Hi Guys. Been watching the news for the fires and not sure how it will be till TUES. Maybe some rain from this front will cool it down up there. My GF got a trip tik from AAA and it suggested the route thru Birmingham AL going via 75, 10, 231 to 65. Not sure about the mileage or time as I have not looked it over yet. We may take that route on the return trip on Sun and Mon.
PS Larry it was me who e-mailed you and the guy from Melbourne is Neatnic.
Looking forward to meeting you both on Tuesday.
