That show is on the other side of the USA for me!! I am going to a car show in Mackinaw City Michigan on 26-29 Aug. But 1st up is my car club (Badger State Vettes) car show on 22 Aug. Open invitation for all to visit our website at: www.badgerstatevettes.com We are also on Facebook!!
OMG ! Pssssst, hold it down there guys. Is that the famous Rootbeer show ? The wifes been pushing me to go to that for years now. I didn't think that was until next year. That's 3 days drive away for me for gosh sakes. I mean, we just got back from the Gathering. I just don't have it in me . maybe I can get her to settle for the A&W rootbeer show down here in Lodi, Ca. It's the original A&W.

I have been the last 2 years and had a great time. I would not be able to come up the night before as in the past, I would have to come up early and come home that night. I am trying to get the day off and if enough of the group is going I would try my best to be there. Its the C3 group that makes it the best otherwise it would just be another show
I'am not heading that way until I get off work on Saturday, hope to pull into Issaquah around 9:00PM. Going solo wife does not see any fun in going over and driving back Sunday with no shopping allowed. I'am staying and Motel 6 and figure any one who wants can meet there around 07:30 on Sunday if thats OK
Vette(s): had a really nice one. sold it to a good friend. Purchased 2004 custom coupe in Feb. 2009 did not tell anyone here until August 2009. BAD I KNOW.

Bruce, well heres the deal. IF its raining when I get up at 5am I am going back to sleep. If it aint, I will meet you up there by 7:30 at Motel 6.
Now before anyone accuses me of being anal about not driving in the rain and being "that guy", I really dont care about driving in the rain. That why the car has wipers. But what I am is lazy and I have the car pretty darn clean right now and I dont want to spend the time to clean it up again. I would much rather be lazy than anal.
