Default Great time a old town

Thanks to Signguy for organizing the whole thing.... We had a good showing and a great time,even four mid-years and a nice black '67 GTO joined us We tried to convince people that it was an 83 corvette prototype. It is fun to meet the people you know on line. We need to get together more often. Wait.... I think I can still hear Oliver's car... :lol:

It was good to meet some of you guys. My neighbor with the black Goat (83 Corvette) told me to express his thanks for letting him park with us. He had a great time too. Above all, I want to thank Signguy for his hard work in organizing this very successful event and thanks to Old Town for having us. It was a lot of fun.

as far as goin to disney instead of the roller coasters goes please let it be known that i was just trying to be a gentleman as my wife herniated a disc in her neck about a week ago and i didnt feel it was fair to have fun riding roller coasters all day while she sat and waited for me...
besides...as far as whimping out goes...it seems to me that when i invited you to join me on the "big swing thing" (or whatever you call it) YOU are the one that whimped out!
not to mention that little "trailer" thing...or should i not mention that here on the forum??!!?? LOL
just kidding with you Don :jester we should get together soon and cruise down to the Treasure Coast Mall thing...
but would it be OK if i actually DROVE mine over there or will i have to trailer it??!!?? LOL

Count us in for a get together. We don't mind driving our car as long as the A/C works and there are enough Amoco stations along the way. :lol:
