Default Gathering in Spring Branch

Me and my buddy (boulty1961) took a short road trip to Spring Branch for a friendly gathering of auto enthusiast. Spring Branch is located just north of San Antonio on US 281. It was more for the road trip for me. I met my buddy in Johnson City and we drove on down. I left the house at 6AM. The weather was great, so you know the top was down. What a ride. Traffic was none existant. Cars began pulling in around 8AM. I met some new people and all were very into their cars. There was quiet a variety there and they were all interesting. I've included some pics for your viewing pleasure.


My 2001 NB Vert on the left. Boulty's 2000 Pewter FRC on the right.

Thanks to 1BAV for posting pictures. I didn't think about pictures, I was just having a good time meeting new people and checking out the nice cars. This gathering is from the South Texas Car Club. This meet takes place about once a month. Come if you can, it's a good time. Nice folks and sweet cars and trucks. It's different every time.

Nice shots. Thanks for sharing.

Looks like a good show. Boulty had invited me and I had planned on coming. On Friday night, we celebrated my wife's birthday. We had some unexpected overnight guests. Sorry I didn't make it.
