When isnt there a big car show at XXX during the summer time on the weekends?

That's one of the best parts about living in this area!

But this weekend's show is bigger than the usual shows I believe.

This Wednesday (and every Wednesday in the summer), there is a Hot Rod GTG at the A&W in Port Orchard. I should have my C5 there. Lots of really neat rides. Goes from about 4 pm to around 7. Best time is about 5-6PM.

When you head home you might drive south along Hoods Canal to get back to I-5, kinda slow going, but well worth the time.
