Texas Flood

Never got to see Stevie Ray Vaughn, taken away from music fans much too early. Texas Flood totally describes what happened to central & south Texas on the weekend we were to pass through. 17 inches of rain over a period of just 24 hours created a mess of flooding, and closed highways all over the Lone Star state. ABM's perfect storm: Too early to split for Sturgis, too late to hit Colorado first. WhatyYaGonnaDo? Fidget one more week, and try to make it into the Black Hills on the last day or two of August. The "Hills" have been baking in 100-105 temps for weeks, and without a roof, we're hoping it'll finally cool down for the rally. Reports indicate that Sturgis streets are already packed with vendor tents, & parking spaces are rare. Every year we arrive a week before the official start, and every year, thousands of people get there ahead of us. Bored with the same trip up through Atlanta-Nashville-St Louis, this time we're hitting the back roads up through Little Rock. Will Sturgis '07 be bigger than last year? No tellin', but for sure, we'll have just as much fun! Check back often for reports from the world's best party!
