Dang. Hank's even takin a bath? That would be a sight to see. Or would that be a scent to sniff? Or not to sniff. I don't know. I just know that I am comitted to a HUGE family reunion on that weekend, and there would be a whole lot of upset Egener's comin lookin for me.

Hank, Al, Eric, and all you guys will just have to smash a few chairs in my honor. :lol: Tell every one I said hi and if I could be there, I surely would.

I'm going to try to make this one.  It's either go to Vincennes the weekend before or head up North, and while this is a much longer drive than Vincennes, I'd rather join y'all.  I'm still a maybe at this point as I need to see what's going on once I'm back in the States this weekend, but hopefully I'll make it.
