Thanks for the good wishes. I assure you we'll have a fine time.

But, you know, you could be there.

If you leave right now, jump I-24 to Chattanooga, pick up I-75 through Atlanta, to I-20 East.

Get off at the West Ave exit . . .

You could make it in time for dinner if you hurry. I'll buy you a wee dram of the aqua vitae and serve you the haggis w' my own han's.

Now that, that was warm and heartfelt! Moran taing!!
I wish that my extenuating circumstances allowed for it. I would have accepted your wee dram and probably offered you many more of mine.

Post some pics soon!
Glad you guys had a grand time!

Turpin addressed the warm, reekin', rich puddin' as it should be done:
