OK, due the way our holiday closings and my normal work weekends fall this year I will be off from midnight the night of December 18th to 7am January 6th. I'll be heading out at midnight the 18th and driving to Slidell, LA to attend my oldest niece's wedding in Mandeville later that day (the 19th). From there the whole family will load up and we'll drive another 6 or 7 hours up to my Mom's house in Hunstville, AL. I'll stay there a week and head back down here on the 27th. So, from the 28th to the 5th... Anybody in the Houston group have a garage or other workspace and want to plan a one day holiday "help me finish the Rivi" get together/party for TCBers? If someone has a big enough space maybe we could put it out on the HVWC list and make it a holiday Houston VW party? Potluck and BYOB&B (booze and bed). I wanted to have it running before the 18th but the weather isn't cooperating with my no-garage having butt right now. It's decided to get both cold and wet at the same time. I could work around one or the other, but not both. Gerald
