Blacksnake: Cool, it'll be good to see you again 
TheBlueBlur: Sounds good.
All: Driving is going to be very leisurely tomorrow, much more of a cruise as opposed to a tour.

This sucks... 
I got there(Photo's) at 7:20 and everyone had already left. I waited for cars to come for 20 mins. I thought you guys weren't supposed to leave until 8:30. I drove 40 mins for nothing...
Can someone PM me their cell phone number cause I don't know anyone here.

If you don't have one already, bring an FRS (e.g. Motorola Talkabout) radio that can do privacy/security channels. You'll have a much better time during the cruise.

Here's more information on the radios...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Family_Radio_Service
http://www.gmrsweb.com/codetable.html <- CTCSS/Privacy/Security code translation table
Whatever brand you get, make sure it's got the CTCSS/Privacy/Security codes so you can talk with us.... so far the three interoperable brands appear to be Cobra, Midland, and Motorola. (Their privacy/CTCSS codes match).
Cheaper FRS radios only have channels 1-14. FRS radios with the CTCSS/Privacy/Security sub-channels have channels 1-14 with subchannels 1-38 in each main channel, ala 1^1-1^38 - 14^1-14^38.
You can still listen into conversations on equipment that doesn't support subchannels, but you can't speak/broadcast.
