Sell it for a profit...not a loss.
We're talking prime, USDA, Grade A, Location, Location, Location
Worth at least a Pink Flamingo or two.

Hey Becky. Sorry we won't be neighbors but first things first right? Hope your Mother-in-Law gets better soon and I hope your Runnin' Rebs find a great coach.

[rebel beck]

Thanks Zoomin, I'll miss it and I'll for sure miss all the new folks this year. Michelle got the spot I pm her and let her grab the prime spot. We will be moving my mother-in-law to Oxford she lives in Tupelo now about 1 hour drive for us, in the last 4 days we have had to make 5 trips so we have talked her in to being here with us.
And yes the Ole Miss jet has started leaving daily for the hunt (We live by the Airport)

[Roadtoaster]

Well Beck, I thought you were following us down this year. Guess that won't happen. Sorry you can't make it.

Michelle, seems to me you were across the street from me last year. Guess you just wanted to be close again.......

[Sugarfoot]

Becky, I'm sorry to hear about all you are dealing with right now. That's quite an undertaking. We'll all miss you at the Can Opener.

[maxandgeorgia]

Becky, we're disappointed too that we'll miss you at the Opener. I was looking forward to driving into Oxford and forming a caravan with you. Perhaps we can do that another Can Opener rally. Surely do hope health is better for your mother in law and the general craziness of life settles down for you. Keep us posted...~G

[thecatsandi]

If I had kept my original spot I would have been right there. My plans changed as well. This allowed me to attend. I am happy about that but not how it happened. I was on the verge of making my aviation career take flight.

I have been offline for awhile. I think this sounds like a great idea! We will have our 7 year old grandson with us. Let me know if you need any help.

Just a funny note: I am looking forward to playing some music (as I recall, you have connections, so to speak) with you guys. When I read about your 7 year old grandson, in my current sleepy/groggy early-morning fog, I worried that I didn't know enough Lawrence Welk. But then I realized that my granddaughter is 5 . I guess I am older than I thought!

My last birthday, I received a musical card with something to the effect that old musicians don't fade away, they just rock on. I opened it and it played Sweet Home Alabama. Some of the Rally attendees may not have been born when that was a hit!

[Beaubill]

Sweet Home Alabama: Thats our national anthem here in Ala. everybody has heard it. Young and old, It's one of the most played songs down here in LA.

[aturner4u]

Some of the Rally attendees may not have been born when that was a hit!

I was alive but I was younger than your grandkids. As for knowing the song...if you know any Alabama fan (even born after 1974) you can't help but know the song...along with the "roll tide roll" thrown in.

We catch ourselves saying
"What kind of Coke do you want?"
