Dennis,
Keep a stiff upper lip, accept the help offered, & just keep it up!You have a really good bunch of people down there- give Lawrence Bell in Spring, Tx a call-281-355-0588,& just keep on keep'in on!It will get better, & allow the core members to help you split expenses. If you can geographically locate where your membership is, you might find a more centrally located meeting place to draw more people in. We have a "cell/home phone network" that will pop into action here periodically, & we can gather from 5 to 12-14 cars together in a couple of days or less. You had one of the harder jobs in the Houston market, & I think you have done a SUPER job, so don't give up now- that's NOT the Dennis I met over two years ago in Austin!!
Your friend,
John Russell
