Anything happening this weekend?
I'll be home for a visit beginning Thursday. Anything happening this weekend?

It would be nice to catch up. Hope my car will start. It's been hibernating in my garage since January...

I need a V8.... Been driving a 1.8l Audi. Sometimes feel like I'd need to put a knee on the seat and push with one foot.

Weather is getting nice here now... I seen Aston Martin's, 911's, Ferarris, all the time. Plus the occasional Vette, Mustang, Alpha Romeo, and Lambo.

Would much rather see a pack of Cobras!!

Pack of Cobras is possible if it's dry. Chance of shower Sunday but that's a long way off.

It was really great seeing you guys yesterday. Thanks for coming out.

WoW wasn't very wow but it was nice to hang out with John for a while.

We were going to take the horse-drawn carriage ride but we had already left the parking lot...

I should be back in July/August.

Tak, sorry I missed you. Only was there for a couple of hours on Sat. The show was much smaller than I was expecting.

"Town of wheels" is an apt description....Maybe "Very small town of wheels". Seemed to be about 20 - 25% of its former size. Way too many low riders from Dorchester. Where was FFR? All I saw was Tak and Arrowheads cars (both very nice). My boys and I will skip this next year...

Yes, quite sad really. I would have thought a big showing of FFR in the home state. Still, it was kind of cool for my kids to be able to see their car there.
