So Chris and I may head out this afternoon if it keeps raining. My softball game will likely be cancelled tonight. This will make it my 4th Arkansas Rally, and 3rd trip down in the cold rain.  But the weather is always perfect when we get there!

Tomspdmster and I rode to Branson this morning from Jasper. Having lunch at Garfield's on the Landings right now on this perfect afternoon. Tom ate another battery late yesterday, but he thinks the problem is sorted out now.

Got home alright. Had a blast and it's always great hanging out with you guys. Can't wait till next year. Post some pics if you got any guys. I forgot my camera on the rides and the only pics I got was some of Dave passed out on the bed still wearing his riding clothes and boots.

Glad you guys had a blast and made it back home safely. Seeing those pictures is a reminder of what I missed. One of these years I'll be able to attend.

866 miles and a total of 49.91 spent on gas (not including the final fill up - which I haven't done yet). An affordable and enjoyable vacation.
Had a great time all four days, except for the fog coming up and going down through the Ozarks.
Learned that some (unnamed) skills weren't lost after 31 years. Thanks again, Chris!
Learned that cats don't fly so well, but that they bounce GREAT!
Learned that you know you're in a GEN-U-INE Arkansas BBQ joint, when you hear two ladies talking about their preferences in handguns rather than what's on sale at Dillard's.
Learned that proper tire pressures really make a bike handle better and the tires don't wear out over a weekend.
Decided I prefer the Rider's Rest to The Hub for a base of operations during the rally.
Decided that if Arkansas doesn't have the best roads for motorcycles in the nation, then I'd like to know who does.
Really looking forward to hanging with everyone next year, and I'm glad everyone made it home safe and sound.

Just as I figured. I had an e-mail that UPS is scheduled to deliver the T-shirts today at the HUB. A day late and a dollar short.  She is going to send them to me and if you all still want them I will mail them out. They are going to be $12. I agree with JC, The HUB wasn't my favorite place to stay. It was better then the Y city Inn, though. No brown tap water. It was good seeing everyone again.

Made it home about 10:30 last night. Charlie led me down some awesome roads thru queen wilhemina state park and a bunch of other places after we got out of the clouds.
Almost 2000 miles in 4.5 days. I had a great time. Thanks to all.
I loaded some pics on FB tonight, will load some pics on photobucket tomorrow.
