Steven,
I had a suspicion that the current situation might have such an
effect on the Meridian Site.
I wish to express my sincere thanks to yourself, John and Holly,
and to Peavey, Lincoln-Mercury and the local L-M dealer for the
two years of fun I had at the Tour in Meridian. I made new friends
at those events, and that alone was worth the trip.
Hopefully, things will change by 2003, so that we can all return to
play in your back yard.
