The person behind the counter will be handing out the cards.....No way he can cheat. What he gets is what he gets... :)

Nope, no cheating. I have it set up that if I here from the business' you cheated, your out. And I am not running in the Poker Run as I have too much to do at ground zero.
But the boy is running in it. The only advantage he has is he knows how to get to his grandparents trailor park.
I haven't even shown him the route. Top Secret!

Count me in for a couple of extra chairs, plates, napkins, utensils, and a portable propane grill (charcoal one took a dump on me).
I'm also planning on grabbing some of those pre-made macaroni salad type things from the grocery store on the way up.

Just curious...how much stuff are we cooking up? Those hibachis and portable grilles can only cook so fast.
Besides, I'm not sure you want food and coolers being tossed all over the place (especially with floaty suspensions :D)

Crap, double post.
Ok I'll use this space to let those know that I drove past the exit today and noticed Tim Horton's on both sides of the QEW.
Instead of confusing eveyone which way and Tim Horton's to go to, go away from the lake when you get off at Casablanca. For those from TO> bound QEW turn right off the Casablanca exit.
For those coming from Niagara Falls, turn left off the Casablanca exit and go over the QEW and the Gateway to Niagara is on your right.

It's the "big one" on the escarpment side not the lake side, can't miss it.
The parking lot on the Hamilton side of it is usually pretty empty save the occaisional tour bus and can be seen from the highway.

I know this is gonna sound ridiculous, but any way you can get the street address of that Tim Hortons? (I'll need it for the GPS, I know where I'm *supposed* to go by now, but I'll be using teh GPS as a backup)

Heh, okay, okay, I just want to have a backup, esp. now that my fuel guage is going wonky on me (It's getting stuck around 1/2 full as it empties and not moving downwards, I'm trying a couple of tanks of high octane but I think it's dealer time next week :()

That's the plan, I have enough to finish the week for sure (I've only done 310KM since the last fill) and I'll either fill the tank Friday night or first thing Sat in the AM.
Of course the silly guage starts acting up after I've already brought the car in for other warranty work earlier last week <_<
