When taking trips, Karen and I pack with quite different styles. She'll
fuss and fret for
days, getting out her suitcase and putting things in, taking them out,
back in, whatever.
Me? Open sock drawer - friday, saturday, sunday. Open underwear drawer
- friday, saturday,
sunday. You get the picture.
We are both planning trips in early September, but different
destinations. She's going off
with her family on a short vacation in California, I'm heading back to
the Great Flat Spot.
( aka east of the Rockies ) But I have a bit of a dilemma. This is a
major event, I should
probably take some care with my appearance. But seeing as how my ride
from the airport
in Milwaukee to Elkhart Lake will be in a TR3, I need to pack light.
So I have these nice golf shirts, I should probably take one to augment
the usual array of
Kastner Cup t shirts. Both nice, bright pink. One has the Ferrari logo
on it. Not a British
car - I'd stand out in the crowd of Triumph folks for sure, assuming I
don't get beaten
within an inch of my life with broken fan belts and cracked radiator
hoses! So maybe the
Jaguar shirt would be a better choice. Decisions, decisions. Wonder if
I have Porsche swag ;-)
Yes, at this point I am planning on attending, showing up thursday
night. I may or may not
need a ride to the Milwaukee airport sunday, we shall see.
Looking forward to this event and seeing so many of you. Hope my beer
money lasts all
weekend, I owe a few to various folks.
mjb.
