Balestacking Invitation
 
Hi all!

So that we can have ample refresments and food, I’m trying to get a nose count for folks that will be able to make our balestacking in Milano, TX this weekend. Please let me know if you can make it to our shindig and, if you will be staying over on Sunday so we can have breakfast for you too.

Thanks!

If only you weren't 1500 miles away I'd be happy to participate.

Isn't a 1,500 mile weekend trip why they made Mercedes?

I'm trying to finish our own new home, so time and $$$ are a factor here besides distance.

Again, wish I could help out.

That looks fun :( Why are you recruiting here? Mostly everyone's in their mid 90's :wacko:

LOL. Other than Nellybell, Sybill, Marlene and the Turd parts car, there's only one likely starcar to appear; "Beceknbauer" from this forum. TXBill is coming by but he drives a TDI these days.
