Dave,
Thanks for the update.
Did you mean Saturday 9/27/08 to Sunday 9/28/08, or something else?
If the bus tour will be on Friday 9/26/08, then will the BRHS car on
the Illinois Zephyr trip from Chicago Union Station to Macomb
actually be on Thursday 9/25/08? I understand that the return trip
on the IZ from Macomb to CUS will be on Sunday 9/28/08.
Thanks again & sounds like another great meet!
Bill
