I am in +1 for this one...if I don't get lost. I am trying to get pakman08 to go to if he can leave work early. How long do you think it takes to get to the meet up point from South Arlington (360 & 20)?

Tom, I PM'd you my cell number if you don't mind calling me.

Thanks!

from arlington its about 1 hr.

it will be exit 487 on I-35 in valley view. you will go under the bridge (turn left) and you will will see a gas station on your right after the bridge

@jeff - the drive will end in muenster on hwy 82, we will eat at the center and maybe go to docs later if anybody wants to hang around.

Ming, it was a great time running into you and your wife. Good thing that Tammy lady gave us good directions to get to the turbines.

mchau101 was about 5 minutes late and I was about 8-10 minutes late from when the group left. We cruised through Muenster, headed toward Turtle Lake Golf Course (FM373), cruised past the turbines and kept going thinking at some point we might catch up with the group. After rinning into a couple of guys out riding a dirt bike and a street bike (who knew "auto" BTW), we turned back and took FM2382 into St Jo, hit 82 and took it back into Muenster to The Center. I guess the group decided to eat/hang out elsewhere because we never caught up to you guys.

Anyhow, we made the most of it and got to have a nice dinner with Ming and Jean (Sp?). It was funny that there were some young girls there giggling and checking out my 17-year onld son that went with me.

On the way back to Arlington, we ran across a guy near downtown Ft Worth in a nice looking Rio Yellow Pearl (I think) and ran a little with him down 820, tried to chat him up, but could not hear real well...chucked the dueces.
