Thanks Tom. I'd also like to say that we are going to miss those of you who have been loyal attendees over the years who are not able to make it. I know each of you have your reasons, but here is a partial list of folks who I wish were coming, and I'll wish you a happy time doing whatever your doing instead. We'll toast you guys and everyone else who is there in spirit.
Rob Wick (69Oiler) - Founder of the birth of the IDI Weekend, along with me, Mark Sekeres and Doug Benson
Gary Russel (Gruss) - Host of the 2005 rally
Joe Lewis (PAFixItMan) - out due to family illness.

Oh heck, there are too many to list. Like I said to the wife last night, if we had everybody coming, who ever came to any of the rallies, I think there would be 100 trucks there.
