We had our destinations and plans arranged for this years IDYSD event several months ago... We would rendezvous north of Wichita, drive to McPherson for lunch, and then tour the Mentor Auto Museum in Salina.
The problem? On Thursday, August 31st the Museum folks called and cancelled us - they were going to Wisconsin for a steam car show instead. They didn't care that they inconvenienced us at the last minute, and suggested we return next year on Wednesday, April 6th because some SDC Chapter was coming down from a northern state on a bus.
I wish I knew which SDC Chapter was coming, as I'd warn them about the flakiness of the Museum folks. There is no excuse for this kind of crap.
Thank goodness the Kansas Auto Racing Museum in Chapman offered to host us instead. It's a little further to drive, but their doors will be open.
