Ok now I will start to pm all whowant to come down. I got grill with 3/4 tank full. We need to make a list of what we need & what time to start the cook out.I am going to get my mom to make some rice w/beans.
I'll wait to see what I need to get because I got a Costco membership. I'll
start to make directions later tonight or tomorrow.Talk to you later.

I guess I'll miss this one too. I can't seem to join a Corvette get-togather here since I got up here 2 months ago. Now, thanks to the guys who vandalized my car, I will miss this one too. My younger brother lives in New Haven, CT and I go down there on most weekends. I will try and make it anyhow. My brother's got an M3 and I'll have him try and join us.

Hell, bring the car!! Unless it is UNDRIVEABLE, no one is going to rag on you! If they do ( we will rag on them!! ) Serously, PLEASE show up! I will be there!! Should be a GREAT GET TOGETHER!! I live in Gales Ferry and I see Vette owners on the road every day! (Yes i wave if i'm in the Vette) It would be great to meet some of you! If any of you have any C5 Issues, it will be a great time to do a ONE ON ONE and maybe get the problem resolved!!!

See ya all there!!

The car is at the shop now waiting for the insurance situation to be sorted out. I don't think I'll get it back for at least another 2 weeks. Now, I'm driving a huge Dodge Ram 4 door Hemi 4x4. It would be the exact opposite of what I'm driving now. It is a riot to drive, though. I might show up in that. I'd definitely love to come. Hopefully, there shouldn't be a problem.

Come with the truck. Bill C and I will be there. We both see Vettes in SE CT, some wave, most don't, but we never get to meet them.

Thinking about it, I have to drive out to CT with the truck anyway to pick up a couch and a bed. I'll be out there.

Bng99, would you PM me with directions from New Haven, CT and an address? Also, what would you like me to bring? Thanks, guys for making me feel welcome.
