East then in August. Larry, we're counting on you to get it running.

Got to decide what to do this month. I'm thinking this time to keep it close (because I don't have a lot of gas money). So maybe Smithfield and Grandson's? Sound good to everyone?

You don't have to twist my arm to get me to go to Grandsons! But I want to put it out there now that I am planning a trip in August to go to Missouri to see my nephew graduate from Basic Training. If he passes then it will be Aug 13-15,*knock on wood*

So it's been quiet. Would Thursday be better for everyone then? I think that way Wesley is off on Thursday's anyway, he might be able to have a better chance of making it.

Dang it John, I am sorry. I was trying to accommodate as many as possible, and didn't even think to check back with you on Thursday. I'll do better next time.

For everyone else:

Grandsons Buffet
1273 N Brightleaf Blvd, Smithfield, NC 27577
6-6:30ish

See you there.
