CINCY CAMPING: I'VE HAD ENOUGH
I do hope that this comes to some sort of resolution.
I surely made plans to have good time at cincy this
year after not knowing if I was going to make it or
not. Finally I mustered up the courage to trust my car
and my fellow scirocco owners to go camping and same
some bucks and well here we are discussing how bad
this can turn out. I do hope that it comes to a
resolution as Im ready to make my payment to Dan on
Tuesday via MO.
Im writting this on the hopes that others that
promissed to pay Dan come forth and assure all of us
have a place to stay during our GTG.
So guys it is not all lost, please make amends and
make this happen. Im sorry that it is been frustrating
to you Dan.
