WooHoo..... What a rush it was today. I don't IL new what hit them when we cut loose. Temp was in the 70's and not a cloud in the sky. I even got a left arm tan. I can't wait to do it again. Thank you Lou & Peggy, Franc & Cathy and Scott & Shawna for coming out and helping to make today a great success. It was the most fun I've ever had on 4 wheels. We will definately do it again soon.

Hey Lou, at least you don't have to clean critter blood off you wheels like Scott. LOL Thank again man we really enjoyed you and Peg's company. Next time I'll make sure we don't stop at any antique stores where she can find a set of glasses to go with the dishes.

Don't worry Floaten, we will save you a spot in the line-up. Just get your wife in the passenger seat of one for a test drive and she will be sold.

Just wondering if 50 or 100 is in reference to driving speeds or highways. LOL

This is one of the only two seaters i fit in... I can't wait i am taking her out for a test drive next saturday... i just don't know if i should wait until after the house because of the loan and hidden costs. And i still need to sell my stratus. We are searching stl for a house around 150 with a 2car garage. We are first time home buys so we are trying not to get in over our heads.


P.S. you know a really fun place to take a cruise on a sunday is Lambert's in Sikeston(sp). its a real nice drive down highway 55

Great shots...yep, need to get that red one of mine in there and add some real color.

If the wife is with me, you'll see me in the rear, she's not a fan of speed after our time in Germany.

Trip digits may not be a reality though, I tend to take it easy as the roads around here have a lot to be desired.

Let us know with a new link as soon as possible. Maybe we can actually meet up with that crew from Chi-town sometime....if we plan it well enough, might even be able to get the group together at a Cards & cubs game.

I'm in a lot of the pictures, but was able to edit most of them out.

I'm the old gray geezer behind the SSB roadster, in the group shot at the Lodge.
Or the one playing pocket pool in front of the old store in Clarksville.

Damm, I'm also the gray hair geezer , again playing pocket pool, standing next to Lou's ssb Coupe in front of the Atlas Cafe. I got to edit some more.

Kell,

Congrats on your first Meet, it looks like it was a Great Success!

Franc,

Great Pics, I really enjoyed them all. We could use someone like you at our Dragon Meets to get those Great non - Professional Photos!

Why don't you come with the Kell & the St Louis Metro Group for the Fall Meet, it will 'Knock your sock off'?

Thanks again for sharing the Meet with All of us!

I procrastinate on just about everything. I'll get around to going bald eventually.

I'm the oldest of five brothers and am the only one with hair. Even my son is bald.

Go figure.

Thanks Silver fox. The pics were my wife Cathy. She is really good but it goes to her head sometimes. There will be no living with her if ya'll keep complimenting.

It was, without a doubt, a lot of fun for four cars. Gas and lunch for under $50. Could not have done Six Flags for that, and it would not have been near the fun.

As for coming to the Dragon with Kell, he's a nice guy but can get his own dates. Cathy has a date with our grandchildren that week end so it is kinda iffy right now for her. No offense Kell, but I'm not that desperate yet.

I may have to come alone.
