Looks like it's going to be great weather this weekend here in the area. I'm near Tower Hill which is about 30 Miles North.  Reconned the area yesterday and they were moving the cars out of the museum into the tent.

 Nice to see those museum pieces rolling around.

 See ya'll Friday AM !

What time do the grounds open on Saturday?  I can't make it until then, but I plan to be there bright and early!  I was hoping to arrive around 7am...

I wanted a Corvette my whole life, but I never dreamed of all the wonderful people I would meet because of it!

OK guys, I just got home from Mid America , it is laid out awesome this year, at least I think so.
 
As far as parking goes...........
 
Turn in Gate 4 and look to the left, you will see a speaker tower with a US Flag on it and three tents in a row.  C3VR parking is right behind that.
 
Adam if your tent falls over, that is the one I didn't set up.. LOL
 
I will be parked right next to you guyz !
 
 
See you all there !!!! Gotta shower and get the Vettes back up there tonight.

I'm here. I checked out the site. It is set up WAY different than the last time I was here. I seems to be a great improvement.  I hope to sign up lots of new members this year!

Thanks to Butch & Jane who stopped by while I was putting up the C3VR banner and adjusting the canopy that MAM provided for our booth for helping me get it just right.  Hopefully no "straight-line-winds" come through the MAM field!

See ya'll tomorrow! (Bright and early for me). I'll have a cooler full of ice cold water for C3VR folks that want it.  It's gonna be hot!

A little slice of heaven for me right now. I just went and picked up a six pack of adult beverages, I got me some Taco Bell, and now I'm back in my quiet (kidless) room.  The calm before the storm, so to speak. I hope to be real busy tomorrow spreading the word about C3VR!  Then, I'm really looking forward to tomorrow night's dinner with fellow C3VR members.  Should be a great weekend!
