YUP - we forgot that when he took the glove box off to fix it, that meant the light stayed on. He hasn't driven the car for about 10 days so dead battery. He took it for a nice long ride last night after we jumped it so keep your fingers crossed she starts this morning. He also put the trickle charger on last night.

What a nice day. The weather held out too.
Thanks Dave for putting this together. The breakfast at Scarpelli's was good. The twisties and scenic back roads even better.
Thank you to Sergio & Giovanni for putting on a nice show. The food, wine, music were all excellent.
Nice seeing everyone today and meeting some others.

If you missed this show, plan on it for next year, it's worth it.

I'll add my thanks Dave.

Good grub in the am and great route to the wine club.

The wine club has a great setting with a large grass parking area and great facilities for a cook out,( they did the food right ).

All we needed was a few more cars to make this compete with some of the other smaller shows in the area.

Great to see you all and looking forward to our next meeting.

Have to agree with everyone it was another fun day riding with the Posse. Great trip out Dave, thanks for scouting the route and those NY roads were a lot of fun and in much better shape than our own. Thanks to Sergio and the facility, nice venue with good food & of course wine! Only have a couple pics, I'm sure there will be others. Till next time....

Looks like you guys had a good time. Sorry I couldn't make it. Weather forecast showed rain for Sunday for 7 straight days but it didn't rain where you were. Who woulda thunk it.

Looking forward to seeing you all at Marks on Corvette day.

Thanks to all who joined in... Nino; thanks for the weather! You done gud! We (posse) represented more than half the field at the show, so next year, let's bring more cars. Great to see everyone, as usual. When I get a minute to sit, I"ll see if any of my (Deni's) photos were worth copying...wonder where her camera is now.... Later, (off to physical therapy )

Northern Connecticut Posse ROCKS!!!
Glad you guys made it.
I had my daughters dance recital and couldn't make it up there.
My cousin Sergio said you guys were awsome.
I was hoping to meet some of you guys.
I know the weather kept some from showing.
stay tuned, maybe in September another car show at the winery.

Sorry we missed YOU! Your cousins are cool, good guys from N.J., too... Not to worry about attending another show, the roads alone are enough to get us back.. ( good food, too...) Dave
