Babes LOVE the kilt! Don't know why?

Airstream Sponsorship....

I just received an email from Larry Huttle at Airstream. He said that Airstream will be sending some things as a sponsorship for the event.

Thank you Airstream Inc!

Well the time is finally here.

After catching a nap this morning, I will be heading to the Airport to pick up Pee Wee. Plans are to get him, and pick up the rally merchandise en route. We haven't loaded anything yet, so the time crunch is on.

Attending our dinner out Thursday will be:

Medic Family
Overlander 64
Pee Wee
Sugarfoot
Isadora
Walter and Waneta (Not forum members)

I spoke with Tin Loaf who plans to be in Cape around 630. Is anyone opposed to waiting for him to arrive so he can hop in a car with us for dinner?

I am researching restaurants in Cape right now, but does anyone other than my vegetarian have restrictions?

Steve

Sure thing Bob.

I see there is an O'Charley's restaurant in town that we could go to. Similar to Applebees where they have a ton of options for everyone. They are also greatly priced for good portions. Anyone else have ideas?

After doing some configuring, these layouts seem to work the best for us as a group at the rally.

I want INPUT on which configuration you like the best since some folks don't care where they park, and others have certain places they would like to be.

Some places popular with locals include:

Bella-Itallia Ristorante (downtown Cape)

Grecian Steakhouse (Town Plaza Shopping Center)
They have an excellent salad bar, good soups, buffet as well as a full menu . . . I just ate there two weeks ago and the food was excellent and quite reasonably priced.

Port Cape Girardeau Restaurant & Lounge (Riverfront -- Downtown Cape)

Great Wall Chinese Restaurant (on William Street)

The Pasta House Company (West Park Mall)

There are many great restaurants in Cape, and these are among the "old-timers" that we often choose when entertaining friends from out of town.

Most anywhere is fine with us, let the majority rule. We can eat nearly anything (well maybe not sushi).

I kinda like the last one, seems like that puts us more in a group.

Sandy,

I take it from previous conversations that a shell fish and shrimp bar are not good ideas for dinner?

Heading out shortly to pick up P. Wee at Lambert. We'll probably take him to Imo's this evening so he can experience St. Louis style original pizza.

Steve
