    Pistol Pete/Peaks of the Otter

    It's been several months now since our buddy, Pete has passed. I've been trading txt messages with Linda (wife) just to see how she's been doing and I guess you could say about as well as can be expected in losing a spouse.

    But, in the last exchange Linda wanted to know if some motorcycle buds could join in a gathering at Peaks of the Otter in October. She said that Peaks was a favorite place for Pete and the plan is to spread his ashes nearby. Linda doesn't have a specific date in mind since it would be coordinated with the kids. So the point here is to see if there's any consensus on dates that would work for our collective then I could let Linda know what would work for us, date-wise.

    So if you would and you think you could attend such a gathering, please post your preferred dates on this thread to see if there is any commonalty for us that I could provide to Linda. In addition to dates, I suspect that there will be room availability issues at Peaks in October so that'll be a challenge also.

    I know she'd love (and be appreciative of) a large turnout of his motorcycling buds.

    Post away...hope this works for us.

        I've got nothing planned so far in October and Peaks is only 3.5 hours away, depending on how one rides. I'd try and make that.

            I'm really bad at finding new threads.. Since I'm an old retired guy, I'll be there.

              OK gang. It seems like Tim's suggestion of Oct 29 works the best for all here. I'll contact Linda and let her know and hopefully that date will work for her as well. Thanks for the input and suggestions.

                Linda has said the 29th of October at Peaks would work for her so put it on your calendar. Hope we have a large turnout to cheer up Mrs Pete!

                Dang.. I'd love to attend but I'm supposed to be in Nashville that weekend... If anything changes I'd love to be there. That being said.. the Peaks will be booked so you guys had better think about alternative lodging..
