Default Looking for a Cruising Buddy in Maine!!

Looking for a Cruising Buddy in Maine!! - The summer is here and my Vette needs a friend. I am in the Rockland Area - are there any other Vettes in my area? I have seen a few - one was a nice black convertible on RT 90 heading out of Rockport as I was coming in, on the 4th of July that gave me a wave.. we are you!! lol

I was just at Samoset Golf Course in the Vette today :-) I will look for that in October. October is about the time of year I put her away for the winter, but hell, I think I might keep her out a little longer this year lol

Just a reminder.. the Samoset, in Rockport Maine, is hosting the "New England Corvette Caravan Reunion" Thursday, Friday and Saturday October 15, 16, 17 2015.

I will be attending, but I do not think I will be attending the Banquet. If I can troll around the outside area and meet some people and make some contacts, that would be more beneficial for me, in the long run

Is anyone else attending?

Four of the Connecticut Posse who were among the New England delegation on the Corvette Caravan to Bowling Green last year will be attending the reunion. There should be around 100 Corvettes at the gathering. If you spot us, stop by and say hi.
