Default Thunder Road 2009 Picture Thread!

First I want to thank Jan for making this happen.
I had no Idea Jan had turned this into a Birthday celebration for me.
I am so blessed to have friends who took the time to share my birthday with me and all of the people who care so much about the hobby we love so much. I cant begin to thank everyone enough who found it in their hearts to do the little things to make this day so special for me.
Drew, Patty, Mike and Rebecca.. the cake was unreal and I will be eating more of it tomorrow I loved it. Ed and Ruthanne, Thank you so much for the card and the gift of texas roadhouse..You know the way to my heart Kevin, Trish even though I didnt open your gift yet, I know I will love it and thanks so much... Linda and doug, Thank you for the card..I love it. Finally, Sal and Rachel thanks so much for the card and gift as well as the Monavei and making time to spend this day with me..you guys are the the best.

Thank you everyone :o

I had a great time all. Great food, great fun, and of course, great cars!

The best part of things like this is the people you get together with. You are all wonderful people, and it makes gatherings like this that much more fun and looked forward to.

Thanks to Mike, Rebecca, Drew, Patti & Uncle Ed for helping me be sneaky & pull this off. Mr. Drama tends to ask A LOT of questions, so I'm surprised we got away with it!

Crusher, thanks for bringing the lovely weather & gracing us with your presence And also a very special thank you goes out to our celebrity guest Mr. Zaino & his lovely date, Rachel.

To everyone else, you guys just being there was enough to make any day special!
