Jeff,

Glad your first trip to Carlisle was a good one. Did you hit that rain on the way home on Sunday?

I was able to track-down Ken on Friday afternoon and finally put a face with a name.

Great weekend

Paul

Paul;

We left Sunday morning @ 9AM. It was sprinkling until we hit the downpour!

I did not run into Ken but I did see some other folks.

It was a great first time for me. I do think the day and 1/2 was enough for me though.

A big part for me was having some good Posse buddies to hang out with and share the Carlisle experience.

Thanks for checking in Paul and might see you at the next Hooters meet.

I think it was less than 1.5 days for you! Whatever the time it was probably enough for you because I dragged you around through the maze of "flea-market vendors" (with all due respect to those folks) so I could do some "picking". If you to go next year we'll spend more time "grazing" through the Fun Field looking at some great cars and talking to all the folks just hanging out. My "bad" that I didn't get you to the great seminars, autocross, NCRS, and a few other things that Frank and I checked out Friday. I hope the Kerbeck ladies and Miss C@C contest made up for some of the other omissions

Ohhh, so you and Frank did all the FUN stuff Friday! Then you dragged me thru the endless rows of "stuff"!!! j/k

Well, I had a good enough time that I am already in again for next year. For how many days I don't know but I am in.

And except for the endless flea market picking, you did a great job guiding Frank and I!
