    I'd like to join u guys Friday and Saturday, but I'm having a procedure done on Friday so I will be out of pocket those two days, but the Dr says I should be good to go for Sunday so I hope to meet yall in Texarkana! It's amazing how quickly Hotels have filled up. Also Painless is hosting a Movie Drive-in night in Ft Worth if yall are interested. Just FYI:

    Saturday night of the Power Tour there will be a cruise to the NEW Coyote Drive-In in downtown Fort Worth! Go to http://www.coyotedrive-in.com/ click on purchase tickets, go to the date drop down and click on June 1st, There you will be able to purchase tickets to the all time car classic American Graffiti! There will be other movies as this is a three screen drive in. It is limited to 1500 cars so get your tickets early! Food is available as well as beer and wine. Check out the web site for complete info about the theater.
