I stopped at the new downtown Palatine affair after work and passed out all 10 C&C flyers I had. Hopefully it pays off?

Em and I went to the Rolling Meadows > Palatine > Mundelein show tonight and spread the word also.....We'll see where that goes
Only about 12 cars when I got there, grew to maybe 25 when we left.

While promoting Corvettes and Coffee..... We waved

I dont like the new location for the Palatine show at all. It's also such a pain in the *** to get to on Friday evening's.

If it rain's, ill be in my wife's dirty mini.

Many thanks to Emily & Kevin for another stupendous Cars & Coffee!

Met some new wonderful folks. And the ones I already knew allowed me to stay!

Looking forward to our lunch next Saturday at TK in Chicago Ridge. Do I need to take I-57 or I-65?

While driving your Vette this week, please be sure to SAVE the WAVE!

Thanks to all of the brave souls who risked life and limb to make it to last Saturday's Corvettes and coffee! We had 16 cars show up and gained a few new attendees. We had 4 cars from Sunburst show up! Thanks guys and gals! A few graced us with some alternative rides, and then there were the die hard Vette peeps who actually got thier cars wet!Oh the horror, my car needs a bath again! Kevins car wash is now open for bidness! Come on over the coffee is brewing!
We actually used all of the donuts yesterday!

The next Corvettes and Coffee is the 26th!

well he just got done washing his car. first time since last summer. i guess that's a start of taking pride in ownership...even if it is a beater.
