Well it's 10:45 and the temp has fallen to 35 and still sliding. If it dropped to 30 or even a little colder that wouldn't be too bad but the wind is out of the North gusting to 30 and that just doesn't thrill me at all. So the bottom line is, I ain't running. Those of you that do, stay warm and have fun.

I just got paged to go to work.  I am on call, and I thought I might be able to pass it off on someone, but no dice.  They all want to stay home in bed where it is warm.  Sorry guys.  Now I've got to figure out what to do with all of the toys we bought.

If I get home in time, we may try to make to the parade start, but it won't be at 9:00 AM......
I'll have to play it by ear with the work situation.

I think I will tough it out and go, the kids needs are still there.  I am going to wait until around 11, I may do the Grapevine start since it is much closer to me than Ft Worth.

Well, I made the Grapevine start, it was fun but it was #$%&^*@!?><&^%$# cold.  I made it to the Convention Center, dropped off the gifts and headed home.  I am still thawing out, but it was a worthy cause.

Made Grapevine and it was COLD, but did meet JustinVTX at the convention center so it was all good.
My Daughter was a trooper as we left at 8:30am from the house and rode on out O0

All I can say is  BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!  It was extremely cold on the ride.  Saw a lot of X's, but not very many knew about the board.  Talked to Ken at the convention center and DrDanBd and his friend.  It was a god turnout, considering the cold.  Saw a big group of drunk Harley riders, and tried to stay clear of them.  All in all, we had a good time, I just wish it would have been above freezing.

Later,
Jim

Well I made it also, From Ft.Worth It was cold but alright. Need to say a prayer for a couple of riders that got in to an accident on the freeway, It didn't look to good one guy was on a strecher when we rode by. It was really nice to see all the people along the hiway cheering and waving really made me fell good.
