LF Sitz. I don't know who that is. Messages have been left for Sticky

I believe LF is Cleanerman, the former USN A-4 driver. I will PM him and tell him about the cancellation.
