I'd like to go but it gets light too late and the pending forecast doesn't look good.

That's Joey's car.......he's one of only a very few in that group that doesn't think he's better than everyone else - he's a really nice guy

Ike....Read the plate Slower........Its a Lambo...so there you get the BULL reference......you can figure the rest for yourself. But its not a statement about him being "better" then anyone. Its more of a request for his Brooklyn Girls!


Now you get it!!!!

Oh and by the way.......well....you will see.

I haven't been there yet this year but it usually breaks up earlier than that.
I was tempted to set the alarm when I saw this thread last night but I don't have a front plate bracket on the Vette and there is too much salt and sand residue left on the roads for the GTO to come out of the garage. It was nice to sleep until 9:00 instead.

I was hoping it would be dry by this morning, but when I woke up it was still light rain out east. Starting to get a little nicer now, might take a ride, but too late for Captree. Maybe next Sunday

The first might be a good idea, but just a little bit later. maybe around 10:00 would be good. Anybody else up for that?
