Got my hotel reservations for two this time. Had so much fun last year Hubby wants to join in. :yes:

All the roads in the area are beautiful. We've driven through the area way back when, but he's never done it on a Spyder/motorcycle. Whole different ride. We're still in negotiations on which rides to take.

What clinched it for Hubby was the Crawfish Boil and getting to talk with Ken about his toys at "The Shed."

Looking forward to seeing all y'all again!

Price of the Room at Days Inn. The manager called me today. If you have made your reservations already you just saved a few dollars. He will honor the previous price. The rooms are $69.00 To $75.00. This was my mistake.
Looking forward to seeing everyone there.

Back in 2009, I did a ride from Surfside, through Galvestion to Grand Isle taking roads as close to the coast as possible along the way.

Avery Island was a stop I had planned to make along the way.

I got there at 4:30, so they wouldn't even let me on the island because they were closed for tours.

Looking forward to getting to go finally.

This is one of my favorite charitable causes.
While I am not able to physically attend, I would like to send $25. Perhaps if you have a veteran or a veterans family member that this could help sponsor for the dinner then I would appreciate that. Many are on fixed incomes and can use our help. If there is no one to sponsor, the please just consider this a donation.

Thanks for for putting this together.
