I'm still trying to work things out for Saturday morning. Hopefully I can ride over for the day.

Son of a.....front tooth crown broke off this am and only appt available for permanent replacement is next Friday at 3 pm, so at best I won't get there till around 11 pm Friday. I am going to have to call it here, too many things stacking up against me.

Frances and I will be there late Thursday night (early Friday morning?) She has to work Wed & Thurs for mandatory AP training to keep her cert. Fastest way for us will be to treat Lucille like a trailer queen and dash for it as soon as the Mrs. gets home.
Dear baby daughter will be staying home this trip to take care of her new puppy.

We are staying at the Comfort Inn across from the Base hotel

Glad to hear that folks are making it in ok. My wife and I will be busy with work for most of today, but should be able to hook up with yall this evening or in the morning for the ride. Wish I could be available today, but work calls. :) Talk to you after while.

Did anyone else get overcharged ?For 4 nights my bill was over $190.00 for 1 person .Doing the math it should have less than that.

I knew this would come up. I asked the same thing at check out.
Kenny was well aware of my feelings about it.
I believe this was a communication problem between me and Kenny.
When Kenny told me "No Tax" I took that to mean tax included.
I asked him if that is what he meant and of course he nodded and said yes.
Obviously the price was not tax included.
I was the last one to check out and was unaware what was happening.
There is nothing I can do after the fact.
Mike I know you left before I got up, but I wish someone
would have brought this to my attention at the time.
It would have been corrected.
As I told Kenny, this puts me in a very uncomfortable position.
My apology isn't worth the $20 or so you and everyone else are out.
But you have it anyway.

Don't worry about it Dave.It was still a decent rate.Thanks for all the hard work.I called kenny about a cell phone charger I had left in the room but he said he did not find anything so I left it at that.

usranger74 · 06-11-2012, 02:00 PM

I paid the same as Mike but no big deal. Room was very good, rides were great and times were excellent.

**billmac** · 06-11-2012, 05:55 PM

@ Mike, don't blame you for asking. But you won all those prizes so more money was needed. :)

Dave, you really put a lot into this rally and it showed. Who knew motel communication would be such an issue. I talked to Kenny twice and I was confused both times.

BTW, the host motel was cheaper than the other places we checked. The Super 8 was $240 and the Best Western over $300.
