True. Although even with that being the case I think people have been burnt out by them. Kinda curious to see what the turnout will be like.

If like here the average age of the owners has gone down so low (you are now an "old" guy) that most do not even hang out here anymore. Meets may pick up again now that all our local covid restrictions have been lifted and the weather is improving but they will all be planned on Facebook so I will never know.
