There's already a bunch of early arrivals up here. I took my Vette to lunch today and the parking lot was already too full. I was fortunate enough to find an open space between a C5 & C4. I knew I'd be safe from door dings parked in between them

On the last week end in July, 29,30,31. is the Arroyo Grande Show and Run. It's a great week end event, you should check it out if you have a chance

It seems that a smaller group of Vette owners come up every year as well. But it's typically only a couple dozen. There will probably be somewhere around 500 Vettes up here this weekend with this group.
