Parts Obsolete Campout

I just talked to a nice fellow from Portland who has the Speedster itch. I was thinking Emory's might be a good venue to seduce him further if many of ya'll are planning on attending. Can we see a show of hands from those planning on attending with their Speedies?

I will be there, Rich. Henry is coming from BC and I believe Bruce is coming up from Medford. Maybe Steve and Angela too.

Rich,

Yes, I'll be there in a red car but it won't be the flavor you saw me in at last years SOT. Hopefully Bill Helzer from Portland who bought my car will be there with it. See you Saturday!

Bruce

I don't think we are going this year... Steve is really close to painting the cabby plus we have a family vacation to Washington DC coming up pretty quick (the weekend after Parts Obsolete).

By the way, Bruce, at your convenience give me a call please. 601-7390. Time to talk about SOT.

angela

Yeah, Angela, but you'll have the Hoopty at your disposal!

You're awesome Cory, but we'll hold off on that treat until you are there. Not that we have any doubts about "the girl" but the whole "hoopti-ness" is just not the same unless you are there. Steve already thinks you are a 12 on a scale of 1-10 in the cool factor based on my description.

So we'll wait. For you. You're worth it.

what are the dates of the campout this year??

thanks, Jerry

Jerry, it's today and tomorrow.

Rich,

I didn't see you yesterday, did you come over? I left about 4:30 I think. Nice weather and I got the sunburn to prove it!

Hey Bruce

My kitchen and family room are being ripped out Monday morning. I spent the weekend packing cabinets and drawers full of crap into boxes. It's amazing what you find in the back of a pantry in a house you've lived in a dozen years. I really wanted to hit Emory's, but I'm glad I resisted the urge. It's after 10 and I'm not done yet. Contractor shows up at 8:30 in the AM.
I sure hope Scott Sloan doesn't mind Cheryl and me bumming dinners at his house for the next 6-8 weeks.

PS I was able to show my car to a guy from Portland who seems close to pulling the trigger on a replica, so being stuck at home wasn't 100% work. Keep an eye out for Eddie Frager, possibly soon-to-be Beck driver.

Rich, we know exactly what you're going through. We did our kitchen a few years ago. The BBQ and fridge in the garage can be your friends. Good friends! And a stack of paper plates and plastic silverware. The difference, it seems, is that I was doing ours and was highly motivated to get it done quickly (if you know what I mean).

You did miss a very nice day with the cars though. The weather was far better than expected and Gary had his usual complement of beautiful race cars. Oh, and beer was only a buck this year!!
