I got an idea guys! Skip lives in in a great riding area in West Virginia...Lets all move the meeting place to his house and crash in his living room! I bet he shows up next year. hahaha

Skip, its a real shame, buddy. I was so looking forward to meeting the guy that brought us all together; after all this time, too! Lyme is a bitch. I feel for you. I had it about a fifteen years ago, before they knew all that they do about it today. It gave me Bell's Palsy on the right side of my face. I couldn't move anything on the right side of my face for about three months. I hope that you have a speedy recovery.

Oh, and you WILL make it next year, or I am coming to crash in your living room!
