Okay, the die is cast.

The Dodge, the trailer and the Midget are going to spend the rest of August in Utah.  I'm flying into Denver on the 5th, Nick and I will take his pickup to Utah, and we'll make a show of it at WOS.

Or, if it's still wet, head back to Boulder and get drunk.

This is GREAT news for me as Lynda and I will be at WoS!

Can't wait to see the Grenade get the record!

See you on the salt,
Gregg

Admiral -

We're 14 parsecs out, my first mate has drunk her weight in Romulan Ale, audio communication devices are down to 20% power, and despite strict adherence to the prime directive, it appears as though the aliens have become Packer Fans.



Will initiate audio communication on stardate 308383.6529363268

Rain?  I had so much fun, the racing might have been a distraction.

Go figure.

Locked and loaded for WOS.

Let's try it again.  :cheers:

Same here for the 608!  The best Bonneville ever with only not accomplishing the racing part.
We decided to leave the race trailer in UT. But than the car owner decided that we got burned with that last year. And we turned around in Cheyanne and went back to get the trailer. So 4 trips across Wyoming for this trip! But the more you travel there the more you see.!! Check out the Ames Memorial some time. And the Virginian Hotel in Medicine Bow.

Chris:

Did you know that the Midget is in Huntimer Photography's newest Bonneville Calendar?  Not a feature car, but...

I got mine from Mayor Mike at CarQuest.

Nancy says that at the SCTA sales trailer this past week or two -- they didn't have the Huntimer calendars.  I guess he never showed up with his supply of them.  I like getting one each year to hang on the wall 'tween dining area and kitchen -- so I can see it every time I walk around in the house.  Gotta get another son - this one is done at the end of August.  There's almost always a car (cars only, dang it) that I recognise and know well - and the MM will be fine for this house.

What I meant to say, Mr. Smarty Pants, is that I've got to get another calendar.  Smart-Acura.
