Supafly,
I enjoyed the heck out of that trip!
You and the rest are good drivers. When we got there I was really
glad we started early.

Even with the breakfast break at Panera's it was still good to arrive
early. The meet/show started at 11AM......but....Where they put me.......
the West grass lot was filled by 11 and they shut it down completely
by 1130. Some of you got the fence. I was 2nd car, second row. Loosely
counting there were 13 rows of about 25 cars each.

Over 400 cars....and we were not part of the main show. People
were coming in and out all day, but around 1-2PM, I heard someone
say he had to park a mile away.... I understand why people were breaking
out the skateboards and the scooters. Some of the scooters were works
of art by themselves and the pro photographers were doing some shots
over by them. I bet some of them were going for magazine submissions.

I looked at cars in the West grass lot first and then caught the cars
wrapped around the building lots. I started to walk that mile to check out
the North grass lot......The flow exceeded the lot and folks were parking on
both sides of the North-South street. There were way over 1,000 cars. By
the time I got back to the smokehouse, lucky for me, people had gone
outside for the giveaways....there was no waiting to take my order.
Food was great.

One of the most photographed cars last year...the one with the "wood"
engine compartment....for this year he had added "wood" rims....that guy is
an artist.-Bob
