Thanks to Gary for his help in getting me there!
After seven years and three Crossfires - finally met him and got his signature on my glove box door. I'm one of the cool kids now.

Glad you all had a great time. Trucking kept me out too late Friday. I wasn't able to get the car ready, and besides was too tired for more driving. Sorry I missed it. Was looking forward to meeting Eric.... If things don't get better with the cars, I think it may be time to sell them both. Really not getting to enjoy them or the meets anymore. We will see if we can finish the coupe rear end gear, but that isn't happening either. Changes may be coming.

I think we can chalk up this year's Dream Cruise as another success. The weather cooperated, the parking was perfect and we had a great group of attendees. Thanks to Valky for setting it up and to Lisa & CICCI for hosting the Fri night BBQ. This GTG just keeps getting better each year.
I'm told that Becky made it back home today in her purple Prowler and that Iamfink2 is currently terrorizing northern Michigan......

This was my first WOodward. I've told several people at work that if they are even slightly a "car person" they owe it to themselves to go up there at least once.

I didn't even have my car with me and I had a really fun time. I will likely be back next year - maybe have the car this time, not sure.

Thanks to all, mostly to Jim, Valk and Lisa for their efforts. Thanks to Tabitha and Ed for the loan of their yellow roadster for me to drive and to Frank for buying lunch Sunday.

Another fun weekend with all at the WDC
Hats off to Lisa for a wonderful BBQ for us at her house on Friday night and also special thanks to CICCI for the financial contribution to cover much of the costs to have such a nice dinner etc

The weather was pretty good Saturday and we had 18 Crossfires in Memorial Park
A few others who attended were out cruising Woodward all day

We also had the company of Eric Stoddard who came by again this year to meet al of us and some for the first time
He signed several members cars and was in several photos with us while he was there !!
I have attached a link with the pics I took this year >>WDC 2016

Plans for the front of Memorial Park at 13 mile Rd and Woodward Ave.
This is to be developed on the front section of the 25 acre park next year
