We are in our campground in North Carolina and we were planning to stay through the meet, but in our absence from home sustained 100 mph winds wrecked havoc at our home, so we are going home. I really was looking forward to see y’all. Maybe next spring.

Joe and Debbie Byrd

I'm sorry to hear about the possible damage to your house, Joe. Good luck, and we'll miss you.

Just saw this on the national news. Hope your damage is minimal but very sorry to read of this Joe. Bad timing for sure but I’d pick up stakes too to return home. Safe travels back.

Lost the shingles off the roof, water damage in the house, neighbor’s tree got the corner of the house, at least that’s what kids are saying, other neighbors tree got my shed, lots of triple parts in there. Most importantly the triples are with me, I’ve taken them for an extensive ride through 8 states, they have enjoyed the ride but never made it out of the trailer.

Sad to hear Joe. Hopefully, it won't be as bad as you think. You and Debbie will be missed. I was going to try and talk you into selling your sweet running S3.
