Was nice meeting you guys today, that was lots of fun. Great burgers, great cars, great people! Looking forward to next time.

tunaglove - you sure got the jump on me on the way back and you were pulling me to boot. I need to buy some go fast goodies for next time.

Nice pic Winston!

So I go to The Lions Tap right after working on this really heavy, greasy, nasty book binding machine. I'm all covered in grease but I want to go, so I wash up a little, throw paper on my seat, and hit it. We had a good time, and it was great meeting fellow enthusiasts. Then when I get home my wife yells "WHAT, DID YOU **** YOUR PANTS???".

I had grease all other my butt while I was walking around the bar. HAHA, Classic.

Hi Mark, a get together is just not the same without you. We managed to have a good time anyway. Met some new guys. Looking forward to the next meeting - maybe in the fall? By the way, my wife and I are leaving in about an hour for an even bigger get together - in ST. LOUIS! Take care, Steve.

Hey everyone! May and I took the black coupe to Winona today (Sunday) to see the Nina and the Pinta (replicas of two of the ships Columbus sailed to America). We saw a yellow Crossfire parked on the street in downtown Winona and an aero blue roadster on HWY 61 going north on the way home just north of Red Wing. Anyone here on the forum? Couldn't catch up to the person driving the roadster on 61 - do the blue crossfires drive faster than the black ones? Hope we all can get together one of these weekends!

Rudy just called me. FP's in town. They're meeting at Big Bowl in Edina tonight. He'll be around tomorrow in Waconia. Can we do it? Mark - Greg - Tunaglove - Kalway - Alzilla - anyone?

FP, Rudy and myself got together @ Big Bowl last evening.


We had a fine meal, and some laughs.
As always, it was a pleasure to see friends.

Wish some of you could have made it, as I will be busy tomorrow and not able to get to Waconia.

sure Zilla, would love to get together with a bunch. Greg, Steve, how 'bout you guys? Maybe a nice weekend trip up to the Blue Goose in Garrison? Or a run down to Mankato? There's a nice Italian restaurant there, just off Riverside, so a fall trip down 169 would be nice
