If you have Alchemy bring it , the version of Sultans on that live album is Knopfler's magnum opus . We can spend a few minutes exploring the evolution of the song from the weird original demo version to what Knopfler did with it . Humor me  :laugh:

I saw Mark in Tulsa warm up for Dylan a few years ago. Mark and his band ROCKED! That's all I'll say about that concert.  :grin:  Emmylou?? She's awesome! My ex girlfriend's dad wrote a Grammy winning song for her. She's REALLY a LOVELY person. VERY Sweet! Later on a buddy played fiddle for her and got me backstage passes, she was STILL a SWEETHEART!  :boozing:

 Finally made contact with the new owner of the liquor store . 316 730 7991 , told him to stock up on PBR , Bud , and maybe some Coors . If you want a special order give them a call .

Look for this banner here at Hewins Park.

Stickers with the same logo will also be available for a small fee to cover printing costs and anything incremental goes to the Cedar Vale Pie & Ice Cream Social that the kind old ladies put on for us.

 8 days .

 There are 4 elevated graveled RV spots in Hewins park now , we should park the heavier rigs on those . If you are a first time attendee , or have any questions , come and find me .

 Food is ordered , firewood reserved , raffle bike on its way tomorrow . PJPR01 has some nice banners and stickers coming , pies and cakes will be baked next week .

 Those of you driving in please bring some extra chairs , and maybe a battery charger .

 We should do a bike show this year , no there isn't a trophy , but you will get to brag for an entire year . Lowryter's head is still swelled from 2018  :grin:

 A reminder that we will have the Saturday evening auction , bring something .

 Does anyone have a question ?

Will there be any place to plug in a device for charging (Electricity) or should we just bring our own battery banks for devices?

Can we still buy bike raffle tickets?  On site or??

Here's some facts about Pawnee.  The Guzzi bunch has had a couple of rides there.  Pawnee Bill's home is there, he's a old-time Cowboy show star, the place has a great view and it's a state park.  There's a pretty nice restaurant/steak house there.  And I understand there's a scenic park at a lake there.  There is also a "Dick Tracy" mural there, the cartoonist came from there.  The ride is all back highways from CV and about 75 miles.  I've ridden through there on my way to CV when I didn't have my RV.

I know about the "stuff" for the auction---that's my "no longer used junk" that I want to move to another garage.

But can I bring something of "real value" to sell to someone who can use it?  As I look around my motorcycle storage area, I have several items that would be very useable for someone who is in need.

Life's what happens while you're making other plans.
I always knew I'd get old.  How fast it happened was a bit of a surprise, though.

 Well of course you are allowed to bring something useful Chuck .

Well....starting to pack my stuff together and load up Stella the Stelvio!  I'm going to do some sight seeing, or just get lost for a while in Kentucky, Oklahoma, and wherever else i decide to ride to, and take my time.  I will pretty much avoid interstates on this trip and am hoping for decent weather.  Probably head out Sunday or Monday to visit some places.  Looking forward to the ride, and be safe everyone.  I will be as safe as possible and try to look out for the other guy.  Looking forward to meeting you all in the big Metropolis of Cedar Vale, Kansas!

 Really good to have some 1st time attendees this year , as Guzzistajohn said after the 1st very small Cedar Vale event , "I made lifetime friends" .

 On a somewhat serious note , if anyone wants to do a short in memoriam for a lost Guzzi family member , we will set aside a few minutes on Fri eve to do exactly that . Pictures are encouraged . We can celebrate their lives . For that matter we can eulogize a pet that attended a rally with you , after all , we added Marley to the heading and will celebrate his life .

 Oh , those of you who only know Luap , or Rocker , or Chet , or me from the board will probably be surprised and amused at how goofy we are in real life  :laugh:

 Let's have the best WG National ever , deal ?
