Mine will be out-for a little while. My dad, brother and I have a tradition. We always go to the mall and have Cinnabon, and do a little shopping, but I'm working so after Cinnabon I'll be heading to work, but there are enough spots at our mall that we should be fine. I think My dad has his Vette there last year. I'm sure my dad and brother will take the lightning tomorrow though-we'll see.
