Is he bringing that jet engine that he built? That would wake up a town.

What a great weekend!! perfect weather, roads, food, location and most importantly great friends. We meet some new ones as well along our travels and we had a grand total of 18 who participated in one way or another during this event. The guys even met our famous little Annie and they were not disappointed. Photos will be posted and videos will be on YouTube as soon as I figure out the editing program. Thank you to all who participated

We had a spectacular weekend. Got in some great "Face Time" with our Crossfire cousins, got a valuable technical session in Paul's garage when Paul and Mario repaired my broke seat heaters (6 places where the wires were broken) and a well planned and executed tour through Quebec's Laurentians! Great food, wonderful hospitality and accommodations at Paul and Gayle's beautiful home. The highways were really picturesque and I will definitely make the trip to Ottawa along the secondary roads again. It was WAY better than the 401!

Looking forward to seeing everyone at Norm's party on July 11th or earlier - maybe at OneEighty's BBQ/Car Show in Caledon East!
