I'm sorry to hear that, Anita, both that we won't see you, and for your loss. My condolences.
We still see you in a week and a half, right?

^^^^ Thank you, Jared. Yep, see you soon!!

I'm in! I guess I should be checking into local accommodations. Sleeping on the ground or in the Sling is not appealing.

You gonna be able to meet up on the road in MT, or going to take a more direct route?

Better hurry. I just got a room at the Bulldog Inn, but it said there was only one room left after that.

Montana is a go for me. I'll be in touch ahead of time to firm up the time and location. Helena works but a little farther up the road at Great Falls looks to be on your route. Probably spend a night somewhere around there or NW of there and hit the road to Sundre early Thursday. Sara is booking a flight as we speak that will put her at the Calgary airport around 5 pm on Thursday.

Got it! Looks like we'll be meeting up there. I'm still thinking about returning through Idaho Falls but have not decided yet. If not, we'll go with your plan for the return trip. Salut!

Sounds good. I'll be through Helena and headed north on Wednesday, and I hadn't picked a place to crash yet that night, but it will be close to the entrance to Glacier National Park, so I can run that road first thing in the morning and still hit the border crossing at a decent time, well before lunch. Love to have you run that route with me (or us, if @Ross pulls the trigger).

Come on @Ross! Join the festivities and have a chance to make the calendar. The guy who puts it together is a sucker for nature shots. I'll bring my Polaroid! If you pick a town ahead of time @KayTwo, I'll book a room, otherwise we can go with the flow.
Room. Check!
Plane ticket for wife. Check!
Ridin' buddies. Check!Do we need to register for the festival?
Will anyone attending want a set of luggage racks or rear plate?
I'd like to donate a plate for the raffle if there is one. Should I just bring it or let @SundreSlingQueen and @Slingshot Garage know ahead of time? -

Should I just bring it or let @SundreSlingQueen and @Slingshot Garage know ahead of time?I typically go with the flow, but @Ross recommended Shelby, MT, as a good place to stop in order to catch the Going to the Sun Road the following morning.
As far as I know, there is no registration for the festival yet, but I will ask Mark & Shawna.
And yes, there is absolutely a raffle or prize giveaway, so I would say bring it, AND we'll let them know so they can give you credit. I have prize donations from @Ruptured Duck and @mytoy already, and I am in discussion with @Angie@DDMWorks. @STYLN, and @SlingMods_Josh for the same.

Not looking for credit - just good Karma. Catching up from my past, ya know...
-
My hope is that Shelby is just far enough outside of GNP that you/we will avoid tourist hotel prices

Then give yourself a raise before you fire yourself so you can collect a larger unemployment check
