GMRS radios. FRS will not support channel 21. That is 462.7000mhz if you have a ham radio like I do.

We were looking at doing this, despite a recent Solvang visit.

FWIW: I bought gas at Jim's, just east of the city, before the casino; pricing akin to most of OC, or about 30-40 cents below the comp, up that way.

Eugene-

Please chime in if you and Nancy are joining us on the run again this year. Anne Marie and I enjoyed having lunch with you guys in Solvang last year.

Looks like the new one will just miss this run.

Scheduled to be built next week on Wednesday 5-11-2016 .

A Wednesday car!

The earliest museum delivery is about 2 weeks after that, which puts us right in the middle of my daughters finals and HS graduation stuff, at the end of May beginning of June.
(Daughter and wife want to attend the museum delivery)

After that my business traveling schedule won't allow me to get to the museum until the 13th of June. I'll ship it here instead of drive it. Odds are it will just miss...

Once it arrives I need to get some Xpel installed before I drive it too far.

The only complaint I have...and it's a minor one. We had a spot that we stopped at and reorganized after everyone got spread out.

We then got back on the road and it was at a stop sign/signal...can't remember. The point is, we were back to where we were...spread out.

Wherever that stop spot was...get rid of it!!!

Other than that hiccup...THE CRUISE WAS TOTALLY AWESOME!!! I should know, Pat and I have put on over 200 cruises and this one is "ONE OF THE BEST!!!"

Thank you Valley guys/gals that put this on. The Block of Orange (at least Pat and myself) will be there like last year!!!

SOLVANG here we come!!!

Somehow several of us got disconnected from the rest of the group at that place. We never did reconnect. We had to drive to Solvang by ourselves. We were not happy.

Probably not, photos I have show a date of Jan 2010 but that could be when they were copied. The car that I'm in was sold in 2005 so must have been another one.
