Joe,
Sorry you cannot join us, but health is the number one priority, particularly when you get to our age. Give our love to Helena, will miss you both at the Pool Parties. Hopefully see you next time.

You both will be sorely missed, buddy! Take care of Helena, and we'll see you both soon.

Hey Joe. I hope that Helena recovers well! I hope to make it down next spring. I will have a vehicle change and will be really looking forward to hitting the track! Enjoy your weekend guys! I'll be thinking about you.

Oh Joe, we will so miss having you both there. It won't be the same at the pool without you. Tell Helena, I'm praying for a quick recovery. My fiance' went through three knee replacements in one year because of complications on the very first one.

What time will every one be getting together at the pool on Friday night? I might stop by to say hi.

Joe : Sorry to here you-all are not going to make the TMS. Tell Helena I was going to bring my First Aid kit, but I don't know if it has enough stuff to do knee PT. Looks like OKC-XFR will be stuck with my drafting since looks like he is the only OKie car left. We will miss you-all. See the rest of the crew Sat. morning. D&P

Thanks to everyone for making the Fall 2011 TMS another great success! We ended up with a total of 16 cars attending between the hotel and the track. Sue and I had a wonderful time catching up with old friends and meeting new ones.

Thanks to CICCI for providing funds for goodies for our pool parties and thanks to TerryR and Margaret for all their help getting the food and refreshments.

I am already looking forward to next spring!

On behalf of all the members, old and new, who attended the September 10th TMS Laps for Charity, I would like to thank the CICCI for their generous donation of refreshments for our Pool Party, another Great and Successful weekend. Our Thanks go to OKE Jon for organizing the event. Gary, sorry you could not make it this time, you missed another good one, maybe next time.
Also came home to a Surprising letter from the Chrysler Corporation, see my seperate post.

What fabulous weather you had! We were in Burleson ('bout 40 miles south) for an RV rally and my thoughts often drifted towards TMS. I'm glad there was an excellent turnout and we look forward to the 'spring fling.'
