Here's the pics and such from the meet. Wish more folks were here again, and wish more of the locals could have joined in on the every day things, maybe next year. It's funny, some of us will drive 6 to 12 hours a few times a year to go to meets and have a really good time, but we can't get some of the members here to drive 5 to 8 hours once a year to have one.

Oh well.

Pics got jumbled up while uploading, I may go through later and label some more rows, but this is from the trip. Really, we had a great drive. Hope more come next year.

reminds me of europe. well, only because it's cloudy, but in poland we share a beautiful landscape with czech republic & slovakia. i remember when i was younger we would drive in two cars to croatia and on the way stop by the creeks for picnics. it was really awesome, especially when my dad bought his new SEAT Cordoba brand new so nice to have a car you love around you.

yeah one day could mean two or three cars because everyone is working.

hey i would for sure go and ride with you guys if i weren't 3 days and 5 hours away haha. we're out there, i just wish we'd all somehow have the money and time to bring our cars down there and party. it would be sooo awesome. nice to see some photos of you and your family.

my family is going to have to put up with my love too... as much as they will probably hate it, this car will always be with me.

You can get a permit at 14 here if you work on a farm. He won't get his for another 2 years, but I figured the car needs a bit of work, it's paid off, might as well get him interested now.

^that's insane. that's about four more hours than i drive to florida!! if you're going to be at nopi at the right time, i'll take i-75 and participate because it would be on the way. maybe we would be able to see that new aquarium supposedly the largest in the country or something.

but that is if you're willing to drive that again and i'm sure you know a thing or two about the hazards of driving. i'll keep an eye out next time you go wink1.gif
