If you want them we can work out some kinda arrangement.

Me, an enabler, NEVER.

I want to go to the show in Newport. I have it on my calendar. I think Tommy wanted to go, but I bet he's forgot it by now. I'm coming with or without him.

However, I have no idea about the shows. Could someone forward me the info on when and where? I'm geographically challenged (especially since I've been here less than 2 years) so the more info the better.

I'm not seeing any reference to time. When does this baby start?

I'm not good with driving in places I don't know... so don't worry. I'll be lost and turning around alot too. I have only been there once and I wasn't driving then. I'm dreading that part of it.

And after looking on the internet, I'm asuming the address is 112 Fairground Circle, Newport. Correct?

Sounds right... it is a circle. (I don't worry about directions until the last minute)

I haven't checked directions, yet, if I google it I might change my mind about going... its a LOOOOONNNG way for me.

Just looked up where you are....you are correct. That is pretty far. It is an hour for us. But everyone has talked about it for so long that I can't stand not to go.

I think its easy to find. Take I-40 East at the 40/81 split stay on I-40 and get off the Newport Exit 432B (it will be on the LEFT side of the interstate) it goes under the westbound lanes and comes out down on Hwy 25/70. The Fairgrounds is just up on the right about 2 miles. If you take the first exit 432A you will need to turn left at the foot of the ramp.

I may sometimes gripe about where I live but it seems I am in a good location for most of the get together places. And for some reason seem to travel to most surrounding counties for one reason or another. I hope t see you there.
