Here is a link to the OK S2ki page that has links to a few of my pics. Trying to upload a slideshow as well... but it is taking a little while.
Great times - as always, cannot wait till spring!

Sunday I drove back Hwy 7 to Hot Springs and did the tourist thing. Monday continued back home. Top down all the way.
Definitely coming back next Fall and will encourage the Gulf Coast folks to join me.
Drove over to New Orleans today and meet up with Mike. Got the shirt from the BMT event and told me the hell of the job you guys do on this event. Looks like another road trip is in my near future to check this one out also. Great roads, great people and the S2000 you can't go wrong. Hope to see you real soon. Later David

James was great to have you back! Thanks!

My thanks to Andy and all the BMT workers that put on such an excellent event.
To know that BMT events are in good hands is an understatement. It was super
to revisit with BMT vets and meet the welcome newcomers. I hope all had as
stimulating a drive and enjoyed the beautiful fall colors as much as James and
I did.

Jerome, I thank you and Julie for what I know about the BMT!
Your right, the BMT is definitely in good hands, we must not disappoint!

Andy,
Very sad to have missed this one, but hope to be there in the spring.

Glad to have heard only good things, which means no offs or incidents.
Peter we missed ya !

Thanks John! Enjoyed it as always !

I took almost 400 photos, most of which were out the sunroof, so I'll try to skim that down to 40 or 50 & get them posted soon.

Here's a teaser, although this was with my iPhone.

I just re-ran 23 down the Pig Trail, 215, & 103 down to Clarksville "on my way" back to Alma to pick up my wife and munchkin. I hope heaven resembles those roads.
Thanks Trent! I agree and hope the same thing! The 23/215/103 combo of roads is heavenly!

I met a lot of great new people and saw lots from the spring run, and actually remember more names this time!!

KUDOS and many THANKS to Andy, Julie, Dave, Dave, Janet and Jerome (and others I'm still trying to remember the names of!) for putting together another GREAT event!

How many days until the Spring '12 event?
Haha, Thanks Dave, glad to have you back and look forward to future BMT's!

2. Some of you need to remember to use your inside voices before the next BMT.

3. What happens in Eureka Springs ....... stays in Eureka Springs.
Janet... ah, good times as always! I think someone spiked my koolaid ... or was that me
