LOL, I got it covered, I snore like a freight train in a blizzard. Why do you think I get my own room?:rollsmile

There is a method to the madness.:test:

See ya there:rock

Well, called Renissance again today, had to get a manager on the phone but there are still rooms available for the RPBA group. Will be sending registration today.

A little glimpse of the dock party after the run..:booze1:

and that was the PG version..

Good times!

Everyone getting ready??

You got it:rock

Getting REAL close!!!!

TJ and some of the other "freaks" that will be there.....look for a red and blue 38 Formula and come say hi. I wanted to meet a few of you ""freaks" last year but my boat didn't even make it to the first stop.

Also, someone needed 93 octane last year and to my knowledge it is still available at the same place it was last summer..... Sunset Marina (hope so, cause I need it too!!!)

Look forward to it and good deal on the 93octane!

The Renaissance is now booked solid. However, the Holiday Inn next door does have rooms as of a few days ago. Worst case is the Marriot on the other side of the harbor in Norfolk which is a (land/water) taxi away.

FYI- Holiday Inn is sold out....

Update-

I just booked at the Candlewood Suites in Hopewell for Friday night and the Renaissance for Saturday night. 1:37PM Eastern time on 7/7. The Ren said they have a ton of rooms left??????

I figure since I am a passenger for the whole run things might get ugly quicker than normal and that might come in handy..
