Toledo, OH, Fri. & Sat. shopping the swap meet, drooling at the car show and wearing ear plugs at the drags!

Rolled in yesterday at about 9:00AM & stayed well past 5:00PM

I am blessed to be only about 13 miles from the track, so I didn't even have to get up early! I got to see a bunch of friends from all over the country I only get to see once or twice a year.

It was a great day, weather was nice & the smoke was barely noticeable. I won't be there today as I promised the Wife we would be at the "All Class" high school reunion today since we missed it the last two years, because it was scheduled on a weekend that we are at a Lloydfest Car show in Kentucky.

I hope to be back Sunday morning, but hope the weather holds out for you guys & gals as today is the "Big Day". A bit bummed that I won't get the G.P. judged, but I didn't build it for trophies so no biggie.

God Bless
Bill

Another event done. Got to meet Bill. A few new men names escape me now. We had fun. Nothing I needed to buy. Watching racing. Todd did well got Best Engineered Car for his 63 Lemans. Sunday we got suite passes. Watching racing eating ice cream. After about 4pm. Bobbie Badder comes in , out of breath. The elevator is BROKE! She wants us to go down. She is saying the elevator can go down,once no problem! Some us decided to walk down the steps in the stands!

Great To Finally Meet You Bob!

Time sure does fly, I'll bet we sat there for more than 2 hours "shooting the bull". After we split I watched about 15 minutes of racing, when I got back to my car there was a flyer on my seat with a note asking me to call about putting the G.P. in the Dayton Concours d'Elegance Sept. 20th. I will call him today, Laura got all excited about it. LOL

I had a great time both Friday & Sunday, even though most folks left late Saturday or early Sunday.

God Bless

Bill
